Do you know who murdered Leonard? In the early morning hours of September 9, 1993, a resident of a home on East Zion Street in Tulsa, Oklahoma was awakened by a knock at the door. Upon investigating, the resident found no one there but noticed a car parked on the street with its brake lights on. A call was made to the police, who arrived at the scene to a grim discovery.
Inside the vehicle, slumped over the steering wheel, was 20-year-old Leonard Dale Hancock Jr.
The young man had been shot three times in the head and neck. There were no immediate signs of a robbery, leaving the motive for the violent act a mystery. Investigators learned that Leonard had recently received a suspended sentence on a drug charge and considered that the incident could be related.
At the time of his death, Leonard's family stated that he was employed and had plans to attend college. He was reportedly supposed to be on a date the night he was killed. Despite the passage of time, no arrests have ever been made in connection with the murder of Leonard Dale Hancock Jr., and the case remains an unsolved homicide. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities continue to seek information from the public.
