The smiling gentleman above is Bob Caldwell, 63, editor of The Oregonian’s prize winning editorial pages for over 20 years.
He passed away suddenly from cardiac arrest after what was described as a 'sex act' with a 23-year-old woman in her Tigard, Oregon apartment.
From what the woman, a student at Portland Community College told police, she started hopping into bed with Caldwell over a year ago, and that the deal was essentially money for school books and other necessary items in exchange for sex.
Police are not going to charge her with prostitution because, wait for it ... Caldwell was unable to pay her on that particular day, for obvious reasons.Caldwell left a wife and children, who amid their grief can be sure of one thing..he died happy and went out with a real bang.
R.I.P.
Look at the bright side. At least this young lady will not have big college debts to pay off.
ReplyDeleteAnother point: Most heart attacks happen in the early AM monday morning while the victim is sleeping. Ask yourself which would you rather die from?
The Oregonian previously erroneously reported that Caldwell had been found in his parked car on Saturday, based on information from a family friend.
ReplyDeletenow why do you suppose that was?
erroneously?
family friend?
if it was a family friend, who gave what story to the family?
or they were just covering up. the media do a lot of that. for each other as well it seems.
