Father-in-law charged with murder of Happy Valley man
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A 72-year-old father-in-law was arraigned for the murder of his son-in-law inside a Happy Valley home this past Friday.
David Lynn Jurgenson made his first appearance in Clackamas County Circuit Court on Monday where he was officially charged with second-degree murder plus two counts each of unlawful use of a weapon and reckless endangerment.
The August 1 shooting on Southeast Easthampton Street, authorities said Monday. He allegedly shot Marc Richard Floyd after a domestic argument while Floyd's wife — Jurgenson's daughter — and 17-month-old child were inside.
Floyd's wife called 911. Deputies rushed to the home, got Floyd's wife and child outside and then found her husband with a gunshot to his chest in the living room. Emergency efforts to save his life failed. Floyd was 37.
Jurgenson, who was standing outside the home when deputies arrived, is being held without bail. His next court appearance is scheduled for August 11.
