Family outraged after accused child killer released from McMinn Co. jail

By SONU WASU
6 News Reporter

Knoxville, TN
(WATE) -- The family of a 14-month old girl who was raped and murdered is now lobbying for change after the accused killer, her father, was released from the McMinn County jail.

Authorities say Angel Mae Delashmitt was raped, tortured and killed. Her father, Mitchell Delashmitt, was charged in 2003 after an investigation. He's been in custody until now, when his confession was thrown out.

Family members are outraged, saying Tennessee has lax laws when it comes to child abusers.

...
In a written confession to investigators, Mitchell Delashmitt, said he was watching porn, smoking a joint and drinking when he sexually assaulted his 14-month old child.
...
The autopsy report states that Angel died of blunt force trauma to her stomach. She also had injuries consistent with shaken baby syndrome.

I won't let my anger take over my keyboard and say what I want to happen to him.
