LEBANON, Ind. -- An Indiana homeowner accused of killing a house cleaner who mistakenly arrived at his front door was charged with voluntary manslaughter on Monday in a case that could test the limits of stand-your-ground laws. Curt Andersen, 62, could face anywhere from 10 to 30 years in prison and a $10,000 fine if he's convicted. He was being held in the Boone County Jail pending an initial court hearing. Officers found Maria Florinda Rios Perez De Velasquez, 32, dead on the front porch of a home in Whitestown, an Indianapolis suburb, on Nov. 5. Authorities said the Guatemalan immigrant was part of a cleaning crew that went to the wrong house just before 7 a.m. Andersen shot her through the front door with no warning about a minute after hearing someone trying to unlock the door, accord
