Man accused of stabbing King County deputy posts bail, state weighs new release rules

King County sheriff’s deputies are questioning why Daniel McCullough, accused of stabbing a deputy, was released on bail set far below prosecutors’ request. Court documents say McCullough failed to appear for arraignment after his release, prompting a judge to issue an arrest warrant and raise bail to $150,000. He was arrested October 30 after an encounter with deputies in a Shoreline parking lot, as Washington considers changes to release rules.
