From The New York Daily News (nydailynews.com):
An ex-con is being sought in a Brooklyn murder that kicked off the unthinkable bloodshed on Fourth of July weekend last year — which ended with nine people dead and 44 shot, police said Friday.
Sanadoni Bennett, 36, is wanted in connection with the July 5, 2020, fatal shooting of Jose Cepeda, 20, cops said.
Cepeda’s mother, Rosemary Negron, told the Daily News on Friday that Bennett and two other men were arguing with her son leading up the gunfire outside their home on Atkins Ave. in East New York.
Negron, 41, said Bennett had tried to squat in the apartment below theirs for two months, and the night of the murder he showed up with his wife, their son, and his two cousins.
“He brought his son to a crime scene,” Negron said. “He’s 12 years old.”
After arguing with Negron and Cepeda about the empty apartment, the group left and returned. Bennett had a gun in his waistband, the grieving mother said.
“When he came back, he was arguing with my son, and he pulled out the gun,” Negron explained. “I ran to save my other son, I pushed my other son in our car.”
“I told [police] who it was right after it happened,” Negron said. “I was there from the beginning to the end.”
The two other people who accompanied Bennett to the family’s house are still free.
“If two people come with the other person, shouldn’t the other people be accused of the same thing?” Negron asked.
“It was three people who came to my house to kill my son,” she said. “Why am I still seeing them everyday in the store?”
Cepeda left behind a 3-year old son, Orlando, who still doesn’t understand what happened to his father.

Thoughts? Although I can't 100 percent confirm Bennett is still at large as of today's posting date (August 12th, 2021), I'm reasonably assuming he still is since there's an NYPD News tweet asking for help o information on his whereabouts that is yet to be edited or retweeted with news of a capture.
I also share Rosemary Negron's frustrations that Bennett is the only person officially charged in this case, but hopefully there can at least be partial justice and the main alleged instigator in this case can be bought to justice if caught and proven guilty in a court of law.
Based on the alleged account, Bennett is lucky he didn't accidentally shoot his own 12-year-old son that he inexplicably brought to a crime scene in his fit of rage. Anyone who allegedly does that clearly has no regard for any human life and desperately needs to be caught.
