Washington County Sheriff's Office issued the following announcement on Apr. 18.
On Sunday, April 17, 2022, at approximately 1:30 a.m., 22-year-old Bryce Bybee was found unresponsive in his bed by a deputy doing a routine round at the Washington County Jail. Deputies and medical personnel attempted life-saving efforts but were unsuccessful. An autopsy was completed by the Oregon State Medical Examiner’s Office later in the day, but a cause of death has yet to be determined. The Washington County Violent Crimes Team responded to investigate the death, which is standard protocol for any death of a person in custody. However, out of an abundance of caution, the Sheriff’s Office asked Beaverton Police Department to conduct an independent outside investigation of Mr. Bybee’s death. That investigation is ongoing, and no other information is currently available. Beaverton Police Department will release any updated information related to the investigation as it becomes available.
