A Chuckwalla Herbivorous lizard at the Valley of Fire in Nevada. They are highly tolerant of high temperatures and their diet consists primary of desert vegetation including leaves, fruits and flowers. They often escape into crevices and inflate their bodies to wedge themselves tightly in place when threatened.

Charlie Francis Gragg Jr. was 64 years old when he disappeared from Wagoner, Oklahoma, in late February 2007. He was last seen on either February 27 or February 28. At the time of his disappearance, he was wearing a blue t-shirt, blue Dickies pants, a gray hooded sweatshirt, black Velcro shoes, and a watch or bracelet on his right wrist.

Gragg was described as a white male with gray hair, blue eyes, and glasses. He stood 5’9” tall and weighed approximately 150 pounds. He had distinctive marks including a cyst on his left cheek and angiomas on his nose.

Investigators learned that several personal items, including his wallet, keys, and pickup truck, were missing from his home. However, his medication and checkbook were left behind. On March 1, 2007, a game warden located Gragg’s light-colored 1992 Ford pickup truck in the Kiamichi Mountains of southeastern Oklahoma. Despite searches and investigative efforts, no trace of Gragg was found in the area.

Sadlly, Gragg’s daughter, Lila Rose McGuire, died on December 17, 2025, without ever learning what happened to her father. Nearly two decades after he vanished, Charlie Gragg’s fate remains unknown.

If you have any information about his disappearance or whereabouts, please contact the Wagoner County Sheriff's Office at
(918) 485-3124; reference case 07-0249.

Mystery at Foss Lake Part 1

For more than forty years, the disappearance of three teenagers from Sayre, Oklahoma, lived in the spaces between rumor and heartbreak.

On a November night in 1970, 16-year-old Jimmy Allen Williams climbed behind the wheel of his pride and joy—a recently purchased blue 1969 Chevrolet Camaro with a white top. He had only owned the car for six days. Riding with him were his friends, Leah Gail Johnson, 18, and Thomas Michael Rios, 18. Jimmy told his family he was headed to a football game in Elk City.

They never arrived.
They never came home.

Searches turned up nothing. The Camaro vanished as completely as the teens inside it. Over the years, theories filled the void where answers should have been—abduction, foul play, racial violence, even whispers of a serial killer. Leah, who was Native American and said to be related to Sitting Bull, became almost mythic in local memory. Jimmy’s mother baked him a birthday cake every year, hoping—against reason—that maybe this would be the day he walked back through the door.

In September 2013, during a routine sonar training exercise, Oklahoma Highway Patrol troopers saw something emerge on their screens beneath the murky water of Foss Lake.

A car.

Then another.

The first was the Camaro.

Inside were human remains. Over time, DNA confirmed what families had both feared and longed to know: the remains belonged to Jimmy, Leah, and Thomas. Rusted rifles were found inside the vehicle, suggesting they may have gone hunting instead of to a football game. Alcohol was present. The medical examiner ruled their deaths accidental drownings.

But questions linger.

The Camaro’s gear shift was found in neutral. Some believe the car entered the water backward. Others question how three young people failed to escape. Officially, the case is closed. Emotionally, for many, it never will be.

Because knowing where they were is not the same as knowing what really happened.

Huge thanks to Michi White Photography for filming this segment.

Mystery at Foss Lake 2: The Green Chevy That Vanished First (1969)

A year before the teens disappeared, another car vanished into history.

In 1969, John Alva Porter, 69, left home with friends Nora Marie Duncan, 58, and Cleburn Hammack, 42. Their green 1952 Chevrolet was reportedly having trouble starting and was last seen being “given a push.”

Then—nothing.

Three adults. Three lives. No trace.

Families searched. Time passed. Hope thinned. The case faded into the quiet category of the unsolved.

Until Foss Lake spoke.

When troopers scanned the lake bottom in 2013, the 1952 Chevy appeared sitting eerily close to the Camaro - as if the two tragedies were forever tethered. Inside were the remains of Porter, Duncan, and Hammack.

Unlike the Camaro, this car raised even more troubling questions.

There was alcohol inside, but no visible damage to the vehicle. The driver’s door was found open. Personal items - clothing fragments, jewelry, shoes - were recovered alongside skeletal remains. Autopsy reports noted no trauma. The cause of death: probable drowning. The manner: accidental.

Still, families struggle with the explanation.

How did three adults simply drive - or roll - into a lake and never escape? Why was the door open? Why was the car intact? For Porter’s granddaughter, the discovery brought closure -but not certainty.

Foul play was never proven. But for those left behind, it was never fully ruled out in their hearts.

One Lake, Two Timelines, Endless Questions

On paper, six Oklahoma cold cases were solved.

In reality, Foss Lake left behind something far more complicated.

Two vehicles from different eras.
Six people from two generations.
One body of water that held them for 40 to 50 years.

Officials say it was an accident. Families say there are too many unknowns. And maybe both things can be true at once.

Because sometimes, even when the dead are found, the truth remains submerged - resting quietly at the bottom, waiting, as Foss Lake did, for someone to look just a little closer.

A huge thank you to Michi White Photography and her collaboration with us on this project.

42-year-old Billy Shane Jenkins went missing from Wagoner, Oklahoma on November 1, 2017. At the time, he resided with his parents in Wagoner. Following a disagreement, he departed from home under the pretext of taking a vacation.

In January 2018, his sister conversed with him over the phone, after which he disappeared without any subsequent contact. Jenkins was last seen driving his green 2014 Chevrolet Camaro, which had an expired OK tag from 2017 (BIU506), with no renewal or transfer recorded. A report concerning his disappearance was lodged with the Wagoner County Sheriff's Office in January 2019.

His most recent encounter with law enforcement, documented in records, involved a traffic violation by the West Siloam Springs Police Department in November 2017. He has not been seen or heard from since and the circumstances surrounding his disappearance is still very much shrouded in mystery.

Billy is described as an Asian male standing at 5’10”, weighing 185 lbs, with brown hair and brown eyes.

If you have any information about this case, please contact investigator Joel Weber of the Wagoner County Sheriff's Office at (918) 485-3124; reference case #19-0102.
