Thursday is the 15th anniversary of the death of Dena Dean.

She was a teenage girl who went missing in west Tulsa, then was found murdered five days later. Her killer is still on the loose.

In what's become an annual tradition, the Tulsa County Sheriff's Office cold case command post set up in west Tulsa to try to get tips in Dena's case, as well as any other cold cases in the county.

Dena's parents are there every year. She was only 16 years old when they last saw their daughter.

"People ask me, 'Why don't you let it go?'" Larry Dean said. "I can't. I'm Dena's voice and I'm going to argue her case until the day I die."

If you have information about Dena's murder or any other cold case, call 918-596-8681.
