Do you know who murdered Alexander? On an autumn evening in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the life of a young man was tragically cut short in a hail of gunfire. Twenty-five-year-old Billy Wayne Alexander was inside his apartment on October 4, 2008, when the peace was shattered by the sound of multiple gunshots. When police responded to the scene at 12942 E. 35th Place, they found Alexander deceased, having been struck by several bullets.
Witnesses to the violent event reported seeing a group of five to seven males running and firing
into the apartment. The suspects were seen fleeing the area in a white, four-door Chevrolet, believed to be a model from the years 1997 to 2000. Despite the presence of witnesses, the assailants managed to escape, leaving behind a community in shock and a family grieving an immense loss.
In the years that have followed, the case of Billy Wayne Alexander's murder has remained unsolved. The Tulsa Police Department has kept the investigation open as a cold case, hopeful that new information will one day lead to a breakthrough. To date, no arrests have been made, and no specific suspects have been publicly identified in connection with the shooting. The motive behind the brutal attack also remains unclear, leaving a lingering sense of injustice for a life taken too soon. The search for answers and for those responsible for the death of Billy Wayne Alexander continues.
