On July 1, 2016, 34-year-old Kenneth D. Whitaker, a Black man and father of three, was found dead on the sidewalk in the 7400 block of South Morgan Street in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood. Officers who responded to reports of gunfire at about 6:20 a.m. discovered Whitaker with gunshot wounds to his head and wrist; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Family members said he had been returning home from work and described the attack as an execution-style killing. Whitaker lived in the 7000 block of South Paulina Street.

A federal indictment unsealed in 2018 charged members of the Goonie gang with multiple violent crimes, and specifically alleges that Jolicious Turman, a 27-year-old gang member, fatally shot Kenneth Whitaker on July 1, 2016, near an elementary school on South Morgan. The indictment links several alleged Goonie members to a wider pattern of murders, attempted murders and assaults and accuses the group of intimidating witnesses and boasting about crimes on social media.

Does anyone have information about Whitaker’s last movements that morning or observed activity on South Morgan around 6:20 a.m.?
