Nadia Manjarrez, 21, was shot in the head and killed on October 28, 2017, inside a Portage Park home in the 4800 block of West Hutchinson in Chicago. She was found on a couch with a gunshot wound to her right cheek and taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead shortly after. A .40-caliber Glock handgun was found on the living room table.

A 37-year-old man, James Culpepper, was with Nadia that night. He called 911 and reported that he had shot his girlfriend, and was taken into custody for questioning before being released days later without charges. The Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office ruled the death a homicide on November 19, 2017. Prosecutors later charged Culpepper with first-degree murder; they say witnesses heard arguing and a female voice screaming on the night of the shooting, and that the relationship had featured prior threats and violence. He was taken into custody on the murder charge in March 2018 and denied bail.

Does anyone have information about Nadia’s last known movements or about the household at the Hutchinson address?
