In Oregon, the law requires an external body to investigate when police use deadly force. As such, the Washington County Major Crimes Team is leading this investigation. This is a group of seasoned investigators, who are all trained to investigate the most serious and complex types of criminal matters.
Although we have members on the team, they are specifically excluded from this investigation because of our direct involvement in it. This is standard practice, as is the fact that the investigators will not consult with or receive any permission from our department as they conduct their thorough review of the facts. Their task is to follow the facts, wherever they may lead, and record them accurately.
