The victim was located ten miles north of McAlester, along the outer road adjacent to U.S. Highway 69, in April of 1995. He was found with an unidentified female (332UFOK). It is suspected that the couple was married based on the matching wedding rings that they were wearing. The couple is believed to have been shot with a .38 caliber Smith and Wesson or a Ruger model revolver. The unidentified male was shot once in the chest and the unidentified female was shot twice in the chest. It is estimated that the victims were killed on or around March 18, 1995, 3 weeks prior to their discovery.

The victims had been dragged about 40 feet into the woods. The location is approximately 50 yards west of an active Union Pacific Railway track, which runs north and south and about one-half mile from the entrance of Crower Point, which is a Lake Eufaula public campsite. The unidentified male's left rear jean pants pocket was cut open, and he wore a watch with a Le Watch leather band. The watch was set 1 hour behind Oklahoma time, which is central standard time.

No identifying information was found on the victims or in the area of the crime scene. It is unknown if the victims rode the railway, were hitchhiking, or drove an automobile.

McALESTER, Okla. (KFOR) – The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) says a Texas couple was finally identified after their bodies were found near McAlester, Oklahoma, in 1995.

On April 9, 1995, two unidentified bodies were found in a wooded area near U.S. Highway 69 in Pittsburg County, Oklahoma.

The Oklahoma Medical Examiner determined the deaths a homicide by gunshot wounds.


In April 2020, Pittsburg County Sheriff, Chris Morris requested OSBI assistance with the homicide and help to identify the bodies.

In September 2022, the OSBI received a report identifying the victims as 23-year-old Brian and 21-year-old Rachel Burr of Texas.

OSBI agents traveled to Texas and Ohio to conduct interviews and collect DNA samples from relatives in an attempt to positively identify the individuals. Based on the information gathered, the OSBI says the bodies are believed to be those of the married couple.

If anyone has any information regarding this case, please contact the OSBI at 800-522-8017 or email tips@osbi.ok.gov.
