On November 10, 2017, 37-year-old Kenny Kalugin of Gervais was found dead in a car parked in an alley in Salem, Oregon. Investigators determined he died of multiple gunshot wounds in what was treated as a targeted act of violence; the scene was later linked to a planned robbery arranged under the pretense of a drug transaction.

Within days three people were connected to the killing. Jose Ricardo Barboza-Manzo, 21, was arrested November 13 after a SWAT standoff at a Tillamook County residence. Vanessa Garcia-Beiza, 25, was taken into custody shortly after. Zachary Urton, 37, was arrested November 21 following a police chase. Court filings state Urton admitted shooting Kalugin multiple times, Barboza-Manzo was involved in the robbery plot, and Garcia-Beiza drove the others away after the shots.

The case progressed through criminal charges tied to the fatal robbery. Does anyone have information about Kalugin’s movements that night or about the meeting arranged for the purported drug transaction?
