On the evening of July 10, 2011, a relative of Kanisha Sanae Jackson went to the couple’s home on East 53rd Street North in Tulsa after being unable to reach her and after a call to her boyfriend, 28-year-old Bryan Eugene Mitchell, ended abruptly. Peering through a window, the relative saw blood inside and flagged down a passing officer. Inside, police found both Bryan Mitchell and 27-year-old Kanisha Jackson shot to death in separate rooms of the shared home.

Investigators reported drugs were found in the residence and treated the incident as a double homicide. Detectives believed Mitchell, who had a prior criminal history involving drug charges, may have been the probable target; speculation about a murder-suicide was quickly dismissed. Kanisha Jackson was a teacher’s assistant at Hawthorne Elementary and the mother of a young daughter.

The Tulsa Police Department lists the case as unsolved; no arrests or public identifications of suspects have been announced. Did anyone in the Tulsa area see or hear anything unusual on the night of July 10, 2011, or have information about people connected to that address?
