Tragedy Strikes Newlywed Nurse: Oregon Woman Murdered After Hawaii Wedding

Nurse Disappears After Wedding

Melis­sa Jubane, a 32-year-old car­diac nurse at St. Vin­cent Hos­pi­tal in South­west Port­land, van­ished just days after return­ing from her wed­ding in Hawaii. 

Jubane had raised con­cerns when she failed to show up for her morn­ing shift on Sep­tem­ber 4th, prompt­ing a wel­fare check at her apartment.

Extensive Investigation Leads to Arrest

After an exten­sive inves­ti­ga­tion, police deter­mined that one of Jubane’s neigh­bors, 27-year-old Bryce Johnathan Schu­bert, was involved in her dis­ap­pear­ance. Schu­bert was arrest­ed on Fri­day evening and charged with sec­ond-degree murder.

Heartbreaking Outcome for Newlywed Couple

Jubane had mar­ried her hus­band, Bryan Llantero, in Haleʻi­wa, O’ahu on August 24th. The cou­ple had dat­ed for over a decade before get­ting engaged last year in Oahu. 

They had recent­ly trav­eled to Wash­ing­ton State to spend Labor Day with Jubane’s fam­i­ly before she returned to her apart­ment in Ore­gon on Sep­tem­ber 2nd.

Community Mourns the Tragic Loss

Jubane’s cowork­ers at Prov­i­dence St. Vin­cent Hos­pi­tal expressed their grief and shock at the news of her death, describ­ing her as an “excep­tion­al nurse” who will be deeply missed. 

The Beaver­ton Police Depart­ment extend­ed their con­do­lences to Jubane’s fam­i­ly, friends, and col­leagues, thank­ing the com­mu­ni­ty for their assis­tance in the search.
