Oregon DOC Inmate Dies; 4th Death In One Month

WILSONVILLE, OR — For the fourth time in as many weeks the Oregon Department of Corrections on Wednesday reported the death of another inmate, this time at the Coffee Creek Correctional Facility in Wilsonville.

Sally Ann Bicandi, 54, reportedly died Tuesday night at hospital. Her cause of death has not yet been released.

Bicandi is the second inmate at Coffee Creek to die while in custody recently. On Sept. 26 Oregon DOC officials reported the death of 27-year-old Adam Montgomery Farmer, who on Aug. 24 was sentenced to two years in prison for unlawful use of a weapon, a Class C felony. On Sept. 13 Farmer was given an additional 13-month sentence for identity theft he committed in March 2018.

Farmer was scheduled for release on March 24, 2021.

Bicandi was in the middle of serving a three-year sentence for two counts of attempted assault and criminal mischief. Her earliest release date was November 7, 2019.

Madrigal was scheduled for release from Two Rivers Correctional Institution in Umatilla on Aug. 8, 2022. He reportedly died in hospital.
