On the night of August 10, 1998, 38-year-old Lena Gayle Johnson called her husband from the Citgo at 323 West 3rd Street in downtown Tulsa around 1:00 a.m. She told him where she was and asked him to pick her up; when he arrived about fifteen minutes later she was gone. Just over an hour after her call, at about 2:08 a.m., officers found Lena lying in the roadway near 3600 East Highway 11 with severe head trauma.

She was taken to hospital, suffered a subdural hematoma, and died on August 11, 1998. Her death has been classified as a homicide. The critical gap between the 1:00 a.m. phone call at the Citgo and her discovery on Highway 11 remains unexplained.

Does anyone have information about Lena’s movements that night or who might have been on Highway 11 at that hour?
