In an effort to revive a stalled investigation into a harrowing double murder case in Spencer, a family's grieving heart has translated into a tangible plea for justice. Coming to the fore after four relentless years is a $10,000 reward being offered by the bereaved family of Madison Carter for information that could help capture the perpetrator of the crimes that claimed the lives of Carter and his friend Dominique Knight. According to a statement obtained by OKC Fox News, Tana Carter, Madison's mother, expressed a poignant sentiment: "All I can say is that I just miss my son so much."
Seeking to give voice to their pursuit of closure, the family has abstained from leisure and culinary luxuries such as vacation and dining out, respectively, in order to amass the funds for this reward. On a fateful May 5, 2020 night, Carter and Knight were gunned down while inside a car outside a home in Spencer. The Oklahoma County Sheriff's Office, led by Sheriff Tommie Johnson III, believes the shooter approached the Lexus they were in around 2:15 a.m., as per insights shared with KOCO News.
Through their trials and the silence that often greets those who clamor for justice, Carter's sister, Gioya Wright, bore the weight of her loss in words that to a statement obtained by OKC Fox News, saying, "It was on that day that a piece of our hearts was shattered." The Carters are still holding out hope for answers in their cold case, thanks to a big reward being offered. Every day without an arrest makes them wonder more about who took Madison and Dominique from them. Sheriff Johnson mentioned that many leads have gone nowhere, but the family believes the increased reward might help find the crucial information needed to solve the case.
