Christopher Randall ’Bubba’ Blanton was 29 when he was found with a fatal gunshot wound to the head at a residence on Comanche Avenue in McAlester, Oklahoma, on December 1, 2015. He worked as an electrician and co-owned a lawn care business; family remembered his love of fishing and camping and said he’d been struggling and mixed with a dangerous crowd before his death.
Police say an argument that may have involved drugs escalated into violence. After a community plea, 20-year-old Garrett Jeffrey Freeman turned himself in on December 3 and was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. Two other men were also implicated: Jonathan Shane Powell was charged as an accessory to murder, and Michael Medley was arrested in the hours after the shooting.
Are there details about the night of December 1, 2015, or the people involved that anyone in McAlester can add?
