The judge's ruling was made after a hearing Friday in which Eagle's attorney, Gerald Whitcomb, had sought to have evidence in the case suppressed. Three officers, Deputy Sheriffs Brian Schoening and Fred Pharris and Shelton Police Patrolman Mark Oliviero, all testified they had gone to the residence of Mr. and Mrs. David Striplin on Lost Lake Road with a search warrant April 25. The officers all testified that Mr. and Mrs. Striplin had been arrested on drug charges and had been taken to Mason County jail and that, after they had been transported away in a patrol car, five officers remained at the house to search The officers said that while they were searching, they observed a truck drive in the driveway and the driver get out and come to the door of the house. Oliviero testified that he had answered the door when Eagle knocked and that Eagle had asked if Mr. and Mrs. Striplin were home and that after being told they had been arrested on drug charges and officers were searching the house, Eagle said, "Oh, no," and moved away from the door hurriedly. The officer said one of the officers had called to Eagle to stop and that he had observed Eagle appear to throw something into an area between the house and an outbuilding. He said officers looked for what had been thrown and that Eagle was subsequently arrested. Schoening testified he had been at the door with Oliviero when the door was opened after Eagle knocked and that he was the first one out after Eagle started to leave and that he told him, "Hold it a minute; I want to talk to you." Schoening testified he had started after Eagle and caught up with the man at the corner of the house and tfiat he was subsequently searched to determine if he had a weapon or Andrick J. Grewe, 18, an inmate of the Washington Corrections Center, was sentenced to an additional sentence of a maximum of 15 years for grand larceny when he appeared before Judge Frank Baker in Mason County Superior Court Friday. Grewe had pleaded guilty to the charge, which involved the theft of some lumber, and was o ut o n personal recognizance while a pre-sentence report was being prepared when he was arrested and convicted of forgery in Yakima County. He was sentenced to the corrections center from Yakima County. Judge Baker ordered the sentence he imposed to be served consecutively, following the sentence from Yakima County. Shelton attorney Gerald Whitcomb, who represented Grewe, recommended that the young man be given a deferred sentence on the charge here, stating he did not think an additional sentence would do Grewe much good. The crime he was charged with, as a first felony offense, would not have been something the young man would have been incarcerated for if it had not been for what happened in Yakima County, Whitcomb told the court. Whitcomb told the court Grewe had an l lth grade education and did seasonal work when it was available. Whitcomb said he had been told by the young man's employers that he was a hard, dependable worker. Deputy Prosecutor Gary B urleson said the pre-sentence report recommended incarceration, and that the prosecutor's office supported that recommendation. not. Schoening also testified he had observed Eagle throw something between the house and the outbuilding. The officers all testified the officers who were at the house were all in civilian clothes and that when Eagle had first come to the door and been informed they were police officers, he had asked for identification and was shown badges by all five officers. Eagle testified that he was a foreman for a cedar salvage company, and that he had been at work April 25 and had come to the Striplin home to see Striplin about using his truck to haul some cedar. Eagle said after he had encountered the officers at the door he had heard one of them say they had a search warrant and that they were going to search him, too. He stated when he front door, he was afraid of t searched and that he returning to his truck to when he was stopped officers. He admitted he something between outbuilding before officers where he was. The officers had all that the way Eagle was when he left the front not toward his truck.
