HOWALD Of the Keizertimes Calvin Lloyd Macy’s life came to a violent end Thurs- day, Jan. 4, after being struck by a vehicle while walking across River Road North to his apartment on Sandy Drive North. Macy died of a self-infl icted gunshot wound after telling another resident of the same apartment complex that he was “not going back to prison” as police tried to contact him in regard to the vehicle-on-pe- destrian incident. Macy had a criminal history in Oregon that included 15 prior arrests dating as far back as 1969 to his most recent ar- rest in July 2017, according to Keizer Police Department of- fi cials. Convictions for murder, public indecency, carrying a prohibited weapon and being a felon in possession of a weapon were the most severe. Macy was convicted of mur- dering a Salem woman, Susan Cameron, and her 2-year-old son, Shawn, in 1981. The pair went missing in August of 1980 and their bodies were discov- ered about a week later in Wal- lace Marine Park. A coroner later attributed the cause of death to asphyxiation. Macy was tied to the crime, in part, using hair matches from both him and a dog he owned at the time. He was convicted of the crime by a Polk Coun- ty jury and sentenced to two concurrent life sentences with a mandatory minimum of 25 years. Macy fought his prison sentence in the Oregon Court of Appeals on multiple occa- sions with mixed outcomes. On one occasion, his man- datory minimum was reduced Film series delves into income inequality The Salem Progressive Film Series is screening The Divide at Grand Theatre in Salem on Tuesday, Jan. 16. In the fi lm, director Katharine Round, looks at income inequality in the United States and the U.K., dwelling on the human story behind the numbers. The fi lm follows seven people as it explores what happens to everyone when the rich get richer. After the fi lm, Willamette University Professor Emeritus Russ Beaton will engage the audience in a discussion of the topic.

Later the 10-year minimum was over- turned, the 25-year minimum reimposed, and the sentences were made concurrent once more. He was released in 2007 but, by 2017, Macy appeared to be in a downward spiral ac- cording to court documents. In March 2017, Macy plead- ed guilty to a public indecency charge that resulted from him exposing himself to a woman in public two months prior. He was sentenced to fi ve years probation. Two month later, Macy was arrested by Salem police after a woman complained that he exposed himself to her and be- gan pleasuring himself after she woke him up while sleeping in his van with the door open. While being checked into the Marion County Correc- tional Facility, Macy was found in possession of a clear, plastic bag containing methamphet- amine. His parole offi cer rec- ommended a 15-day stint in jail as a result. He was released from jail on June 28 and failed to show up for a court appear- ance in July resulting in a war- rant being issued for his arrest. Between the Marion County warrant for public indecency and another issued in Clacka- mas County, Macy was fac- ing a bail amount of at least $120,000, said Keizer police offi cials. KPD Deputy Chief Jeff Kuhns said that by the time police offi cers entered Macy’s apartment in the early morn- ing hours of Friday, Jan. 5, he had likely been dead for hours.

GO TO KEIZERTIMES.COM Almost half of Keizer residents would be willing to support a 75-cent property tax increase to support a public library in the community, a city survey showed. The Library Task Force will be crafting a ballot proposal to establish a new library district. Keizer is the largest city in the state without a library. 15 YEARS AGO Teens accused after meth seized at MHS Police arrested four Keizer teens after offi cers uncovered a scheme to sell methamphet- amine to students at McNary High School. Offi cer Dan Kelley determined that a stu- dent, 15, had brought almost an ounce of meth to McNary. Another student, 17, was found to have nine bindles of the sub- stance packaged for sale - be- lieved to be the largest quantity of a controlled substance ever confi scated at the school. 20 YEARS AGO Teen cornered, beaten with bat As many as eight attackers cornered a 17-year-old boy and beat him with fi sts and a baseball bat outside the Keizer Burger King. The attack was interrupted when the manager at Burger King, Michael Gervis, came out and chased off the group.
