Thank you Marion County, Oregon District Attorney Paige Clarkson for your support! “Common sense standards should exist for those that serve on key community boards – especially those with direct impact on our public safety professionals who risk their lives every day in service to our community. While I acknowledge there are certainly appropriate ways for those who have completed their full sentences and displayed honest rehabilitation to give back in our County, this is not one of them. Our police and fire professionals have a right to expect better from city leadership.” - DA Clarkson 12/23/25

Five Salem City Councilors (Councilors Irvin Brown, Linda Nishioka, Vanessa Nordyke, Mai Vang, and Micki Varney) created a credibility crisis by appointing and then reappointing a convicted aggravated murderer to both the Community Police Review Board, and the Civil Service Commission, which governs how fire service employees are hired, promoted, or disciplined!

Reach out to your ELECTED City Councilor and let them know how you feel!
