Juan Carlos Artiles, 27, was found shot to death inside a residence in Portland’s Lents neighborhood in the early morning hours of September 4, 2022. Officers were dispatched just before 5:45 a.m. to the 6000 block of Southeast 90th Avenue, near Southeast Woodstock Boulevard, and discovered Artiles deceased at the scene. The Multnomah County Medical Examiner determined the cause of death was a gunshot wound and ruled the manner of death a homicide.

Homicide detectives took over the investigation that day and worked to piece together what happened inside the home. On September 13, 2022, authorities arrested 46-year-old Shaka Imani Chambers and prosecutors charged him with murder in the second degree with a firearm, first-degree burglary with a firearm constituting domestic violence, and unlawful use of a weapon with a firearm. Court proceedings continued thereafter, concluding in July 2024 when a Multnomah County Circuit Court judge sentenced Chambers to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 25 years following a jury guilty verdict for the 2022 murder.
