According to Q13 News (September 26, 2018) Portland police arrested a registered sex offender after officers discovered a body in a car trunk. Investigators believe the victim is “likely” that of a missing 89-year-old woman.
Marcine Herinck was reported missing on September 19th from her home in northeast Portland. Volunteers and authorities had been searching for Herinck for several days around her neighborhood.
Police said information developed Monday identified 58-year-old Timothy J. Mackley as a person of interest in Herinck’s disappearance. The body was found in Mackley’s trunk during a Tuesday traffic stop.
Mackley was arrested for murder. Mackley is registered as a Level 3 sex offender, according to the State of Oregon Sex Offender Inquiry System.
