Dillon Jackson, 20, was shot to death on March 30, 2017, in Chicago’s South Shore neighborhood while visiting his mother at her workplace, Nadia Fish and Chicken. He and his 19-year-old brother, Raheem Jackson, were both shot in broad daylight; Dillon was found dead inside the restaurant and Raheem was discovered lying against a tree outside. Two other men, Emmanuel Stokes, 28, and Edwin Davis, 32, were also killed inside the restaurant.

Police initially treated the killings as gang retaliation linked to a separate homicide the day before. Maurice Harris, 19, was arrested and charged with multiple counts of first-degree murder and held without bail on allegations he was seeking revenge for his father’s killing. In June 2020 prosecutors dropped the charges against Harris, citing insufficient evidence and inconsistent eyewitness accounts after three years in custody.

The victims’ families continue to grieve and seek answers. If anyone knew Dillon, Raheem, Emmanuel, or Edwin or has information about the March 30, 2017 shootings, please come forward.
