James Marzilli, a Democratic Massachusetts state senator and board member of the liberal Americans for Democratic Action* was arrested yesterday.

The Associated Press has an 11-paragraph story that dutifully buries Marzilli's party affiliation in the very last paragraph.:

Corey Welford, a spokesman for Middlesex District Attorney Gerry Leone, said Marzilli is accused of approaching a woman who was sitting on a park bench, making an "inappropriate comment" and attempting to touch her in a sexual manner, which she forcibly resisted.
