PRISON: Suspect kept in contact with
victims despite police investigation
The second victim told
police that she had met Myers
through another underage
victim and it led to the sexual
relationship.
Myers

regularly
supplied her with marijuana.
The third victim was
only 13 years old when a
sexual relationship developed
between her and Myers.
Myers was 19.
She later recanted the
allegations,
but
police
presented her with text and
Facebook
messages
that
appeared to confi rm a sexual
relationship.
UNWILLING TO STOP
Myers initially denied
contact with any of the girls
when he was contacted by
police. He described the
victims as acquaintances that
“have a crush on me.”
When presented with
messages that appeared to
confi rm sexual relationships,
Myers told police “I wish it
never took place” and “there is
not much explaining I could
do.”
In the two months before
pleading guilty, the Marion
County District Attorney’s
Offi ce
received
three
anonymous phone calls from a
young girl shaking and crying.
The caller reported that Myers
was continuing to contact
underage girls online and in
person. As a result, a release
agreement was revoked.

Keizer raced towards the new
millennium by completing
major
projects,
tackling
education issues, and watching
development continue at a
brisk pace. The Keizer Heritage
Foundation completed an
unprecedented 90-day fund-
raising drive, netting more than
$250,000.
Deputy District Attorney
Alexandra Overton wrote
that Myers continued to
manipulate his victims after
the investigation asking them
to “cover for him” while he
continued to prey on them.
During a psychological
evaluation, Myers continued
to blame his victims for the
relationships that developed.
“All of these victims had
diffi culties at home, all of
them were runaways. The
defendant preyed on their
vulnerability and continued to
prey on their naivete when he
began relationships with all of
them … knowing they had no
one else to turn to,” Overton
wrote.
Myers will have to register
as a sex offender and he
retains the right to appeal his
sentence.
