Jalieel Jackson, a 28-year-old African American man, was fatally shot on May 31, 2020, on a street in the Englewood neighborhood of Chicago. He was pronounced dead at the scene and the Cook County Medical Examiner ruled his death a homicide.

Video footage that captured the shooting circulated widely on social media and reportedly shows Jackson being shot multiple times. Despite that video and family statements that the shooter’s identity is known to them, no arrests or charges had been filed. The Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office said there was insufficient evidence to bring criminal charges, a decision that has drawn public outcry and criticism from Jackson’s family.

The case remains unresolved and the family continues to call for accountability and justice. If anyone has information about what happened that day or saw the incident, please come forward.
