    Regional Oral History Office University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Joseph L. Alioto CHANGING THE FACE OF SAN FRANCISCO: MAYOR 1968-1976, AND ANTITRUST TRIAL LAWYER With an Introduction by John De Luca Interviews conducted by Carole Hicke in 1991 Copyright 0 1999 by The Regents of the University of California, the California Historical Society, and the Ninth Judicial Curcuit Historical Society Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the Nation. Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well- informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between the California Historical Society, the Ninth Judicial Circuit Historical Society, The Regents of the University of California, and Kathleen Alioto. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes.

ANTOINE MACKEY et al., (Alameda County Super. Ct. No. 160939A, B) Defendants and Appellants. This case involves the brazen daytime shotgun murder of prize-winning journalist Chauncey Bailey, as well as the murders of two other men, Michael Wills and Odel Roberson. Codefendants Antoine Mackey (Mackey) and Yusuf Bey IV (Bey) were charged with all three murders. (Pen. Code, § 187.) Mackey was also charged as a felon in possession of a firearm (§ 12021, subd. (a)(1)),1 and Bey was charged with shooting at an unoccupied vehicle in a separate incident that predated the murders. (§ 247, subd. (b).) In a joint single jury trial Mackey was convicted of two counts of first degree murder (those of Bailey and Wills), and Bey was convicted of all three first degree murders, with special circumstance findings of multiple murders on each of the murder convictions for both defendants. (§ 190.2, subd. (a)(3).) Mackey was sentenced to two life terms without possibility of parole, and Bey was given three life terms without parole. 1 Undesignated statutory references are to the Penal Code. 1 Both defendants appeal, asserting error in both pretrial and trial proceedings. With respect to pretrial rulings, both defendants claim a change of venue motion was improperly denied and argue tracking evidence from a global positioning system (GPS) should have been suppressed. Mackey further claims a severance motion should have been granted.

Rarely do two people see an event the same way, particularly if that event is sudden, violent, and frightening. A writer is fortu­ nate when he can interview a dozen people regarding a single oc­ currence and through them develop a consensus of what actually took place. Even then, in the writing of it, he is going to displease some of the people, some of the time. This book is a reconstruction-as accurate as the author can make it~f a series of particularly terrible crimes perpetrated on randomly selected victims in San Francisco during a 179-day peri­ od late in 1973 and early in 1974.

  • Appendix 1: Methods
    Appendix 1: Methods rime, according to one useful definition, is any act of commission or omission C“in violation of a law commanding or forbidding it,” to which a penalty involving fine, imprisonment, or death is attached.1 That definition embraces a broad variety of activities, ranging from petty theft of a candy bar, to insider stock trading (much in the news these days), to the ultimate act of unlawfully taking the life of another human being. One definitional breakdown, that is used by the U.S. Department of Justice in its annual compilation of crime in the United States (Uniform Crime Report or UCR), is to divide crimes into those usually or potentially accompanied by violence (murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault) and property crimes which, although considered serious, do not usually involve personal violence (burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and, more recently, arson).2 It was the seeming upsurge of violence thought to threaten the citizenry’s collective personal safety that commanded national attention in the late 1960s, set- ting in motion the massive examination that has since ensued. For that reason, most of the studies on “crime” conducted in the last several decades, including this one, have focused on crimes of violence. When researchers began to look to the past, they found that usable records for most types of crimes were spotty at best. One notable exception was the crime of homicide. Most societies have attempted to record the “ultimate” crime in some way, albeit often in ways that make the records less than totally useful to modern researchers.

Two cadets walking to the grocery store were stalked and shot by the Zebra killers. Misguided members of a black religious group were incited to attack individuals because of their skin color. The shooting had a significant impact on not only the College for Officer Training but also influenced the territorial headquarters relocation to Southern California. 15 God’s Blessings in the Former Soviet Union The collapse of the Communist Soviet Union opened the door for Salvationists to fill the empty longing in hearts indoctrinated in the secular society. One officer couple from the Western Territory was able to open doors to allow The Salvation Army to establish a 01 foothold in three former communist societies.
