Original Note:
Sitzlack was released after killing his roommate, though it was due to lack of evidence to charge him, in part due to his claims of self defense. He was not released due to bail reform or the judge being soft on crime as the post seems to portray by leaving out this fact. https://komonews.com/news/local/richard-sitzlack-arrested-november-2023-murder-roommate-investigators-king-county-prosecuting-attorneys-office-kcpao-self-defense-claim-machete
