Roy Gilbert Cutsinger, 55, was found dead in his Tulsa apartment on the morning of May 24, 1974. The apartment manager and a maintenance worker discovered him lying on his side; his body was cold and he had sustained at least 15 stab wounds to the head. The murder weapon was recovered at the scene, though its details have not been released.

There were reportedly no signs of a struggle inside the apartment, but it appeared another bed had been slept in. Investigators concluded he was likely attacked while asleep and that the killer was someone Roy knew. He had last been seen the evening before, around 8 p.m., while helping a neighbor bathe a dog. Roy was the materials supervisor for Cities Service Oil Co. and a World War II veteran who served as a Master Sergeant.

The homicide remains unsolved with no arrests or publicly identified suspects. Did anyone in Tulsa in May 1974 know Roy or notice unusual activity near his apartment that night?
