OK OK - Raymond Frazier, 44, Ottawa County, 30 Nov 1989

Sometimes justice is swift, but sometimes justice is slow to come. Deep in the woods of the southern end of Ottawa County, the search for answers, truth and justice is underway to solve a 28-year-old murder case.

On November 30, 1989, Raymond Laverne Frazier was murdered on his trout farm just off County Road 202 near Wyandotte. Frazier, then 44, was shot in the back and his killer has never been found...

It was first thought he had suffered a heart attack until the Medical Examiner discovered a single bullet wound in his lower back. Frazier's home was found to have been burglarized the next day, and several receipts relating to his trout farm were missing, according to the MNR's account.

Raymond Laverne Frazier was found dead, with a bullet in his back, at his trout farm between Grove and Wyandotte on Nov. 30, 1989. A 1995 search warrant indicates he was killed because he knew the location of two buried bodies.

Now, thanks to the work of Frazier’s cousin, Brittany White, the search for those bodies is back on.

Ottawa County Sheriff Jeremy Floyd said a search Tuesday and Wednesday of two areas on the former trout farm yielded “bone fragments and teeth”...

A search for the bodies in 1995 was prompted when Frank Crownover, who said he was Cunningham’s former bodyguard and a bouncer, told then-Sheriff Ed Walker that Frazier had showed him where he thought two bodies were buried.

If he finds human remains, the sheriff said Cunningham will be a chief suspect. Cunningham is a partner in Lady Godiva's, a club in Tulsa that features semi-nude female dancers.

Walker said he also will link any bodies he finds to an unsolved murder that occurred on the farm six years ago. Raymond Frazier, who owned the trout farm along with Cunningham, was found shot to death by an unknown assailant on the property in November 1989.

After Frazier's death, Cunningham became the sole owner of the property, some 80 acres.
