Cameo Johnson, a 38-year-old African American man, was found unresponsive in his Riverdale home on the night of March 18, 2022, and was pronounced dead after emergency responders arrived. Authorities determined he had suffered multiple gunshot wounds and ruled his death a homicide.
The Riverdale Police Department opened an extensive investigation. Several suspects were identified and arrests were made; the primary suspect, described as a 35-year-old male with a history of violent offenses, was taken into custody after a manhunt and, along with two others, was charged with first-degree murder and related offenses. A criminal trial began in late 2022 with forensic evidence, witness testimony, and surveillance footage presented; the defense challenged aspects of the evidence and police conduct. The case remained active with future court dates scheduled.
Johnson’s family also filed a civil lawsuit, and the Riverdale community has held vigils and memorials in his memory. Does anyone have information about Johnson, the night of March 18, 2022, or the investigation that could help clarify what happened?
