Cristo Johnson of Lanham was fatally stabbed at a home on the 8000 block of Greenfield Drive around 7:15 a.m. on Thursday, Jan. 25, Prince George’s County Police Department said.
Police Corporal Antonia Washington said in a statement to WUSA9 at the time that Johnson was stabbed by a woman he lived with and that the the incident was being investigated as a “possible self-defense case amongst family members.” Her identity was not released, and detectives are working with the Prince George’s County State’s Attorney’s Office to determine whether charges should be filed.
Loved ones remember Johnson as someone who “touched the lives of those around him with his incredible smile.”
