James A. Johnson, 38, was found dead in a room at the Richmond Hotel in the St. George neighborhood of Staten Island on December 11, 2018. He had sustained a gunshot wound to the head; autopsy findings and scene trauma led investigators to rule his death a homicide.

Police focused on two other hotel residents, Jonathan Julio, then 37, and Krystal Isolda, then 36. Investigators say the deadly confrontation grew out of a dispute over drugs. A Regional Fugitive Task Force located and arrested both on Forest Avenue, about seven miles from the hotel. Julio was charged with murder and weapons possession; Isolda was charged with weapons possession and hindering prosecution for allegedly assisting after the shooting.
