EVERETT — A homeless sex offender’s release from the Snohomish County Jail has been delayed, according to a statement released from the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office.
Timothy Addison McCamey, 24, was convicted of failing to register as a sex offender in August. He was sentenced to eight months in jail and a yearlong supervision. He was scheduled to be released Friday, but that has been delayed until Jan. 19, sheriff’s spokeswoman Jan Jorgensen said.
McCamey, a Level 3 offender, has a long history of sex offenses, beginning when he was 12. He has been in and out of jail for numerous convictions, including child molestation and unlawful imprisonment with sexual motivation. In most cases, the victims were young girls who were known to him.
Anyone with questions should call the sheriff’s office at 425-388-3393.

Freight train hits car: A Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway freight train struck a car early Christmas morning, but the car had been abandoned and there were no injuries. The accident delayed the train’s four locomotives and 70 freight cars bound from Tacoma to Chicago for about two hours, railroad spokesman Gus Melonas said Friday. There was no damage to the track and minimal damage to the locomotive, but the crash destroyed the car. No other details were available on why the car was on the tracks or who abandoned it.
