The investigation involves a book about Frank Sinatra and compact discs allegedly sold to two Shelton stores that sell used recordings. Deputy William Adam of the Mason County Sheriffs Office took charge of the investigation at the request of Jim Vach, a U.S. Postal Service inspector. Adam said Vach asked the local authori- ties to look into the matter be- cause the U.S. attorney won't prosecute cases involving less than $30,000. Vach turned over 221 applica- tions made to BMG Music Com- pany as part of an offer of nine "free" CDs to customers who agreed to purchase several more. "The suspect sent applications in, received numerous CDs in the mail and did not pay for the ship- ping or any minor charges that came with the 'free CDs,' " Adam wrote in his statement of prob- able cause. Adam said he went to Malick's house on September 7 and was told by the defendant that he was late on the payments and the CDs were "kind of on loan." Adam then talked to Grace Kent at Discount Disc, 1428 Olympic Highway South, Shelton. He said that she said she had met Malick at another location and had paid $20 for four CDs he said he'd gotten from a man in Olym- pia. She said she reported Malick to BMG Music and that she thought he also sold CDs to another store in Shelton. The CDs in question include recent recordings of music by the late great composers Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Franz Peter Schubert, the soundtrack to the move Schindler's List and The Best of Sister Sledge, Three Dog Night's Greatest Hits, Blues Brothers 2000 and records by Paula Cole and Emerson, Lake and Palmer. Malick was identified Friday in Mason County Superior Court in an investigation of theft in the first degree. Judge Toni Sheldon appointed Charles Lane to be his defense at- torney and found probable cause for his arrest. She released him on personal recognizance pending arraignment on September 30. Superior court roundup: Bail set at $25,000 in domestic violence case A Shelton man faces potential charges of felony harassment and assault in the wake of a domestic- violence incident last week. Steven Lloyd Vangilder, 40, of 461 East Day Springs Road, Shelton, was identified in Mason County Superior Court on Wednesday, September 15, on po- tential charges of two counts of felony harassment and two counts of assault in fourth degree in connection with allegations of domestic violence. Judge Sheldon appointed Lane to be his attorney and found prob- able cause for his arrest. She set bail at $25,000 pending arraign- ment on September 23. "There is a concern regarding the safety of the community," Sheldon said. ON THURSDAY, during the motion calendar in superior court: • Chuck Thomas Shonkwil- er, 45, of 3700 Johns Prairie Road, Shelton, was ordered to pay restitution of $414.05 to Firemed- ic Service and Mason General Hospital. He was convicted last year of burglary and assault in the second degree. IN MONDAY'S superior court proceedings: • Clifford Andrew Housden, 36, of 30 NE Madrona Avenue, Tahuya, was identified in an in- vestigation of domestic violence. Judge Sheldon appointed Lane to be his defense attorney and found probable cause for his arrest for felony harassment and unlawful imprisonment. She set bail at $25,000 pending arraignment on September 30. • Daniel F. Boone, 38, of 431 North Schooner Loop, Belfair, ad- mitted to violating the conditions of his probation by not serving four days of jail time.

Richard Ryan Rehe, 30, of 721 East Lakeland Drive, was identi- fied Tuesday in Mason County Superior Court in an investiga- tion of taking a motor vehicle without the owner's permission. Judge James Sawyer found probable cause for his arrest and appointed Ronald Sergi to be his defense attorney. Rehe was re- leased on personal recognizance pending arraignment. Dale Fassio reported the car stolen about 4 p.m. on Monday. After giving deputies of the Ma- son County Sheriffs Office a statement, he called his wife, Sandra, and asked her to come pick him up, according to a state- ment prepared by Undersheriff Gary Crane. While Mrs. Fassio was on her way to pick her husband up she spotted the car outside the Belfair Pawn Shop. She used her cellular phone to call 911 for police assis- tance while keeping an eye on the car and the person inside it, ac- cording to Crane. "Prior to the deputies' arrival at the location of the car, the Bel- fair Pawn Shop, the suspect fled on tbot," Crane wrote. Deputies talked to a person working in the pawn shop and were told the suspect had just pawned an item there. The shop- keeper identified the suspect as Richard Rehe. He was arrested by deputies after a brief search of the area. Sawyer scheduled arraignment for October 21. The arraignment was put off until next month so that Rehe can undergo surgery for a medical condition.
