Roy Wayne Cobb, 37, was shot and killed on the evening of August 8, 2018, while riding his bicycle near the American Airlines maintenance facility on North Mingo Road in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Family remembered Cobb as someone who enjoyed car races, fishing, and spending time with loved ones.

Investigators arrested 17-year-old Haydn Lee Sainsbury after recovering evidence from his home in nearby Owasso. Sainsbury had a connection to Cobb through Sainsbury’s mother; Cobb and the mother had been in an on-and-off relationship and there were allegations Cobb had been abusive toward her. Sainsbury admitted to the shooting and testified he did not intend to kill Cobb but shot as Cobb tried to flee.

A jury convicted Sainsbury of first-degree manslaughter in the heat of passion and recommended a 34-year prison term. Did anyone in the Tulsa area know Roy or see him on North Mingo Road that night?
