Shooting Death Settlement

ington’s family protested, with
calls to boycott the school.
Michelle Washington, Jason
Washington’s widow, spoke to the
board at the time and begged them
to stop arming campus police.
“I know the decision’s been
made and there’s nothing we can
do,” she said. “But I pray that one
day you guys change your mind,
hopefully sooner than later, so this
doesn’t happen to anyone else.”
PSU Interim President Stephen
Percy said Washington’s death
was tragic and “our campus com-
munity mourns his loss.”
Percy said the shooting has
made the university reassess its
approach to campus safety, which
included hiring an independent
public safety consultant who led
several campus forums and pro-
duced a report with lengthy rec-
ommendations.

meeting, were plans for enhanced
training in the use of force, in-
cluding de-escalation techniques;
increased oversight by a universi-
ty committee of students, faculty,
staff and community members;
hiring new student safety ambas-
sadors and new officers; expand-
ing building security; and better
coordination between officers and
support service professionals.
Michelle Washington respond-
ed to the settlement of the lawsuit
in the prepared statement between
her and PSU.
“We have come to a resolution
that acknowledges our profound
loss. However, the pain and emp-
tiness that we are consumed with
daily will be part of us for the rest
of our lives,” she stated. “Our goal
is that these changes will bring
about awareness and help prevent
this type of tragedy from ever
occurring again. We pray that no
family will ever endure the pain
and suffering of losing someone
as irreplaceable as Jason.”
“He fiercely advocated for all
Portlanders and always led with
compassion, wit and intelligence,”
Mayor Ted Wheeler said. “He was
instrumental in shaping Portland
for the better and I often sought
his advice and guidance.”
Multnomah County Commis-
sioner Deborah Kafoury said Fish
“was such a good friend to so
many people because he cared so
much about people. He was a very
special person and I’m very sad.”
Daryl Turner, president of the
Portland Police Association, said
Fish was a champion of the peo-
ple.
“He cared about the most vul-
nerable, he loved our city and
he was a fair and steady force in
Portland’s City Council,” Turner
said. “In all my interactions with
Commissioner Fish, even when
we didn’t agree, he was honorable
and a man of his word. What a
great loss to our city. He will be
greatly missed.”
Fish was first elected to the
Portland City Council and took of-
fice in 2008. He was last re-elect-
ed in 2018 and his current term
was to expire at the end of 2022.
Fish’s office oversaw the Bureau
of Environmental Services and
Portland Parks & Recreation.
Fish has also previously been
the commissioner in charge of
the Portland Fire Bureau and Wa-
ter Bureau, and helped create the
Portland Housing Bureau in 2009.
A special election will be
scheduled to fill the two years re-
maining on his term which could
be as early as the May Primary or
as late as the General Election in
November, officials said.
