Tennessee Man Charged With Stealing Over $50,000 From WWE

By Nick Paglino

According to Newstimes.com, Tennessee native James Dewayne Bass, aka Kelly Monique, has been extradited to Stamford and charged with stealing more than $50,000 from WWE. The following is an excerpt from the report:

James Dewayne Bass, also known as Kelly Monique, 34, of Prospect, Tenn., was charged with first-degree larceny and four counts of second-degree forgery.

During an arraignment hearing Thursday, Stamford Superior Court Judge Robert Genuario set Bass' bond at $50,000 and continued the case until March 22. Genuario transferred the case to the Part A docket, where more serious crimes are heard. The judge set bail without prejudice, which allows Public Defender Howard Ehring to argue for a lower bond amount at a later date.
