William Hobert Crandell Sr., 54, vanished from his south Oklahoma City home after being seen leaving on February 20, 2006. Described as a white male, 6 feet 2 inches, about 200 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, his dark silver 2000 Lexus sedan was later found abandoned in nearby Newcastle, Oklahoma. That discovery shifted investigators toward believing he did not leave voluntarily.

The Oklahoma City Police Department identified a prime suspect, Ervin Lee McCoy Jr., a convicted bank robber with a violent history. In a separate September 2010 plea agreement McCoy confessed to involvement in Crandell’s disappearance and agreed to lead authorities to the body; searches did not recover remains. McCoy died in February 2019, and William Crandell Sr. has not been found.

If anyone knew William, saw him on or after February 20, 2006, or has information about his car or movements that day, please come forward.
