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.
