Missing SWOSU Student Logan Nathaniel Musil found deceased in Murray County, Cameron Lewis arrested
WEATHERFORD, OK — The Southwestern Oklahoma State University (SWOSU) community is mourning the loss of 18-year-old Logan Nathaniel Musil, a student who was reported missing on September 30, 2025, and later found deceased in Murray County.
According to officials, the SWOSU Police Department requested assistance from the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) on October 5, 2025, to aid in the search for Musil after he was reported missing late the previous week.
OSBI special agents, working in coordination with local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies, launched an extensive search effort to locate the missing student.
Based on investigative information, search operations were concentrated in a wooded area near Veteran’s Lake in Sulphur, Oklahoma.
On October 8, 2025, members of the OSBI, Murray County Sheriff’s Office, Chickasaw Lighthorse Police Department, and the National Park Service conducted a coordinated ground search in the area.
During the operation, officers discovered the body of an adult male. The remains were transported to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, where the individual was positively identified as Logan Musil.
As part of the ongoing investigation, OSBI agents determined that Musil had been involved in an altercation with another individual, identified as 18-year-old Cameron Lewis, prior to his death.
Following the development of probable cause, Lewis was arrested on October 9, 2025, in Weatherford and booked into the Custer County Jail.
Authorities have not yet released specific details regarding the cause or manner of death.
The United States Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Oklahoma will review the case to determine official charges.
In a statement, the OSBI expressed appreciation to all participating agencies for their assistance, including the SWOSU Police Department, Chickasaw Lighthorse Police Department, Murray County Sheriff’s Office, and the National Park Service.
The investigation remains active and ongoing as authorities continue to gather evidence and interview witnesses surrounding the circumstances of Musil’s death.

Noemi Hernandez, Mother of Four Murdered By Her Husband Hector Luvianos Two Days Before Christmas
BATAVIA, Ill. — A devastating domestic homicide has left a family and community in mourning just days before Christmas.
Noemi Hernandez, a devoted mother of four, was fatally attacked in the early morning hours of Tuesday, Dec. 23, in what prosecutors allege was a violent act committed by her husband.
The incident occurred at an apartment building in the 100 block of Church Street in Batavia.
According to court records and police reports, at approximately 4:37 a.m., Batavia police were dispatched after a man contacted emergency dispatchers and stated that he had killed his wife.
Responding officers located the man outside the apartment building and took him into custody without incident.
When officers entered the apartment, they found Hernandez suffering from severe, life-threatening injuries.
First responders immediately attempted life-saving measures; however, she was pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities identified the suspect as Hector B. Luvianos, 37, who was transported to the Batavia Police Department for questioning.
With assistance from the Kane County Major Crimes Task Force, investigators determined the incident was domestic-related and involved only the two individuals. Police emphasized that there is no ongoing threat to the public.
On Dec. 24, 2025, Kane County State’s Attorney Jamie L. Mosser and Batavia Police Chief Eric Blowers announced that Luvianos has been formally charged with first-degree murder, a Class M felony under Illinois law.
He appeared in court the same day for a pretrial detention hearing, after which a judge ordered him held in the Kane County Jail while the case proceeds.
The Kane County Coroner’s Office responded to the scene, and an autopsy is scheduled to determine the official cause and manner of Hernandez’s death.
In the wake of the tragedy, Hernandez’s family has launched a GoFundMe campaign to help cover funeral and related expenses.
In the fundraiser, the family described Noemi as “the heart of her family,” noting that she worked tirelessly, loved deeply, and always placed her children first. Her sudden death, they wrote, has left the family emotionally devastated and financially unprepared.
As an immigrant family with limited resources and no life insurance, they now face the burden of funeral and cremation costs, legal fees, and other unexpected expenses, all while supporting four children grieving the loss of their mother.
The family is asking for community support to allow them to lay Noemi to rest with dignity and focus on healing rather than financial hardship.
The investigation remains ongoing.
