ber 21, 2006. She reportedly told
Detective Brett Rutherford of the
Mason County Sheriffs Office that
she had gone on rides with Foster
in the past but this time he pulled
into a barn off Cloquallum Road,
kissed her on the cheek and tried
to unzip her sweatshirt and then
"make out" with her. She report-
edly said she pushed him away by
kneeing him in the stomach and
walked to a residence on West
Plug Mill Road where she had
been staying. The alleged victim
and Foster are cousins.
Judge Toni Sheldon set bail at
$15,000, noting Foster had two
active warrants at the time of his
arrest and was under the supervi-
sion of the Washington State De-
partment of Corrections. "Even
DOC did not have a good fix on
where defendant was at," she com-
mented.

pled guilty to an amended charge
of criminal trespass in the first de-
gree.
He had been charged with resi-
dential burglary with domestic-vi-
olence designation, defense coun-
sel Ronald Sergi explained, but on
further review it was a stranger's
house he entered. "He thought
that his ex-wife Laurie Fuller was
inside that house," Sergi added.
In his plea statement Fuller ad-
mitted that on October 30, 2006 he
entered a resilience at 708 North
10th Street in Shelton owned by
Len and Jeannie Williams.
The sentencing range for a gross
misdemeanor is up to 365 days,
Judge Sheldon explained, with the
state recommending a sentence of
credit for time served. She sched-
uled sentencing for June 11.
Erica Richelle Robertson,
18, of 111 North Salish Court,
Shelton, pled guilty to theft in the
first degree, resolving a 2006 case.
In her plea statement she wrote,
"Between September 2 and October
23, 2006 I stole over $1,500 from
Wal-Mart where I was an employ-
ee." According to court documents,
the store had surveillance tapes of
her taking $2,470 from a till on 15
separate dates between September
1 and October 23.
Judge Sheldon said with no
prior felony history the standard
sentencing range is from zero to
90 days, with the state recom-
mending part of the sentence be
converted to community service
hours or served on electronic home
monitoring. She said there is no
community supervision under the
standard sentencing range but ex-
plained Robertson is also eligible
for the first-time offender sentenc-
ing option. This would provide for
a sentence of from zero to 90 days
while adding 24 months of commu-
nity supervision.
Robertson is scheduled for sen-
tencing on June 11.
If Foster posts bail, Sheldon
said, he must provide a street ad-
dress to the jail and the DOC. She
ordered him to have no contact
with the alleged victim and told
him he cannot go to places where
children congregate.
In other cases in superior
court:
Gerald D. Smith, 23, of 17661
North Highway 101, Shelton, also

ROBERTS has recently been released from prison as homeless, and has registered
as a Transient Sex Offender with the Sheriff's Office for a 11/13/06 conviction
for pleading guilty to Child Molestation 3rd Degree, Mason County Cause #06-
1-00238-5. This conviction stems from when ROBERTS was 42 years old, he
sexually molested a 14-year-old girl that was known to him. The molestations
occurred over a period of about a year. Due to all of the above factors ROBERTS is considered the
LOWEST RISK -- Level 1, BUT, since he is Transient, he is leveled as a 3, which is a HIGH
RISK.
NOTE: ROBERTS will be on DOC supervision until 5/25/08 and he is not to have any contact
with minors (under 18).
ROBERTS is assessed by the Sheriff's Office as a Level 3 Sex Offender only while he is
homeless. This is the highest level given to a Sex Offender, meaning that he is at a HIGH RISK
to reoffend.
Roberts has given his location within Mason County as:
Transient within Shelton, WA.

He was arrested May 7 by
Detective Harry Heldreth of the
SPD, who said he was investi-
gating a report of a disturbance
at the Fred Meyer store at 301
Wallace Kneeland Boulevard.
Steve E. Smith, one of the alleged
victims, reportedly said the inci-
dent began on Olympic Highway
North where a man in a blue Ford
pickup almost hit Smith's vehicle
twice as it attempted to pass and
then followed Smith when he
pulled into the parking lot.
Smith and his passengers, Matt
C. Sorg and Angle M. Briggs, ran
into the store. The driver of the
Ford, later identified as Bertel-
son, followed them inside the
store, holding an axe above his
head and threatening to use it.
A store employee provided the
license plate number of the Ford
and Bertelson was arrested at
the Lucky Dog Casino on High-
way 101 north of Shelton.
