Michelle Stephens, a 29-year-old white woman, was shot in the parking lot of the Magnuson Motel along the south Interstate 35 service road in Oklahoma City in the early hours of December 11, 2015. Police found her gravely wounded and she died a short time after being taken to a nearby hospital, one of the city’s last homicides of 2015.

Surveillance footage described in court papers shows Michelle arriving as a passenger in a vehicle driven by 43-year-old Michael Wayne McKinzie. After parking, McKinzie got out and climbed into the passenger side of a pickup driven by an unidentified person, leaving Michelle alone. A Chevy Blazer then pulled in, two people approached Michelle, a confrontation and struggle occurred beside the car, and a shot left her collapsed. McKinzie allegedly remained in the pickup, which followed the Blazer when it fled. An arrest warrant later alleged McKinzie had gone to the motel for a methamphetamine transaction and that Michelle was not the intended target.

An arrest warrant for McKinzie charging first-degree murder and intent to distribute was filed in March 2017. Did anyone see Michelle or the vehicles near the Magnuson Motel that night who has not yet spoken with investigators?
