Dalton Whitlow, 23, was fatally shot on May 22, 2020, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He was living at an Extended Stay hotel with his girlfriend, Sha-Lisa Harlin, after their home had burned down. The shooting followed Harlin discovering Whitlow had begun a relationship with another woman.

She confronted the new woman’s roommate at gunpoint, then returned to the Extended Stay after an unsuccessful search. There she pointed the gun at the other woman; Whitlow stepped between them. A shot was fired into the ground, and during Harlin’s continued pursuit of the other woman a second shot struck Whitlow in the temple. He was taken to a hospital and later died.

Harlin stayed at the scene, confessed to the shooting, and the firearm and spent casings were recovered. The pistol’s magazine reportedly required being held in place to fire a second round, and Harlin had a prior felony conviction that barred legal firearm possession. Does anyone have information about Whitlow’s life in Tulsa or the days before May 22, 2020?
