The weekend before Thanksgiving 2020 in Earle, Arkansas, ended in tragedy when 19-year-old Paul Mason was shot and killed during a family gathering at a home on Red Haw Drive. According to investigators, the shooting occurred inside or just outside the residence on November 21, 2020, and Paul died from his injuries that same day.

Police identified Paul’s nephew, 19-year-old Cordarius Marquise Mason of Earle, as the alleged shooter. Cordarius fled the scene after the shooting; a U.S. Marshals Service task force located and arrested him in Searcy, Arkansas, on November 25, 2020, and he was booked into the Crittenden County jail on a homicide charge. Authorities also arrested Cordarius’s brother on an unrelated charge of hindering apprehension, accused of helping Cordarius avoid capture.

Paul’s death is listed in gun-violence memorials that note the family gathering as the site of the killing. Does anyone have information about the events at the Red Haw Drive gathering or the days that followed?
