💥 Lane County fugitive arrested after nearly 2 years on the run 💥 On February 17th, 2026, detectives with the Chico Police Department arrested Jack Duane Crist, 48, of Florence, Oregon at an apartment in Chico, California. Crist was wanted in Lane County, Oregon on a Rape 1 conviction, and had led Lane County Sheriff’s detectives on a nearly 2-year search across multiple states. Crist was first arrested in this case in January of 2023, in Florence, Oregon. He later entered a guilty plea with the Lane County Circuit Court for Rape in the 1st Degree and Attempted Rape in the 1st Degree for an incident involving a juvenile victim. In June of 2024, Crist failed to appear for sentencing and a warrant was entered for the original charges of three counts of Rape in the 1st Degree, Sodomy in the 1st Degree, and Attempted Rape in the 1st Degree. Lane County Sheriff’s detectives learned Crist had likely fled to Alaska, but had little information to go on. They continued investigating and in 2024 confirmed he was in the area of West Plains, Missouri using an alias. Before local law enforcement located him, Crist fled the area. Detectives followed multiple leads, finally determining in early 2026 that he had been in Yucca, Arizona for approximately a year. Unfortunately, he had again left the area. Detectives determined he was likely in Bly, Oregon, east of Klamath Falls, and quickly moved in. On February 17th, detectives served a search warrant with assistance from the Oregon State Police SWAT Team. Two residents were arrested for their role in hindering prosecution, but Crist was not located. Detectives quickly determined Crist had fled to Chico, California, just days before. They contacted the Chico Police Department along with the U.S. Marshals Service. Chico Police detectives conducted a surveillance operation at the residence in the 1500 block of E. Lassen Avenue where Crist was believed to be, and within hours, observed him exiting the home. Due to his distinct physical characteristics, Detectives were able to positively identify the person as Crist and swiftly took him into custody without incident. Crist was arrested for his outstanding felony warrant and booked into the Butte County Jail to be held pending extradition by U.S. Marshals to Lane County, Oregon. It is believed Crist had been in hiding in multiple other states, including Arizona and Missouri, and may have been using the aliases of “Zane Carson” or “Jack Watson.” A photo of Crist is attached. Anyone who may have had contact with or was victimized by Crist during his time as a fugitive is encouraged to contact the Lane County Sheriff’s Office at (541) 682-4150 option 1. The Lane County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the many agencies that assisted our detectives on this years-long, multi-state investigation: - U.S. Marshals Service offices in: Eugene and Medford, Oregon Anchorage, Alaska Springfield, Missouri Flagstaff, Phoenix, and Yuma, Arizona - Chico Police Department, California - Mohave County Sheriff’s Office, Arizona - Pinal County Sheriff’s Office, Arizona - Oregon State Police - Amtrak Police Department in Portland, Oregon - Alaska State TroopersPhotos from Lane County Sheriff's Office's post

2/12/26 - LCSO Case 19-7563 Former Creswell resident convicted of animal neglect arrested in California, extradited to Lane County In October of 2019, Lane County Sheriff’s deputies served a search warrant at a property in the 33000 block of Camas Swale Road while investigating ongoing animal abuse. Lane County Animal Services and Oregon Humane Society assisted. A total of 61 horses were removed from the property after being assessed by a licensed veterinarian. Many were emaciated and determined to be malnourished. Several horse carcasses were located on the property, and some rescued horses did not survive. The incident required a significant amount of work from multiple agencies and community partners. After additional investigation, Gwenyth Ellen Davies, 55, of Creswell, was arrested for Animal Neglect in the 2nd Degree (Felony). Davies later plead guilty to 11 counts of Animal Neglect in the 2nd Degree, was sentenced to probation, and ordered to pay restitution to the state. Davies instead disappeared. As a result, Lane County Circuit Court issued an extraditable warrant for her arrest in 2023. A deputy determined Davies was likely in California and notified law enforcement in the area. The deputy continued the investigation as new information arose. In January of 2026, Davies was arrested on the warrant by the Los Angeles Police Department as she re-entered the U.S. at a port of entry in the Los Angeles area. Extradition was approved by the Oregon Office of the Governor. On February 12th, 2026, Davies was lodged at the Lane County Jail on the warrant. The Lane County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the many agencies involved in this investigation, including the Lane County District Attorney’s Office, Oregon Humane Society, Oregon Department of Justice, Butte County Sheriff’s Office, Los Angeles Police Department, U.S. Customs & Border Protection, and numerous community partners that assisted with the evaluation and care of the horses in 2019.

On Wednesday evening, several Lane County Sheriff’s Search & Rescue volunteers responded to the area of Sutton Creek, north of Florence, to assist two lost hikers.

Follow these tips to stay safe as you explore the outdoors: ⛰️Always tell someone where you are going and when you plan to return. 🌨️ Know conditions before you leave - rain in the valley can mean ice up high! ⛺ Be prepared to stay out overnight - even if you don't plan to get out of your car. 🗺️ Bring maps for offline navigation - cell service can be spotty! 🌊 If you go on the water, ALWAYS wear a life jacket! 🛑 If you become lost, STAY PUT! Find a way to signal or make your location visible. Always carry a whistle and flashlight in the outdoors – it just might save your life. Nearly every week, Lane County Sheriff's Search & Rescue deputies and volunteers assist our residents and visitors in all types of environments.
