A Lewis County Superior Court Judge set bail for a Centralia man facing two counts of first-degree child molestation at twice the price requested by prosecutors Monday.
Bail for Jeffrey A. Bedsole Jr., 32, who is accused of sexually touching an 11-year-old girl known to him, was set at $50,000.
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Brad Meagher requested bail to be set at $25,000 at the preliminary hearing.
Meagher said Bedsole has been cooperative with authorities, but he has a record that includes protection order violations, assault charges and interfering with reporting domestic violence. He didn’t consider Bedsole a flight risk, but had concerns he wouldn’t follow the court’s order.
Defense attorney Joely O’Rourke requested bail to be set at $10,000.
However, Judge James Lawler didn’t think those requests were high enough.
“I am concerned,†Lawler said. “I’m concerned about the community’s safety. I’m concerned about a number of these things.â€Â
If released, Bedsole cannot have contact with the victim or family.
Arraignment and trial setting for Bedsole is scheduled for Thursday.
The Lewis County Jail online roster shows a charge of first-degree child rape was dismissed.ÂÂ
Bedsole allegedly molested the girl multiple times between January 2013 and February of this year.
The maximum penalty for first-degree child molestation is life imprisonment and a $50,000 fine.

FROM THE COURTHOUSE
• A 32-year-old Centralia father of seven was charged today with two counts of child molestation for allegedly touching a young relative’s private parts with his hands and his mouth. Jeffrey A. Bedsole Jr. was arrested on Friday following an investigation that began the week before when the 11-year-old girl’s mother contacted Centralia police. Defense attorney Joely O’Rourke told a judge today Bedsole has a stable residence with his wife and children and been in close contact with his pastor as she argued for just $10,000 bail. Lewis County Chief Criminal Deputy Prosecutor Brad Meagher asked for $25,000 bail for the offenses that have a maximum penalty of life in prison. Judge James Lawler set bail at $50,000. Bedsole works for a lumber company but qualifies for a court appointed lawyer, O’Rourke said. The judge also ordered he have no contact with minors or the alleged victim. His arraignment is scheduled for Thursday.
