Do you know who murdered Charles Dake?\n In a converted garage on a November evening in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the lives of four people were tragically cut short in a burst of violence that continues to baffle investigators. On November 23, 2013, 34-year-old Charles 'Charlie' Dake, a Caucasian male, was shot and killed alongside his wife Melissa Dake, 35, and two other individuals, 54-year-old Glenda Harper and 46-year-old Tammy Brunson.
The brutal attack took place at a residence on North New Haven Avenue, where a gathering was taking place in a converted garage space.
According to reports, an unknown gunman entered the room and confronted the occupants before opening fire at close range. A fifth person was also shot during the incident but survived their injuries. Witnesses at the scene reported hearing a vehicle speeding away shortly after the gunshots rang out. The shooting left a scene of devastation, with two of the victims dying at the home and two others succumbing to their injuries at a local hospital. Remarkably, several children who were present in the main part of the house were unharmed.
In the years that have followed the quadruple homicide, the case has remained unsolved, and no arrests have been made. The Tulsa Police Department has publicly appealed for information and has explored various leads, including the possibility that the shooting was drug-related, as evidence of methamphetamine was reportedly found at the scene and the home had a history of drug-related arrests. Authorities believe the perpetrator was likely familiar with the victims and the layout of the home. Despite their efforts and an extensive list of potential leads, no specific suspect has been publicly identified, leaving the families of Charles Dake and the other victims still searching for answers and justice.
