Jessica Beal, 26, and her brother Damien Beal, 27, were both shot in the chest and killed on November 27, 2020, in Riverdale, Illinois. Riverdale police responded to a 911 call that day; Damien was found outside the residence and later pronounced dead at Christ Hospital, while Jessica was found inside and pronounced dead at the scene. The shootings occurred the day after Thanksgiving.

Authorities named Clarence Hebron, 32, the father of Jessica’s one-year-old child, as the primary suspect. Hebron is accused of killing both siblings and abducting the child from the scene; an Amber Alert was issued and the child was later found safe at a local police station. Arrest warrants were issued charging Hebron with two counts of first-degree murder. At the time of the killings he was out on bail on separate violent charges and had a prior second-degree murder conviction from 2007.

The case prompted a multi-jurisdictional manhunt and an FBI reward offer for information leading to Hebron’s arrest and conviction. The family, represented publicly by great-aunt Windy Pearson, has urged that the deaths not be forgotten and called for justice. Did anyone in Riverdale around November 27, 2020, see or hear anything that could help investigators?
