In a social media post, the Beaverton Police Department detailed the case and search for Jubane:

Efforts by officers and family members to contact Melissa throughout the day were unsuccessful, as her phone appeared to be turned off. Additionally, searches of Melissa’s bank and credit card records yielded no new information regarding her location.

At 3:12 PM on September 4th, Melissa was entered into national law enforcement databases as a missing person.

As a result of an extensive investigation, it was determined that one of Melissa’s neighbors, 27-year-old Bryce Johnathan Schubert of Beaverton was involved in her disappearance. Subsequently, Schubert was arrested this evening and charged with Melissa’s murder. Melissa Jubane’s remains have been recovered

According to the Post article, Schubert previously worked as a nurse for Providence Portland Medical Center.

Jubane’s mother-in-law, Imelda Llantero, told KHON, “I miss her. I’m so happy that Bryan met her. I told Bryan, ‘Please, always love her.’ And they were happy, very happy”:

As of Sunday afternoon, a GoFundMe page created to help the young woman’s family had raised $56,279 of its $50,000 goal.

“Melissa was not only a loving daughter, friend, and community member, but also a dedicated nurse who cared deeply for her family, friends, and patients. She touched countless lives with her kindness, compassion, and selflessness,” the page read.

Police said the investigation remains active.
