A Washington County jury in Hillsboro on Tuesday convicted 24-year-old Jordan Ray Beyer on 15 counts, including rape, sodomy and luring a minor. Prosecutors say the case centers on the sexual assault of at least four women in multiple Washington County communities. Beyer is set to return to court for sentencing in July.
According to the Washington County District Attorney's Office, the guilty verdicts capped a multi-week trial. Jurors convicted Beyer on 15 counts tied to the rape and sexual abuse of multiple victims, and sentencing is scheduled for July 20, 2026.
The investigation first ramped up in February 2025, when several women reported being raped or sexually assaulted by Beyer, who was living near Banks at the time. As outlined by the Washington County Sheriff's Office, a grand jury indicted him in March 2025, and deputies later arrested him during a traffic stop on Highway 26 just east of Highway 6.
Prosecutors Say Attacks Followed a Disturbing Pattern
During trial, prosecutors told jurors that Beyer used physical force and threats, including threats to victims’ families and at times a firearm, to carry out the assaults. “The defendant is a prolific sexual offender who, over a period of several years, victimized at least four female victims,” the district attorney’s office said in a written statement.
Sentencing Ahead and Call for Additional Tips
Investigators say they believe there may be additional victims who have not yet come forward. The Washington County Sheriff's Office is asking anyone with information to reference case number 50-25-1043. Local residents can also call Forest Grove non-emergency dispatch at 503-629-0111 to report tips, per the City of Forest Grove.
What the Convictions Could Mean at Sentencing
Some of the charges in the case, including first-degree rape and first-degree sodomy, are among the serious sex offenses that can carry mandatory minimum prison terms under Oregon’s Measure 11. According to OregonCourts.org, the final sentence will hinge on statutory penalties, the state’s sentencing-guidelines grid and any aggravating factors such as the use of a firearm, which prosecutors highlighted during trial.
