Charles Rapheal Dews was 27 when he was found shot to death in a field just outside his home on East Ute Street in Tulsa, Oklahoma. His body was discovered by a first cousin on June 4, 2014, with fatal gunshot wounds to the neck and the back of the head.

Investigators traced rising tensions to a reunion with a childhood friend, Kevin Warrior, after both men had been incarcerated. Warrior had been paroled in April 2014, and Dews told his cousin he had been threatened by Warrior. Dews had also been involved in an argument with the mother of his child the night he died. Police arrested 23-year-old Kevin Warrior within 24 hours and charged him with first-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a felon.

At trial in March 2016 the prosecution relied on circumstantial evidence: witness testimony about escalating animosity and threats, and phone records linking the last calls from Dews’ cell phone to a number registered to the Warrior family. Another person was briefly investigated but their firearm was ruled not the weapon used. What details or leads might someone with information about Dews or that area add?
