An inmate passed away Thursday morning while in custody, says the Oregon Department of Corrections.

Bobby Donald Barnes has been identified as the deceased. He was incarcerated at Columbia River Correctional Institution in Portland and passed away at a local hospital.

Barnes entered DOC custody on November 8, 2007, from Multnomah County, with an earliest release date of August 21, 2026. He was 68 years old.

As with all in-custody deaths, the Oregon State Police have been notified.

The DOC states it takes all in-custody deaths seriously, and that while crime information is public record, the DOC elects to disclose only upon request out of respect for any family or victims.
