Thomas Lewis Maul Jr., a 21-year-old African American man, was fatally shot on June 1, 2018, in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio. He was found dead in the courtyard of an apartment complex in the 200 block of East Clifton Avenue, just days before his 22nd birthday.

The investigation took years. In March 2019 his family offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. On July 12, 2021, Cincinnati police arrested 23-year-old Eric Johnson and charged him with murder; he was awaiting his first court appearance at that time. Maul’s family described him as helpful and dedicated to volunteering, and his father said he kept those around him smiling with jokes and a bright smile.

Does anyone have information about Maul, his activities in Over-the-Rhine, or the events of June 1, 2018?
