Richard Cline, 74, was found dead at his Las Vegas home in the 5800 block of West Harmon Avenue on December 19, 2008. Authorities initially treated the discovery as a suspicious death; the Clark County coroner later ruled the cause of death a combination of neck compression and blunt force trauma, finding evidence of strangulation and beating.

The investigation produced no suspect at the time and the case grew cold. In November 2019 cold case investigators re-examined evidence and resubmitted DNA for modern testing, which produced a match to Quincy Cook. Cook, then 44 at the time of identification and already in custody on unrelated charges, was rebooked in March 2020 on murder and burglary charges tied to Cline’s death.
