Charlotte Bernice Cook was 18 and from Lufkin, Texas when her body was found in Cloudy, Pushmataha County, Oklahoma, in November 1980. Investigators determined she had been shot to death.

Her death was linked to the killing of a friend, 17-year-old Leslie Glenn Carpenter, whose body had been found about a month earlier roughly 25 miles away; he also had been fatally shot. The pair were believed to have been traveling together at the time, but whether they went to Oklahoma willingly or against their will is not known. A pickup truck belonging to Charlotte’s parents was reported stolen and was recovered in Hugo, Oklahoma, and an insurance inquiry into that vehicle in 1989 produced the formal identifications of both victims.

Does anyone who knew Charlotte or Leslie, or who was in that area in 1980, have information that could help?
