A Seattle man who was arrested outside of Rep. Pramila Jayapal’s (D-Wash.) home on Saturday — accused of threatening to kill her — was released from jail Wednesday night after prosecutors failed to file charges in time to hold him.
When Seattle officers arrived at Jayapal’s home on July 9, they said the man was standing in the street with his hands in the air and a gun holstered at his hip.
Neighbors said he was yelling something to the effect of “go back to India, I’m going to kill you,” according to police probable cause documents. King County prosecutors asked a judge that the man be held on $500,000 bail and argued that a criminal harassment no-contact order should be issued. On Monday, King County Prosecutor’s Office spokesman Casey McNerthney said prosecutors did not yet have the documents from police required by law for a felony charging decision, but the documents were expected to be sent for a charging decision by Wednesday afternoon.However, the man was released from the King County Jail on Wednesday night after prosecutors failed to file charges in time to hold him.
