Chaz Johnson, a 22-year-old from Rockford, Illinois, died on March 12, 2017, in Chicago.

Johnson was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and attempted aggravated discharge of a firearm. In 2014 he pled guilty and received a 30-year prison sentence. Agee’s mother, Kimberly Agee, described the emotional toll of the loss and of seeing Johnson in court. Accounts say Johnson expressed remorse for his actions and reflected on the split-second decisions that led to the shooting.

The case touches on questions about what happened that night at the off-campus party and how two young men’s lives were altered. Anyone with information about the November 23, 2011 incident or the events that followed is asked to share what they know.
