Daniela T. Jackson, 33, was killed on January 1, 2022, at a New Year’s Eve gathering in the 2000 block of Southwest Adams Street in South Peoria. Daniela and her husband, Levi Conway, were hosting friends and family when a guest, 28-year-old Robert A. White, got into an argument after drinking, brandished a firearm, was escorted out, then returned and opened fire. White shot Levi three times and shot Daniela four times; Daniela died at the scene and Levi was taken to the hospital.

Investigators arrested White and charged him with first-degree murder and aggravated battery with a firearm. The case record states White was later convicted and received a lengthy prison sentence. Daniela was remembered by family as generous and welcoming; her mother, Rosiland Boyd, spoke at sentencing about the family’s loss.

Does anyone who knew Daniela or who attended that gathering have information that could add detail to what happened that night?
