8/31/25 - Lane County Sheriff’s Deputies On The Lookout For DUII Drivers Over The Weekend (Photo) - 08/31/25

 
The Lane County Sheriff’s Office does not have a dedicated traffic team or deputy assigned to DUI enforcement due to lack of funding. However, our deputies are committed to the safety of our community, and that includes our roadways.
 
Deputies will be using state grant-funded overtime during the next several weeks for DUII enforcement. Please consider others if you choose to drink or use drugs:
? Plan your safe ride home ahead of time
? If you drink or use drugs, do not drive for any reason
? If you know someone has been drinking or using drugs, don't let them drive
? If you host a party with alcohol, make sure all guests leave with a sober driver
? And please, always wear your seatbelt!
 
By Sunday afternoon this weekend, deputies arrested 4 drivers for DUII. Each of these cases could have ended tragically, as our deputies often see out on our roads.
 
Please drive safe this holiday weekend!

8/28/25 - LCSO Case 21-6268 - Lane County Sheriff’s Detectives Continue To Investigate The Death Of Shane Sprenger (Photo) - 08/29/25

 
In November of 2021, Shane Sprenger, 47, of Blue River, went missing under suspicious circumstances in the area of Blue River Reservoir. Deputies began investigating, and Lane County Sheriff’s Search & Rescue began searching probable areas, along with friends and family.
 
In June of 2023, partial human remains were discovered in the McKenzie drainage area. They were later confirmed to belong to Sprenger. Subsequent searches of the area did not locate additional evidence.
 
In September of 2023, a bone fragment was located in the McKenzie River near the area and sent to the Oregon State Police crime lab. After significant delays, the family of Sprenger was assisted with fundraising by Dylan’s Legacy, a non-profit that assists families of missing people, to have the bone fragment tested for DNA at Bode Technology in Virginia.
 
On August 28th, the lab confirmed the bone belonged to Sprenger and the family was notified.
 
Lane County Sheriff’s detectives continue to investigate this case, which is still considered active. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Lane County Sheriff’s Office at 541-682-4141 and reference case 21-6268.
