Robert Howard Jr., a 62-year-old African American man, was killed in Chicago on January 26, 2016. The medical examiner recorded multiple gunshot wounds, and local law enforcement treated the death as a homicide.

Investigators identified and questioned several people after the shooting and focused on a 34-year-old male suspect who was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. Prosecutors relied on ballistic analysis, surveillance footage and eyewitness testimony during a contested trial; the court ultimately convicted the defendant of first-degree murder and imposed a lengthy prison sentence.
