The court records are sealed, so I don't think we're going to see any updates for a while. He does have a status hearing this month, however.

Newlywed nurse’s accused killer back in court as prosecutors turn over new evidence

“This is an ongoing investigation, and a fairly complicated one," said a defense attorney for Bryce Schubert.

***Paywalled Article***

• Both sides appeared in court to update Judge Guptill on their progress. BS joined by video and didn't speak.
• Defense attorney Scholl told the judge he just received another flash drive packed with evidence and needed time to review it.
• The judge set another status hearing for March 10.
• More than a dozen members of Schubert’s family attended the Monday hearing.

Appears there's a lot of new evidence and apparently it's a "fairly complicated" case. That's pretty interesting. I wonder what could be so complicated about it?

Greg Scholl emerged and told the judge he’d just received another flash drive packed with evidence and needed time to review it.

“We’re still getting information from the state,” he said. “This is an ongoing investigation, and a fairly complicated one.”

Ya know... I kept thinking about the info in my post above this one, about how its "a fairly complicated" (case) and a "lot" of new evidence. If this was a crime of opportunity you'd think it would be pretty much cut and dried, and not complicated. I'd also think there wouldn't be "a lot" of evidence and they'd have had it all last September.

But a lot of new evi AND fairly complicated? Was this planned? Were there others involved not necessarily directly, but someone part of what happened? They were neighbors, after all, so had to know each other, even if just a little bit.

Trial might be delayed to '26 now. Judge reserved 2 trial dates today. Looks like it was a well planned crime and possibly Bryce made precise decisions due to an obsession which was not returned by the victim. JMO RIP Melissa.

Defense reveals reason for delaying trial in killing of Beaverton nurse Melissa Jubane

Bryce Schubert is accused of killing the 32-year-old newlywed nurse on Sept. 4, 2024.

www.oregonlive.com

Scholl noted that he has another murder trial in Coos County to prepare for, and that the defense needs to retain expert witnesses who can evaluate part of the state’s case.

Prosecutors opposed the motion to push back the case, but Washington County Circuit Judge Rebecca Guptill found the defense motion reasonable during a March 10 status hearing. She ordered the trial to be set over some 200 days — moving the date from Sept. 9 to March 31, 2026.

Why trial of Bryce Schubert, accused of killing Beaverton nurse Melissa Jubane, will be postponed until next year

Bryce Schubert is charged with murder, kidnapping and abuse of a corpse for allegedly killing his neighbor, Melissa Jubane, last September.

www.kgw.com

Schubert's attorneys, Greg Scholl and Shelley Aschenbrenner, filed a motion in Feb. 26 to push back the trial. Scholl, in the motion, described the investigation into Jubane's death as "ongoing and very active."

However, Scholl said he is scheduled for a multiple homicide trial in Coos County, scheduled to start this August, which would conflict with Schubert's trial. He also pointed to the state's shortage of qualified defense attorneys, noting that he and his team are appointed to 35 homicides in 10 different counties.

I can't help but wonder what about the case is keeping them so active? I don't recall them saying they took his computer, which can take some time to go through, so can't think of what it is they could they be doing. Hmmm....

Excerpt from the article below answered my question for me. Digital discovery? I wonder what it is they have? And on more than 1 topic? I really wish they'd throw a bone to this dog! Inquiring minds want to know!

“Discovery is voluminous and complicated and involves large amounts of digital discovery,” Scholl wrote in the document. “The defense is engaged in ongoing discussions with the prosecution in this case on more than one topic.”

He added, “The investigation into the death of Melissa Jubane is ongoing and is very active. We expect we will receive more information as that investigation continues.”
