State of Oregon v. Raymond John Kadin
Marion County Circuit Court Case 25CR30944
Man Sentenced to 32 Years in Prison for Sexual Abuse of a Minor
Salem, OR – July 23, 2026 – Earlier this week, the Honorable Marion County Circuit Court Judge Jodie Bureta sentenced Raymond J. Kadin (age 42) to 32 years in the Oregon Department of Corrections with a lifetime of post-prison supervision. Kadin pled guilty to two counts of Sexual Abuse in the First Degree and two counts of Rape in the First Degree.
The abuse occurred when the victim was between four and ten years old. She did not disclose it until she was 12-years-old, when she was receiving mental health treatment and told a family member what had happened. She said the defendant had told her not to tell anyone.
Following her disclosure, law enforcement opened an investigation. The victim took part in a forensic interview, describing the abuse in detail. She later appeared before a Grand Jury, which indicted the defendant.
“The defendant abused a child’s trust for several years and told her to stay silent,” said District Attorney-elect, Brendan Murphy. “Her courage in coming forward is what made this outcome possible, and this office will continue to pursue these cases without hesitation.”
This case was prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Kylie Kuhns. The Marion County District Attorney’s Office wishes to thank the outstanding work of Marion County Sheriff’s Office for their execution of a thorough investigation in partnership with an out of state Child Advocacy Center. Due to the sensitive nature of this case, no additional details will be released.

Marion County District Attorney Shares Grave Concerns Regarding Oregon State Hospital Cases With Public Safety Council (Photo)
- 07/15/26
Salem, OR – July 15, 2026 - Yesterday, Marion County District Attorney Paige Clarkson shared an update with the Marion County Public Safety Coordinating Council regarding cases in her office affected by an extended Federal Court Order in Disability Rights Oregon v. Hathi, Case No. 3:02-cv-00339. DA Clarkson warned that this ill-conceived and overbroad order will undoubtedly result in the release of violent offenders back into the community and presents a risk to public safety.
DA Clarkson stated, “The State is abdicating its obligation to the most vulnerable in our society. When the State Hospital fails to treat those suffering and points to a lack of bed space as the reason, the answer is not to throw up our hands and give up. The Governor and our legislature need to recognize an inconvenient truth: the State Hospital needs more capacity. Public safety demands it.”
The attached document was shared with council.
