Police seeking information from shooting location in Washington CO

[Christy Molina]

My name is Detective Christy Molina with the Corvallis Police. I am currently investigating a serious person crime and have received information the suspect in the case left some evidence behind at a popular shooting location in Washington County. The suspect used this forum to find the shooting site. The location is along Highway 26 approximately between mileposts 44 and 46. The GPS coordinates are 45.701542, -123.222356. This area was recently searched by police and evidence was retrieved but we believe some other evidence items may have been picked up before we got there by a random shooter. We are looking for a jacket, a hoodie, and a significant amount of ammunition that may have been stashed in this area. If you have any information about any of this property found between January of 2016 through July 2016 please call me. 541-766-6782 or email - [email protected]

Detective Molina, is this the location and turn out?
Google Maps (https://www.google.com/maps/place/45%C2%B042'05.5%22N+123%C2%B013'20.5%22W/@45.7015452,-123.2242543,798m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d45.701542!4d-123.222356)


That does not appear to be on public forest land. I have not seen anyone here recommend that location on the forum for shooting and our volunteer groups who clean up shooting sites have not been to that location before.

I dont ever remember anyone posting that they found ammunition at any shooting.

Yes this is the exact location. Tax records show the owner to be Longview Fiber Company. The thread discussing this location was written in January of this year and one person happened to mention this logging area as a good place to shoot. Thank you for that information and for keeping your eyes and ears open.

Detective Molina, Can you give a description of this person of interest?

One person of interest/suspect in this case is named Michael Deyette (Aka "Brude"). He was arrested and just recently pled guilty to Murder. His girlfriend, Brooklyn Shepard (Aka "Raistlyn") was also arrested but her case has yet to be adjudicated. A quick Google search will get you both of their pictures. I truly really appreciate all of your responses and willingness to help.

Detective Molina, I would recommend checking into any Logging companies that may be, or were, working in the area, it may be that some one could have found the items you are seeking with out knowing, and if any ammo was found, it likely wouldn't be reported.

Yes these two were arrested but keep in mind they have associates that could have assisted. Thanks again.

Probably all ready did this, but have you checked with local, State, and fed agencies? I know many check in on these areas randomly looking for people trespassing or shooting, or dumping on private land!

Yes we did.

This is excellent I really like the idea we might be able to help law enforcement because of our time spent in the woods. I hope this comes to a good conclusion and only wish I had something past encouragement to offer.

What thread? Can you post link?

 

[BlackRyder]

Hi- I'm not sure if this will help as I live in snohomish county and don't really know the areas discussed but I remembered a thread posted a couple months ago about some found ammo...
The thread was posted in May so it might be before the time of your investigation, here's the link..
AMMO FOUND (https://www.northwestfirearms.com/threads/ammo-found.219599/)

 

[Stomper]

I believe that was at Tri-County Gun Club near Tualatin.

 

[BlackRyder]

Ah. I figured it was probably a red herring. Sorry..
