Decision delayed on condemnation proceedings along proposed power line route
Apr. 14—EPHRATA — Grant County Public Utility District commissioners will delay a decision on beginning condemnation proceedings for property along the route of a projected power line between Wanapum Dam and Quincy for six weeks. Commissioners voted to table a resolution that would've started the condemnation proceedings at the April 8 meeting, following testimony from residents along the proposed route. John Rylaarsdam, one of the property owners, said in a later interview he told commissioners that from his perspective, the selection process was flawed and there have been additional problems with the process since. "My main frustration is the fact that they have other options, and they're unwilling to look at those. That's extremely frustrating for me," he said. The new line, known as Route 4b, will provide additional power from the dam to customers in the Quincy area, and PUD planners evaluated a number of options during the selection process about two years ago. The route chosen crosses land that's mostly in crop production between Frenchman Hills Road and George. The PUD is in negotiations with property owners along the route for easements for the power lines and access to them. Utility district employees requested permission from commissioners to start condemnation proceedings for properties where landowners have refused access to determine where poles might be placed. Commission Chair Terry Pyle said commissioners don't want to vote on a condemnation resolution, according to a PUD press release on the meeting. The vote originally was scheduled for late April. The six-week delay will push it to May 27. Rylaarsdam said he thought he and his neighbors received inadequate notice about the selection process. "There were four choices then, and 4b wasn't even an original choice," he said. "That was kind of an add-on (to the original options), and they made that decision very late in the game. We were all unaware of it until after they had already made the decision." In a letter issued in February, commissioners said the PUD had provided what they considered adequate notice throughout the selection process. The easements will take about 4.4 acres of his property, Rylaarsdam said, and the PUD offer is about $20,400. Rylaarsdam said PUD policy limits the payment to about 20-25% of the property value for an easement. He thought that was inadequate, he said, given the terms of the proposed easement. "Also, in their documentation in the contract, it frees them from any indemnification. If something happens there, they're indemnified from it," he said. In their February letter, commissioners said the PUD is willing to work with landowners to reduce the intrusion as much as possible. Pyle said during the meeting that it's difficult to proceed until PUD officials have the information they need to determine the actual placement of power poles, which requires access to the proposed route. "Without understanding where the poles go, we have nothing to talk about," he said. "It's not going to do us any good to negotiate an easement without having an idea where those poles are." Commissioners will talk about the power line and the options at a workshop at 1 p.m. May 20 at the PUD headquarters, 30 C St. SW, Ephrata.

OnlyFans Model Allegedly Murdered Client While Filming BDSM Content
Originally appeared on E! Online An OnlyFans creator is facing a murder charge after an alleged sexual encounter gone wrong. Michaela Rylaarsdam was charged over the 2023 death of Michael Dale, according to a criminal complaint obtained by E! News. An investigation into the matter determined he died of suffocation after a paid sexual encounter with Rylaarsdam, according to an Escondido Police Department affidavit obtained by local FOX affiliate KWSB-TV. Dale, 56, allegedly reached out to Rylaarsdam, then 29, in March of that year and paid her over $11,000 to perform BDSM acts in his home near San Diego the following month, the Los Angeles Times reported, citing the affidavit. While Dale appeared intoxicated upon the OnlyFans model's arrival, she fulfilled his requests, including wrapping him 'like a mummy' in saran wrap and gluing a pair of women's boots to his feet, per the affidavit. Four hours after the encounter began, the mother of three—who created content under the pseudonym Asshley SinCal—called 911 and proceeded to perform CPR on Dale as first responders arrived, the Times reported. When detectives examined her cell phone, they discovered videos featuring Dale—who at that point was struggling to breathe—that police said were taken for her OnlyFans page, according to the outlet.

'He also appeared to have had saran wrap wrapped around his neck tightly.' The affidavit also said that Dale's head was sealed in the bag for at least eight minutes, per the outlet. Rylaarsdam told police she had never engaged in fetish behavior before the encounter and denied placing anything over his head. Paramedics transported Dale to a local hospital where he was pronounced brain dead the following day and taken off life support several days later, KWSB-TV reported. The San Diego County Medical Examiner's office later ruled his death a homicide caused by asphyxia, according to the Times. As for Rylaarsdam, she has pleaded not guilty and is being held without bail at the Las Colinas Detention Facility in San Diego County. E!

OnlyFans model suffocated SoCal man while filming Saran Wrap fetish session, police say
As Michael Dale lay with a plastic bag, Saran Wrap and duct tape sealed around his head, Michaela Rylaarsdam sat next to him with a vibrator and a cellphone filming content for her OnlyFans page, police said. Now, the adult entertainer and mother of three has been charged with murder. In April 2023, Dale, 56, paid Rylaarsdam, 29, more than $11,000 to come to his Escondido home and perform BDSM acts, according to an arrest warrant affidavit filed by the Escondido Police Department. When she arrived at 6 p.m., Dale appeared intoxicated, but nevertheless she proceeded to spend several hours engaging in fetish acts with him. Dale had several extreme and unusual requests, according to the affidavit. He wanted her to wrap him up "like a mummy" in Saran Wrap. She obliged. He wanted her to Gorilla Glue a pair of women's boots onto his feet. She obliged. But investigators concluded there was "no evidence" that he "ever requested Rylaarsdam to place a bag over his head and secure it, which eventually caused him to suffocate and die." She was arrested on Feb. 19 and has pleaded not guilty. She remains at the Las Colinas Detention Facility in San Diego County, where she is being held without bail.

Detectives found several troubling videos on her cellphone of Dale struggling to breathe, including some taken minutes before she dialed 911 at 10:10 p.m. "He had duct tape over his mouth, a plastic bag over his head, more saran wrap around that, and then duct tape wrapped around his face and head, securing all the layers to his head," the affidavit states. "He also appeared to have had saran wrap wrapped around his neck tightly." His head was sealed in a plastic bag for at least eight minutes, according to the affidavit. The San Diego County medical examiner's office concluded that the cause of death was asphyxia and classified the manner of death as homicide.

Housewife Charged With Killing a Man During a Shoot For Her OnlyFans Page, and the Details of His Death are Crazy
A California housewife who operates an OnlyFans page is being charged with a work-related crime. And the details are like something out of a crime procedural show. Michaela Brashaye Rylaarsdam reportedly wrapped her client Michael Dale in duct tape and Saran wrap, like a 'mummy,' while filming a consensual BDSM fetish video. According to the New York Post, the 55-year-old man paid Rylaarsdam $11,000 for her services after contacting her through an escort business. Authorities said the incident took place in April 2023 when Dale asked the married woman to glue women's boots to his feet and put his head inside of a plastic bag. Rylaarsdam, who also runs a stripper agency and OnlyFans with her husband Brandon, told cops her exchange with Dale was her first experimenting in fetish behavior, the Daily Mail reports. Rylaarsdam was reportedly performing sex acts on Dale while he was suffocating on the floor, for eight minutes, in a disturbing video captured for her OnlyFans subscribers. She called 911 after he became unresponsive and began performing CPR on Dale. He was declared brain dead the following day after he was rushed to the hospital. Dale was removed from life support days San Diego Union Tribune reviewed an affidavit that revealed Dale died of asphyxiation. And now, the 31-year-old has been charged with second-degree murder. Dan Cohen, her attorney, said his client did not intend to kill Dale, noting that while consent is not a defense it's 'certainly a mitigating factor.' What makes the incident complex is the stark contrast between the accusation and her fetish activity, versus her life on social media. Her Instagram account, whom she shares with her husband, is private, but boasts photos of her children and family enjoying quality time together. The Daily Mail shared snapshots of the married couple smiling on a beach, posing with their children in front of a Christmas tree, Rylaarsdam's bathroom selfies, and a picture of her enjoying what looks like a sporting event with her husband. The woman, who is also a mother of three, was arrested in February 2025, plead not guilty. She is being held without bond while she awaits her trial from behind bars.
