HILLSBORO, Ore- On November 14, 2025, a Washington County jury found Jeffrey Allen Braukmann, age 54, guilty of rape in the first degree, unlawful sexual penetration in the first degree, and sexual abuse in the first degree. Deputy District Attorney Rayney Meisel prosecuted this case before Judge Hafez Daraee.
In August of 2023, the defendant sexually assaulted the child victim, who was visiting family from out of state. He threatened to hurt the child’s family if she reported his actions. After the assault, the defendant said there would be “major consequences” if she ever reported him.
In May of 2024, the victim disclosed the abuse. The defendant was then arrested by the Washington County Sheriff’s Office.
