Beaverton Sex Abuse Suspect Sentenced To 450 Months (Photo)
- 03/03/26
The Beaverton Police Department announces the conviction and sentencing of 62-year-old Andrew Alcante following a lengthy investigation and jury trial involving the sexual abuse of two young children.
In December 2023, Beaverton Police Detectives initiated an investigation after the Umatilla Police Department referred a report of child sexual abuse to BPD. One of the victims disclosed the abuse to an extended family member while on vacation, prompting the initial report.
The suspect, Andrew Alcante, was an acquaintance of the victims’ family and had met them through jiu-jitsu training. Detectives uncovered evidence that Alcante used his charismatic demeanor to build connections within martial arts, church, and recovery communities. From these positions of trust, he targeted vulnerable families and exploited access to children.
In 2024, a Washington County Grand Jury indicted Alcante on multiple sex crimes against children. Following his arrest, Alcante posted bail. The case proceeded through the judicial process for approximately eighteen months, culminating in a jury trial in December 2025.
A Washington County jury subsequently convicted Alcante of multiple Measure 11 sex crimes. He was immediately taken into custody pending sentencing. At sentencing last week in Washington County Circuit Court, Judge Proctor imposed a 450-month prison sentence. Alcante will be nearly 100 years old before becoming eligible for parole.
The Beaverton Police Department encourages anyone who believes they may have been a victim of abuse, or who has information related to this case, to contact non-emergency dispatch at 503-629-0111.
