Man Connected To Riot Guilty Of Robbing 7-Eleven By Jesuit, More

HILLSBORO, OR — Justin Deferrari had been charged wit a laundry list of crimes including rioting in Portland, robbing a 7-Eleven by Jesuit High School, riding on a TriMet bus while carrying a shotgun and a pistol, spraying graffiti in a vacant home where he'd been staying, and more.

On Wednesday, he was convicted of some of those crimes.

The Washington County District Attorney says that a judge sentenced Deferrari to 90 months in prison.

The DA says police first arrested Deferrari last November after a riot in Downtown Portland where he was seen smashing the windows of numerous buildings including St. Andre Bessette Catholic Church off of West Burnside.

The following May, Deferrari was out of jail awaiting trial on charges stemming from the riot when he walked into the 7-Eleven by Jesuit High School. Masked and dressed all in black, Deferrari jumped over the counter, holding a gun, and demanded that the cash drawer be opened. He then fled.

The incident was captured by surveillance cameras.

Two days later, deputies from the Washington County Sheriff's Office met Deferrari when they were called to the scene of a house fire. Crews had tried to put out the fire but were stopped by Deferrari pointing a gun at them.

A few days after that he was arrested for riding a bus from Beaverton to Portland while carrying a pistol and a 12-gauge shotgun.

Not longer after, he was found back in the house where the fire had been. He was arrested again. This time, deputies saw that he had spray-painted Antifa-related graffiti in the house.

Before being sent to prison, Deferrari's next stop is Multnomah County jail where he will await trial on weapons charges and charges stemming from the November 2020 riot.
