A 32-year-old Filipino-American nurse, Melissa Jubane, was found dead in Oregon after being reported missing on 4 September 2024. Jubane, who worked as a cardiac nurse at St. Vincent Medical Center, had last been seen on 3 September when she reported for work. Concern arose when she failed to show up for her shift the following day, prompting her family and coworkers to notify authorities.
The Beaverton Police Department confirmed the discovery of Jubane’s body but has yet to disclose the exact circumstances surrounding her death. In connection with the case, police arrested her 27-year-old neighbor, Bryce Jonathan Schubert, on charges of murder. Details on how the authorities linked Schubert to the crime remain undisclosed, with the investigation still ongoing.
Jubane had just returned to her apartment in Beaverton after marrying her fiancé, Bryan, in Hawaii the previous week. The couple had celebrated their wedding on 24 August 2024, in a ceremony attended by family and friends. Jubane’s sudden disappearance and tragic death have left her family and loved ones devastated.
Before she was declared missing, efforts to reach Jubane through her phone and financial records yielded no new leads. Police visited her apartment, where they found her car but noted the absence of personal items such as her bag, wallet, and keys. These discoveries further heightened concerns about her whereabouts.
Authorities have stated that Schubert is being held at Washington County Jail and is scheduled to appear in court on Monday. In the meantime, the Beaverton Police Department has expressed its condolences to Jubane’s family, friends, and coworkers, recognizing the impact this tragedy has had on the local community.
The investigation into the circumstances surrounding Jubane's death continues as the community and her loved ones await further details from the police.
