Earl Edward Pinky Holland, 50, was found shot multiple times and dead in his home in Buffalo, Oklahoma, on January 9, 1983. The violence of the scene led the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation to take the lead on what was treated as a homicide. Holland was known in the town for his friendly nature and involvement in local activities, and his killing shocked the close-knit community.

Despite an initial investigation and public appeals for information, the case grew cold. No arrests have ever been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified. The investigation remains open and the OSBI continues to ask anyone with information to come forward.

If anyone knew Earl Holland, saw anything unusual in Buffalo around January 9, 1983, or has information relevant to this case, please share what you know.
