Carlos Easiley, an 18-year-old from Richmond, California, died from a gunshot wound to the upper torso on June 24, 2017. Police responded to a report of a family dispute with gunfire at a residence on Groom Drive; officers found Carlos suffering from the wound and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The suspect was identified as his father, Carl Easiley, who was arrested on suspicion of homicide and taken into custody without incident, police Captain Mark Gagan said. The Richmond Police Department planned to present the case to the Contra Costa County District Attorney’s Office. Initial reports said the shooting stemmed from a domestic dispute, though specific events leading up to the shooting were not released.

The District Attorney later reviewed the case and decided not to file charges against Carl Easiley. The absence of charges left unanswered questions about the circumstances of the shooting. Does anyone have information about Carlos, his family, or what happened that night?
