Former St. Louis County prosecutor faces personal crisis as son pleads guilty to charges

Former St. Louis County Prosecutor Bob McCulloch, known for his tough stance on crime, now faces a personal crisis as his son, Matthew, pleads guilty to charges related to a shooting at a school Halloween party. Matthew McCulloch, a police officer, was diagnosed with bipolar disorder after the incident, which involved him firing shots while threatening attendees. He accepted a plea deal that includes six counts of endangering children and other charges, with sentencing set for March 14. The case raises questions about mental health and justice, contrasting Bob McCulloch's past prosecutorial decisions with his current situation as a father. The judge will consider a pre-sentence report before determining the sentence.
