Cold Case: Family, Deputies Search for Answers 21 Years Later
RICHLAND COUNTY, S.C. (WOLO) – In 1996, Olympia resident Jack L. Robinson was brutally killed at the Rosewood boat landing.

As the 21st anniversary of his death nears, investigators have made little to no progress in the case.

Here’s what they know for certain: the 65-year-old arrived at the boat landing in his car, around 6 p.m. August 17, and met someone he appeared to know, before walking with him into a grass clearing nearby. Deputies said three witnesses were hanging out in the parking lot before a concert in Finlay Park. They reported that shortly after Robinson and the other man left the lot, Robinson could be heard shouting that he could give the man money, and then, they say, he reemerged holding his abdomen – he’d been stabbed multiple times. By the time Robinson got to the hospital, he’d lost too much blood and died. If know anything that could help investigators, please call CrimeStoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.
