The Seemingly Public Murder of a College Student
On April 15th, 2017 Josiah and members of the Brothers United were attending an off-campus party when they were approached by a group of white locals and accused of stealing one of their phones. One of the locals demanded that they empty their pockets. An altercation began that left Josiah Lawson pepper-sprayed and stabbed multiple times.
On July 7th, 2021, the Lawson Family and the City of Arcata reached a confidential settlement on a lawsuit. Part of the agreement between the two parties was a collaboration to donate $25,000 to a scholarship fund in David’s name. Tragically, the case still remains unsolved. The Arcata Police Department is offering a $55,000 reward for any information leading to Lawson’s murderer.
