On a snowy January night in 1997 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, 38-year-old Jose Gonzales was shot to death inside the small camper he used as home. Gonzales was with his 16-year-old son on the bottom and top bunks when two masked intruders — described as one Black male and one white male — had already assaulted their landlords, threatened the landlord’s wife at gunpoint and stolen the landlords’ pickup. The pair then forced their way into the camper, demanded money and, when Gonzales could not understand because he spoke no English, one intruder shot him multiple times, killing him. The robbers took Gonzales’s wallet, which contained only a few dollars, and fled.

The Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office and the Tulsa Police Cold Case Unit continue to treat the killing as an open investigation. Investigators reportedly have a strong suspect in mind but say they lack the evidence needed to prosecute. Does anyone have information about that night, the stolen pickup, or the two men seen in the neighborhood?
