On November 5, 2022, 30-year-old Johntavian Tae ONeal Hill was found dead on the living room floor of his El Dorado, Arkansas home after sustaining multiple gunshot wounds. The Arkansas State Crime Laboratory’s preliminary report recorded ten gunshot wounds, nine to the back and one to the back of the head; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators tied the killing to a personal conflict and identified two suspects in Oklahoma. One was Hill’s stepbrother, 36-year-old Broderick L. Carter, whose arrest followed an eight-hour standoff with police in Oklahoma City on November 6, 2022. The other was 30-year-old Charles E. Mitchell III, arrested on November 8, 2022. Both men were charged with capital murder, aggravated residential burglary, and possession of a firearm by certain persons, with penalty enhancements for violent criminal group activity and committing a felony with a firearm.

Hill is remembered by family for his love of family, his dogs, and playing on his PS5. Does anyone have information about Hill’s life in El Dorado or the dispute that led to this killing?
