Joseph Jackson was 42 when he was found dead in the garage of his Rockwell Gardens townhouse in Oklahoma City on the morning of May 24, 2016. A neighbor discovered him around 6 a.m.; investigators believe the shooting occurred around 1 a.m. after neighbors heard gunshots. Jackson, a respected community barber, was shot multiple times after a struggle near the garage entrance and appears to have retreated toward his house before dying. There were no signs of forced entry, so investigators think he likely opened the door to someone he knew.

A soda bottle near the body yielded fingerprints and a DNA profile that did not belong to Joseph Jackson; that profile was uploaded to national databases in 2016 and has been re-run without producing a match. A jailhouse informant later told police the killing followed a botched robbery in which suspects allegedly lured Jackson with the promise of meeting a woman, and one suspect sought revenge over her. No arrests have been announced and the case remains open. Does anyone who knew Joseph or who was in Rockwell Gardens that night have information that could help the investigation?
