It was Peterson and his officers who heard through informants that Mayfield allegedly was dealing in stolen property. It was disclosed during questioning Tuesday that in the nine-month investigation: The Racine Police Department paid Nunn, a convicted felon and career criminal under the department's system of assigning points for crimes, $700 cash for his help. Nunn is Mayfield's cousin. The Racine Police Department now is paying $135 a week rent to, harbor Nunn in protective custody. They also are allowing him $15 a day for food.

Petersen said there had been indirect threats on Nunn's safety since his role in the investigation was revealed. The FBI paid Nunn's rent for about three months at a furnished apartment on Layard Avenue. While -Nunn was living there, Petersen testified, friends and associates of Nunn's stole the furniture and sold By Kevin Kraft of the Journal Times He hasn't appeared before the Racine Police and Fire Commission, but Bobby J.

Mayfield, 47, a 17-year police vet-ieran, was suspended with pay March 17 after Carvino filed administrative charge? accusing Mayfield jof baying and selling stolen proper-jtyfselling marijuana, attempting to ibuy food stamps and falsifying re-Jports.

Mayfield has not been charged in with any crimes. The second session' of a hearing onto the case began Tuesday night Jwith Theodore Harris, Mayfield's attorney, questioning Sgt. Daniel Petersen, who heads the police department's Anti-fencing Unit. A marina development on the right of way between Water Street and the State Street bridge, Jorgensen said. All but about a half-mile of the estimated 9.7 miles of track (some areas have double tracks) will be removed, Jorgensen said.

The remaining half-mile will be used by Western Publishing, which, has said it needs use of the track for its expanded business. A spur line is proposed to connect the half-mile of Milwaukee Road track with the Chh cago Northwestern tracks. The Racine City Council's public works and services committee Tuesday amended its application for funds to repair the 6th Street viaduct to conform with that plan. Public Works Commissioner Fred Larson said today the original application called for filling in the railroad cut and building a road across the fill. "But now we have authorized inviting engineering for reconstruction of the viaduct with a passage' for the railroad track," Larson said; Under the federal hazardous bridge program, 80 percent of costs of the construction would be provided by federal funds.

After about seven months of negotiations, an offer by Railroad Properties Associates to buy about six miles of abandoned Milwaukee Road right of way has been accepted. Railroad Properties Associates was notified today that its $755,000 offer for railroad property from Willow Road in Mount Pleasant to Main Street in Downtown Racine was approved, said Lanford Jorgen-sen of the Downtown Racine Development Corp. The downtown corporation and Racine Area Manufacturers and Commerce joined to form Railroad Properties Associates. Jorgenseh said Railroad Properties Associates now must complete its sales agreements with about 30 different companies along the tracks, which have agreed to buy parcels. In all, about 78 acres of land will be purchased from the railroad.

Most of that will be sold to the adjacent landowners, Jorgensen said. Azerian Sons marina, 800 Water and Pugh's Peerless Marina, 1001 Michigan have formed a partnership and plan a The examiner, A' Kenosha police officer, sad he had asked Nunn to sit still, but Nunn engaged in acts of purposeful noncooperation Harris said Tuesday the sales of stolen items to Mayfield were couched with offers of sex by a female informant, Mary Klopstein, 26, of Kenosha, who testified for about 30 minutes Tuesday. The hearing will resume at 7 p.m. June 14 with further questioning of Klopstein. Klopstien said she was a registered informant for Racine police and had been called by a member of the Anti-fencing unit to assist them.

Klopstein said she posed as Nunn's girlfriend who had access to a hijacked truck of stereo equipment stashed in Kenosha. Transcripts of tape recorded conversations between the three indicate that Mayfield may have been interested in having sexual relations with Klopstein, and that Nunn said Mayfield would have to first buy the property. Peterson disagreed when Harris asked if that did not amount to inducement and entrapment. Mayfield eventually paid $25 for a $300 car stereo, Petersen testified. About a month and half later, May-field allegedly bought another tape player for $75, Petersen said.

it. Petersen denied Nunn had stolen the furniture and sold it, or that Nunn gained from the sale. Police later recovered the stolen furniture from various locations. Nunn had pending charges of burglary, theft by fraud and two counts of shoplifting dismissed in December. Petersen said police asked that the shoplifting charges be dismissed in exchange for Nunn's cooperation.

He said they did not request the burglary charge be dismissed and that it was dismissed for an entirely different reason- In an affidavit, Nunn says his motivation for helping were indications by Racine police that they would help him with charges pending against him. Racine police bought about $700 worth of tape, players which they gave to Nunn to sell as stolen property to Mayfield. Mayfield allegedly paid $100 for the items, which Petersen testified police have not seen since Mayfield allegedly bought them. Nunn may purposely have tried to disrupt a lie detector test he was given in March in Kenosha.
