More Exclusive Background Info On Julias Anderson, Named By Source As "Funny Mo" In Nizzel George Shooting...

Creative stock photo, blog post by John Hoff

Julian Anderson, age 15, has been named by a confidential, high-placed source as "Funny Mo," the second juvenile shooter in the shocking murder of Nizzel George, age 5. A new and informative Star Tribune article discusses the feud behind the shooting, click here, but does not provide the real name of Funny Mo.

In an earlier article, this blog was able to dig up information about Anderson's mother, but came up short looking for info about Anderson's father. This was due to having an unverified spelling for the name of Anderson's father.

With the spelling now verified, (and corrected) information has come my way...


Julian Anderson's father is Ernest Larnard Frieson, DOB 8/18/78. He has a minor rap sheet in Minnesota, as follows:

Information linking Ernest Frieson to children by a woman named "Anderson" turns up deep in the guts of Google, in a cache of information that has changed in the meantime but still exists as a "snapshot" of a page, click here for source.

On April 1, 2009, in a Report of the Committee on Finance in Cook County, Illinois, numerous billings by public defenders were listed. Amid scores of other cases, the following info appears:

299495 CRYSTAL B. ASHLEY, Attorney, submitting an Order of Court for payment of $540.00 attorney fees for the defense of an indigent defendant, Ernest Frieson, Father, re: the Anderson and Frieson children, minors. Indictment Nos. 07-JA-562, 07-JA-563, 07-JA-564, 07-JA-565, 07-JA-566 and 07-JA-567 (Juvenile Cases).

There is a similar billing for a different date, March 6, 2008. But all the other information is the same except a number at the beginning which designates the entry and the fact only FRIESON is named, not Anderson, as in the entry above.

292534 CRYSTAL B. ASHLEY, Attorney, submitting an Order of Court for payment of $812.50 attorney fees for the defense of an indigent defendant, Ernest Frieson, Father, re: the Frieson children, minors. Indictment Nos. 07-JA-562, 07-JA-563, 07-JA-564 and 07-JA-565 (Juvenile Cases).

Note the father is being billed but these are juvenile cases. It's not clear to me what is meant in this context by "juvenile cases," but public defenders aren't appointed in CIVIL cases, so these don't seem to be child support cases. Is this an instance of "your child is a juvenile delinquent, running wild, so you the parent face charges as well?" Or, maybe what it represents is "you didn't pay child support for so long you're being criminally charged."

In any case,  the mother of "Funny Mo" (Ihisha Chantella Anderson) ended up in Minnesota living at 2609 Colfax Ave. N. and according to my source, the housing is paid for with Section 8 benefits. Unknown if Frieson lives there or how many children, besides Julian Anderson, exist but the billings above mention CHILDREN, plural, so at least two.

It should be noted that 2609 Colfax Ave. N. is NOT one of the two houses shot up in the feud which killed Nizzel George. The Star Tribune names 2524 Bryant Ave. N. as the second house. I have a listing of the police "calls for service" at Funny Mo's house on Colfax Ave. N. and I will be digging more into those addresses and naming the landlords and/or owners in a future post.
