Mistakenly Released Murder Suspect: Updates and Arrests

Marion County Sheriff Kerry Forestal provided an update on the search for Kevin Mason, a murder suspect who was mistakenly released due to a faulty records review. Forestal identified two individuals who may have information on Mason's whereabouts. Desiree Oliver, believed to be Mason's girlfriend, has been arrested on charges of assisting a criminal. Forestal stated that Oliver is not cooperating with providing information. Law enforcement plans to conduct a more overt operation in their search for Mason, with some area homes under surveillance. The family of the victim expressed relief at the arrest but demanded further accountability for the mistaken release. Mason remains at large, and anyone with information is urged to contact authorities.
