New details have been released in the murder case of a newlywed Oregon nurse who was discovered dead two days after she went missing in early September.

The Beaverton Police Department arrested Jonathan Bryce Schubert, 27, who authorities say was a neighbor to Melissa Jubane, 32, whose body was found days after she was reported missing when she failed to show up for her shift at work. 

Court documents obtained by KGW8 stated that Schubert was “deliberately cruel to [the] victim” and used a weapon and “posed a threat of actual violence” which resulted in permanent injury to Jubane prior to her death.

Prosecutors argued that “future efforts to rehabilitate the defendant will not be successful.” 

The documents also stated that the “degree of harm or loss was significantly greater than typical for such an offense” and that there is a “need” to ensure public safety.

Officials said that as a result of an extensive investigation, it was determined that Schubert was involved in Jubane’s disappearance.
