On Thanksgiving morning, November 26, 2020, emergency responders found 39-year-old Edward Pearson dead on a couch in an apartment in the 2900 block of Connecticut Avenue NW in Northwest Washington, D.C., with a fatal gunshot wound to the head. He was pronounced dead at the scene after a call about an unconscious person at approximately 9:29 a.m. Another adult male in the building hallway had a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to his ear and was taken to a hospital.

Investigators determined Pearson had been visiting an acquaintance and an affidavit said he had been involved in a dispute with the shooter, though the specifics were not detailed. Police arrested 27-year-old Ernest Cleveland of Suitland, Maryland, on December 9, 2020, and charged him in connection with Pearson’s death and with related violent and firearms offenses. Cleveland was later indicted on multiple counts, pleaded not guilty, and filed motions contesting evidence and witness credibility; those motions were denied and pretrial proceedings continued.

Does anyone have information about Pearson’s movements in Northwest D.C. on November 25–26, 2020, or about the apartment on Connecticut Avenue where he was found?
