Biography
Lacy MacAuley, a Washington, D.C. activist, was arrested during the March 5, 2018 protests against Richard Spencer's event at Michigan State University. Contemporary reporting lists her, under the spelling Lacy Macauley, among those charged with resisting and obstructing police. The case outcome and executed jail-admission and release dates remain unverified.
Date review October 13, 2026: WDIV's contemporaneous report identifies Lacy Macauley of Washington, D.C., among the people arrested during the Monday, March 5 Michigan State event and subsequently charged. March 5 replaces the unsupported July 2 arrest date. Arrest does not by itself establish an executed jail-admission date, and no reliable release date was found. The pre-arrest January 1 release placeholder and court-as-prison attachment have been removed. Conflicting reported ages are not used to assert a birth date.
