Joy Patricia Hayward, 28, was brutally murdered. Her killer is still at large. Her family and friends would like very much to see justice served.

An Oklahoma City woman in her thirties found herself in the grips of a nightmare on September 17. The woman, a prostitute, had met two men the morning before. They had offered her a ride and a beer. The older man, 75-year-old Charles Knox Campbell, offered her $25 for sex. The woman wanted more money. The men became verbally abusive, so she left their company. The woman saw the younger man, 47-year-old Scott Wayne Campbell, the next day. Again, she agreed to go with him after he offered her beer. The man took her to the apartment he shared with his father.
