Charmaine Lawson, mother of David Josiah Lawson, a Humboldt State student who was fatally stabbed at an off-campus party in Arcata in April 2017, dedicated on late Monday afternoon the new Justice for David Josiah Lawson mural on the north side of Arcata's D Street Neighborhood Center at 1301 D Street. The mural is a community collaboration created by project leader Benjamin Funke and mural artist Blake Reagan (center back row) and involved the Lawson family, the NAACP Eureka Chapter, the City of Arcata, the Rotary Club of Arcata Sunrise and REBOUND, a DreamMaker project of the Ink People. No one has been convicted in connection with the killing. Charmaine urged the justice system and the community to find her son's killer and thanked many who helped create the mural.
