Two Seattle men described by prosecutors as “methodical criminals” are now accused of breaking into clinics, a law office and mailboxes during an identity theft spree.

King County prosecutors claim Duane Nelson, 42, and Randolph Chechak, 47, attacked the credit of more than a dozen people while stealing more than $100,000 during the months-long spree.

According to charging papers, the thieves stole a safe from the office of Thompson & Howle Attorneys on Aug. 14. The safe was packed with client information and personal checks, as well as employee records.
