Juan Castillo was found dead in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on May 9, 2008, the victim of an apparent homicide. From the moment his body was discovered it was clear investigators considered his death a deliberate act of violence rather than natural or accidental causes.

There is no clear public narrative of where he had been in the hours before he was found, who last saw him, or what precisely happened in his final moments. Detectives treated the case as a homicide, but details and footholds remained scarce.

Over time the investigation became one of Tulsa’s lingering cold cases. No suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced; the file remains open. If anyone knew Juan Castillo, saw something on or around May 9, 2008, or has information that could help, please come forward.
