Bob Macy Book

There are not many people in Oklahoma County who do not know who Bob Macy is. A lot of people know of Bob Macy as the white-haired gentleman who wore a western-style string bow tie who sent a lot of people to prison. Others may have thought of Bob Macy as their hero, the man who protected them and their families from the murderers, the rapists, and the robbers.

During the 1980s, people knew there were a large number of vicious crimes happening in Oklahoma City and that Bob Macy was their guy to clean house. On the other hand, not many people know that Bob Macy was a football player, a police officer, a cattle raiser, and a Washington, D.C., bureaucrat.

This is an engaging illustration of The Man behind the String Tie.
