San Bernardino County’s district attorney said a failure to hold William Shae McKay “accountable for his crimes has resulted in the tragic loss of a law enforcement deputy.”
The gunman who killed Riverside County sheriff’s Deputy Isaiah Cordero this week had an extensive history of violent crime and repeated attempts to evade law enforcement, which one time resulted in the stabbing of a police dog.
Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco and San Bernardino County District Attorney Jason Anderson said the justice system had failed Deputy Cordero. Hutson, a Democrat, was appointed as a judge to the San Bernardino County Superior Court bench in 2007 by then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Before that, she worked as a deputy district attorney from 1994 until her appointment. She was last elected in June 2022 when she ran unopposed.
The house was burglarized while she was briefly gone and McKay accused her of being involved. Prosecutors alleged McKay punched her in the face, took her purse, keys, credit cards and cellphone and dragged her to his garage. McKay and a co-defendant were arrested on March 29, 2021, after leading officers on a 20-mile pursuit, abandoning their disabled car and fleeing on foot, armed with knives. Police initially tried to pull over McKay for driving a stolen vehicle. A police dog was stabbed during the ordeal and had to be airlifted to a hospital.
