Supreme Court Decision: Oregon Will Vote-By-Mail in Upcoming Election
SALEM, OR — Monday night, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected President Donald Trump’s attempt to restrict mail-in voting ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, blocking changes that would have caused major disruption just days before the first ballots are sent to Oregon voters. The decision is the latest in a series of court rulings preserving states’ constitutionally-granted authority to administer elections and allowing existing mail-voting rules to remain in place for the midterms. “Oregon will vote-by-mail in the November election. Eligible voters should plan to return their ballots via secure drop box or mail them back at least seven days early,” said Oregon Secretary of State Tobias Read. “This is a victory for Oregonians, the right to vote, and the rule of law. This provides voters and elections officials with the certainty they need ahead of a major, federal election, and it sends a clear message to this country: Presidents don’t run elections, the people do.”

Guilty of Stealing Pandemic Relief Funds
U.S. Attorney's Office - District of Oregon release - PORTLAND, Ore.—A federal jury found Beniamin Lucescu, age 57, a Portland resident, guilty today of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and money laundering. According to court documents and evidence presented at trial, between April 2020 and May 2022, during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Beniamin Lucescu and his wife, Georgeta Lucescu, conspired to steal almost $500,000 in pandemic relief funds by lying to the Small Business Administration about their intended use of the funds. Beniamin Lucescu repeatedly lied on the applications for the relief funds, claiming they would only use them for economic injuries their business, Rose City Senior Care, suffered as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In reality, Beniamin Lucescu planned to use the pandemic relief funds for personal expenses and investments. As soon as they received the pandemic relief funds, Beniamin Lucescu used almost all of the $500,000 to pay off their old personal federal tax debt and invest in cryptocurrency. “The pandemic was a time of unprecedented hardship, when Americans needed their government’s help most. Beniamin Lucescu chose to exploit that crisis for his own gain. His fraud stole critical taxpayer-funded resources from Americans who were counting on them. We will not tolerate those who abuse government relief programs for personal profit. Thanks to the dedicated work of the SBA-OIG and my office, Lucescu was held accountable and brought to justice,” said Scott E. Bradford, U.S. Attorney for the District of Oregon. On September 17, 2025, a federal grand jury in Portland returned an eight-count superseding indictment charging Beniamin and Georgeta Lucescu with conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, and conspiracy to commit money laundering. Beniamin Lucescu was also charged with money laundering. Beniamin Lucescu will be sentenced on December 14, before a U.S. District Judge. Georgeta Lucescu is scheduled for trial on February 8, 2027. Georgeta Lucescu is charged by indictment. An indictment is only an accusation of a crime, and a defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty. This case was investigated by the Small Business Administration Office of Inspector General with assistance of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Meredith Bateman and Special Assistant United States Attorney Ethan Bodell.

Klamath Co. Homicide Case
KLAMATH COUNTY, Ore. (14 Sept. 2026) – On Saturday, September 12, 2026, at approximately 5:50 p.m., Klamath County 911 received a call reporting an individual who had been shot in their vehicle on Whitetail Lane in Bonanza in Klamath County. Upon responding to the scene, Klamath County Sheriff’s Office deputies located a deceased male, identified as Timothy Carr (52) of Bonanza. The Klamath County Major Crime Team was activated for the homicide investigation, with the Oregon State Police assigned as the lead investigating agency.

SAR Western Lane Co.
Lane Co. SO release - On September 10th at about 11:00 pm the Lane County Sheriff's Office received information about an overdue subject in the Cape Creek area. A woman reported dropping off a male to go mushroom picking, but she was unable to find him when she went back to pick him up. The man had a puppy with him, but he had no additional provisions. LCSO Deputies and Search & Rescue volunteers responded to the area. Cellular communication is patchy in this part of Lane County. The woman continued searching on her own, so deputies were unable to reach her for additional information. At about 2:00 pm on September 11th, SAR located the male and the puppy. He had made it to the woman’s vehicle, but she was not present. She had left a note in her car stating she was still out looking for the man. SAR continued searching the area and at about 3:20 pm, located the woman by drone. Thankfully both people were found uninjured. The Lane County Sheriff’s Office wants everyone to recreate safely. Please remember, information is crucial to searchers. If you are making a report, ensure you have a way to be reached for additional information. Wanting to help is admirable, but do not put yourself in the same situation as those you are trying save. 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.

SAR Florence

SO release - On September 12th at about 2:30 pm, resources from the Lane County Sheriff’s Office responded to assist the Florence Police Department in locating a missing person who was last seen in the Florence area.
