O.C. Winston, known also as Richard Winston, was 72 when he was found shot to death inside his North Little Rock home on East Emily Street. Family members went to check on him on August 19, 2019, after they had been unable to reach him for several days; a foul odor prompted a welfare check and officers discovered the homicide.

Investigators reported no signs of forced entry and said the scene appeared staged to look like a robbery or burglary, suggesting the killer or killers may have been known to Winston or searching for something specific. Police did not release a motive or suspect description. Winston’s family held vigils and offered a reward of up to $6,000 while urging the community for leads; the investigation has produced no arrests.

Does anyone who knew O.C. Winston, his routines, friends, or neighbors have information that could help bring answers to the family?
