Total of 80 years for rape attempt

HILO » A 52-year-old Big Island man convicted of trying to rape a 12-year-old girl has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for each of four counts of first-degree attempted sexual assault.

The terms for Peter Kalani Bailey are to run concurrently.

But Circuit Judge Glenn Hara also ordered Bailey to serve the sentence after completing a life sentence for the 1979 shooting death of 17-year-old Carol Olandy. She was found dead in a Leeward Oahu pineapple field.

Bailey was paroled for the murder in January 2003. His parole was revoked when he was charged in the case involving the 12-year-old girl.

Bailey attacked the girl in the office of the Hamakua Coast Assembly of God Church in 2007. He was the church's choir director, and she was a member of the choir.
