Spring Hill, TN – On May 2nd, a Maury County Jury found Clark Baldwin guilty of killing Pamela McCall in 1991 in Spring Hill. McCall’s body was found near Saturn Parkway, close to Port Royal Road on March 10th, 1991. Pamela’s identity remained unknown until April 9th, 1991.
Ron Coleman was the SHPD officer assigned to investigate Pamela’s death. He promised Pamela’s mother that he would not rest until he caught her daughter’s killer. Coleman retired as Assistant Chief of the SHPD in 2002, and Pamela’s case went cold. In 2019, the case was reopened, and Investigator Tommy Goetz of the 22nd District Attorney’s Office took the lead.
There was DNA evidence collected at the scene, but DNA testing was nowhere near as robust as it is today. After over two decades, the crime lab received the evidence; a profile match then connected Clark Baldwin to the murders of Pamela McCall and two other women in Wyoming. Police eventually arrested Clark. Coleman let Pamela’s mother know of that arrest, but she passed away before the case went to trial.
Coleman had the following to say:
This conviction helped bring some closure for Pamela’s brother and son. Both expressed their appreciation for the Spring Hill, Maury County community, and all the different agencies involved for not forgetting their mother and sister. I was able to put the cuffs on Baldwin, ending my 34-year search. We can now rest assured that he will NEVER be back on the streets of our world. In addition, Baldwin will be extradited to Wyoming to face similar charges, and I stand ready to continue to assist in the case for as long as needed. I am at peace for the first time in 34 years. All Glory to God.
The SHPD would like to express its gratitude to all persons involved in bringing Pamela’s killer to justice, including Ron Coleman for his unwavering commitment and tireless pursuit of justice in the cold case of Pamela Rose McCall.
