In 1913 George W. Iman was convicted of adultery in Pacific Co. Washington. Notes from the Walla Walla State Penitentiary records, "In December 1912, George Iman, while working at a logging camp at South Bend, Washington, got mixed up with a married woman there. Mr. Iman and his brother had been boarding at the woman's home while working in the camp. The woman was Mrs. C. J. Olinger (Note: Her name was Sarah Ann "Annie" [Blair] [1876–1940], wife of Charles Harrison Olinger (1873–1939) of Pacific Co. Washington, a Reverend's son), and she was about 35 or 38 years old, and had three children. The woman's husband was away at work at the time the alleged adulteries were committed, but the adulteries were witnessed by two of the Olinger children, a girl aged twelve (Edna Olinger) and a boy aged four (Bennett Olinger). After a few incidents the children reported the situation to Mr. Olinger who then ordered Mr. Iman out of the house, never to return. Mr. Iman then went to Roy, Washington where after a short time Mrs. Olinger joined him. From there Iman and Mrs. Olinger went to Tacoma, Washington where Mrs. Olinger filed for divorce from her husband. Mr. Olinger responded by having Iman arrested for adultery." George Iman adds, "I was accused of adultery on or about the 14th of January 1913. I then went to Roy, Washington to visit my sister and after a while there I was arrested, I think on the 9th of March 1913. From Roy I was taken back to South Bend for trial and there found guilty." For the record George Iman's lawyer added a character reference, "Mr. Iman is a great fellow to talk, he is harmless as can be and not any too bright, an inoffensive citizen and in no way dangerous or vicious."
After the verdict of guilty in the adultery case George Iman was sentenced to Walla Walla State Prison at Walla Walla, Washington for an indefinite term of six months to two years. His inmate number was 6929. (Note: 6929, the same inmate number as Oscar Bevans, who some years later also served time for adultery at Walla Walla State Prison.) According to prison records, Mr. Iman had a fifth grade education, began smoking tobacco at the age of 18 years, drinking alcohol at the age of 19 years, which he continues to drink in moderation. His first arrest was at the age of 45 for obstructing a highway. He has mild hemorrhoids and at one time had lung fever (pneumonia).
After serving about eight months George was paroled on 23 December 1913 into the care of his brother, Louis F. Iman. In a letter to his parole officer dated 2 June 1914 George requested permission to visit a hot spring spa in Mendocino Co. California for treatment of a painful spine condition. His request was denied by the parole officer, "… the very least you can expect to do is to keep your contract with the State, in view of the generosity with which the State has treated you. In due time, if you do this, you will receive your regular release."
