On April 10, 2022, 79-year-old Ocie Banks Sr. was found dead from multiple gunshot wounds, including to the forehead and back, in a third-floor bedroom of a senior home apartment at Wilson Yard, 1032 W. Montrose Ave., Uptown, Chicago. His estranged wife, Sheila Banks, was discovered in the same bedroom with a fatal gunshot wound to the head during a police well-being check.

Authorities arrested the couple’s son, 33-year-old Ocie Banks Jr., and charged him with two counts of first-degree murder. Investigators reported no sign of forced entry and said surveillance footage showed Banks Jr. entering and leaving the apartment around the time of the killings. Court filings presented a history of domestic problems: a 2014 emergency order of protection Sheila Banks obtained against her son (later terminated in 2016) and previous incidents of physical abuse toward his father.

The prosecution’s case emphasized Banks Jr.’s presence at the scene, lack of forced entry, and the family’s strained relationships. Does anyone have information about the family’s visits to that apartment or the Wilson Yard building on the night of April 10, 2022?
