PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – Alleged serial killer Jesse Lee Calhoun entered another plea in Multnomah County on Monday after being indicted for a fourth murder charge last week.
Following his indictment for the November 20, 2022, murder of 22-year-old Kristin Smith, Calhoun pleaded not guilty on Monday to his fourth second-degree murder charge — he also pleaded not guilty to his fourth abuse of a corpse charge.
Calhoun pleaded not guilty to the other murder and abuse of a corpse charges in 2024.
Calhoun was previously accused of murdering three women, Charity Lynn Perry, Joanna Speaks and Bridget Leanne Webster, after their bodies were discovered in Oregon and Washington two years ago.
