"I don't approve of.them."
"I'm not too much aware of
them but I don't think it's a
good idea."
"It doesn't really bother me
as long as it's reasonably
well controlled."
"If they're well controlled I
think they're a good idea."
Man get,; two years for se: :ual assault
By KEVAN MOORE
A Shelton man was sentenced
this week in Mason County Superi-
or Court to 14 months in prison for
third-degree assault with sexual mo-
tivation.
Ryan Bert Rose, 40, of the 500
block of Holly Lane was arrested on
December 16 of last year by Shelton
police for second-degree rape. He pied
not guilty to that charge on January
3, but went on to enter a plea of guilty
to the lesser charge of third-degree
assault with sexual motivation on
January 31.
According to court records, officers
responded to the Capital Hill resi-
dence of the victim at h49 a.m. on Oc-
tober 18, 2010.
The woman "stated that a subject
she knew as 'Ryan' sexually assaulted
her." She then led officers to his Holly
Lane home in an effort to locate him,
but no one answered the door.
The victim told police that prior to
going to Rose's home they were send-
ing text messages back and forth on
cell phones. She told police that after
getting to his house, she was using a
computer in Rose's bedroom and he
came up behind her and grabbed her
around her waist.
The woman said she stood up be-
cause she didn't like the way Rose was
touching her. She said he pushed her
against a wall, punched her shoulder
and then forced her face down onto
his bed. Rose then forced his hand
down the backside of her pants and
sexually assaulted her before she was
able to get him off of her and run out
of the hosue.
The woman said that she left her
purse containing her wallet and a
knife, a sweater and an iPod in his
house before she fled. That property
was later recovered at his residence.
A database showed that Rose was
associated with the residence and the
Woman positively identified him as
her attacker from a photo lineup.
When first interviewed by police,
Rose admitted to knowing the victim,
but said that she had never been in
his house.
"Rose stated originally he was not
home during the incident and was out
all night at the Lucky Dog Casino and
then the Little Creek Casino," a police
report states.
Surveillance video and other evi-
dence, though, showed that Rose had
not been at either of the casinos on
the night in question.
"Rose was reinterviewed and he
admitted that he lied about being at
the casinos that night;" a police report
states. "Rose stated he was at home
and (the victim) was outside his house
but he wouldn't let her in."
Rose then denied any sexual con-
tact with the victim that night and
was arrested for second-degree and
booked into the Mason County Jail.
