OR - Travis (died) & Jamilyn Juetten, knife attack at home by masked intruder, Silverton, Aug 2021

[AmandaSkis]

Ugh! Still no updates. I feel so sad for his wife.

 

[Marg from Oz]

They don't seem to have any idea who the perpetrator could be.
Something weird went on there. MOO

 

[Mastashake]

How did he get in? Do they leave everything unlocked?

How does a dude in a small town covered in blood just drive away? Did the third person not see them? Makes no sense

Occam's razor in this one IMO

Occam's razor in this one IMO

100% agree!

 

[siliconrod]

No updates in MSM. I would assume the perp would be someone local but maybe not.

 

[JJuetten]

Nothing new to report. Justice for Travis and Jamilyn

I just wanted to say thank you for continuing to care about this. It's been 9 months, or 276 days that I've had to stumble though this new, crappy life of mine and wish for answers. I know they (LE) haven't given up. I know it takes time. They have to be thorough. But I miss my husband more every single day. I miss my life, I miss the family we were creating together.

Thank you for caring. Seeing you post repeatedly about justice for Travis and I is very kind and I appreciate it.

 

[JJuetten]

I didn't even know this happened! I'm listening to a podcast that talks about this. Now I want to know more. And I agree, this needs more publicity.

Are you able to tell me which podcast talks about this?

 

[siliconrod]

No updates in MSM.
Hopefully L/E has at a least a person of interest but keeping the name confidential due to lack of evidence.
I hope Jamilyn is getting the proper support during this tragic time.

This kinda similar non-fatal stabbing happened a couple months later and an hour or so drive away, and an arrest was made. I’ve always wondered if it might be the same guy.

I found this article about family offering a reward. This was published in June of this year.

Reward offered in unsolved killing of Travis Juetten

Now almost a year later, the case remains unsolved. Travis Juetten’s family will offer a reward to help solve the case when they hold a media briefing Tuesday morning in Salem.

Bumping this. Someone posted about this case in the Idaho student murders and wondered if they might be related. Same MO for sure.

 

[vls12345]

Bumping again to get more visibility for this case.

According to Google, it's approximately 400 miles between the location of this case and the Moscow, Idaho student murders.

Mother of murdered Oregon man speaks out after police reveal possible link to Idaho student slayings

<strong>EXCLUSIVE: </strong>Travis Juetten’s mother speaks to <strong>Rachel Sharp</strong> after learning that police are probing a possible link between her son’s 2021 stabbing murder in Oregon and the quadruple slayings of four students in Idaho

news.yahoo.com

November 24, 2022

''The grieving mother of a 26-year-old man murdered in Oregon last year says she has been given “hope” that the case will finally be solved after police revealed they are exploring a potential link to the murders of four University of Idaho students in Moscow.

Myra Juetten told The Independent on Thursday that finding out who killed her son Travis Juetten in a brutal stabbing attack in his home in Silverton, Oregon – and also catching the killer of the slain students in Idaho – would be “the best Christmas present ever”.

“I want answers for all five of them,” she said of the victims.

“If law enforcement can work together and solve both cases that would be the best Christmas present ever.”

I wonder what type of knife was used in the attacks. Has it been reported? Wouldn't that be crazy if it was the same type used in the Idaho murders? Also, I was reading about some other knife attacks that all happened on the 13th day of the month as well. Really creepy stuff that makes you go hmmm...

 

[Curiosa20]

I am very saddend to learn of the brutality experienced by these loving, kind, and happy young people. I hope Jamilynn ia doing better.
I am very inspired by Travis’ mother’s courageous fight for justice.
I am so sorry.

To be honest I find the immediacy of Idaho's cops to be kind of premature. I can't imagine somebody on day two of an investigation being able to tell ka-bar wounds from butcher knife or machete or tanto or bayonet or buck knife wounds. I suppose that it wasn't any kind of official announcement though it was just some store clerk getting asked a question he thought he ought to take to the media and get himself some attention.

Cops probe link between ID murders and similar OR stabbing of couple

Moscow Police Chief, James Fry, said his team is 'looking into any possible connection [to the] unsolved double stabbing,' despite the two events happening nearly 400 miles apart.

www.dailymail.co.uk

“Authorities are checking if they can link the four students' murders to Oregonian Travis Juetten, 26, who was also stabbed to death with a long knife in the middle of the night last year.

Juetten was knifed 29 times by a masked man who broke into his Silverton, Oregon, home at 3am on August 13, 2021.

His wife Jamilyn, 24, was also attacked, but miraculously survived, despite suffering 19 stab wounds – one of which severed a muscle in her hand.

Similarly to the Moscow case - where two other roommates were left unharmed - a friend of the couple, who was staying with them because they had agreed to housesit while the couple took a vacation in Hawaii, was left injured.

In another echo of the University of Idaho murders, the killer was able to slip into the home undetected and took nothing from the property.”

Came here from the Moscow Idaho thread. I hadn’t previously heard of this case and just now getting to read up on it.
Does anyone know if there is any information or description of a suspect? I haven’t been able to come across anything.
Also particularly interested to see if either victim had any links to local churches or the university. If anyone has any media they can link which might give any more info please do!

I agree, telling one long, heavy bladed knife from another would seem to be very difficult wound wise.

The police, however, might have found the sheath with the brand name on it. This possibility could be supported by a scenario of:

- Attacker has sheathed knife in his car, but is not wearing it.
- Makes a spontaneous decision to initiate a rampage attack.
- Grabs sheathed knife, but does not take time to undo his belt to place the sheath at his waist.
-Instead, he places the sheath in his pocket, or perhaps even discards it prior to making the attack.
