Oleta June Gregory Lamb was 34 when she was shot to death in the driveway of her Midwest City, Oklahoma, home in April 1984. She had been trying to leave an abusive marriage and returned one evening with her sister, Marie Brooks, to collect clothes while the man she was seeing, John Campbell, waited in the car. As the two women carried items out, James Warren Lamb emerged from a van, approached Oleta and fired, hitting her in the back, the buttocks and the head. Their two children witnessed the shooting.

Afterward James called police from the house and was arrested at the scene. Prosecutors said the killing followed a pattern of prior beatings and threats; the defense argued insanity and intoxication. A jury convicted him of first-degree murder and related weapons charges; the sentence was affirmed on appeal. Oleta was buried at Sunnylane Cemetery in Del City.
