A 19-year-old Oregon driver, Oscar Regis, faces manslaughter, DUI, assault, and reckless endangerment charges after allegedly crashing his Chevrolet Malibu into a pole at 76 mph in a 35 mph zone on February 9, 2026, in Hillsboro, killing teen passenger Jackson Greenfell.
Crash and Rampage Details
Regis reportedly drove recklessly earlier that evening—up to 99 mph, splitting lanes, brandishing a gun at another motorist—while drinking Four Loko and Modelo beers. He met Greenfell and two others (including a female passenger with lifelong injuries like a fractured spine, cheekbone, and concussion requiring facial plates) that night; the front-seat owner let him drive despite impairment. Regis fled on foot post-crash, found with blood on his jacket, and lamented “What have I done?” while citing prior warnings from his father.
Court Outcome
At a detention hearing, prosecutors highlighted his recent uncharged sideswipe crash and history of fleeing scenes (including Kia thefts with peers). Judge Oscar Garcia denied bond, calling it “beyond reckless.” Victim’s mother Tanya LaBarr-Green noted her son’s life was “stolen by deliberate choices.” Regis returns March 6.
