Alfred Barnett, 40, was shot in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood on June 23, 2014, near the intersection of 69th Street and Paulina Avenue. Witnesses reported seeing him in a parked car when an assailant approached and opened fire. Barnett later died of his injuries on June 27, 2014, at 9:42 p.m.

The investigation identified Carl Smith, known in the neighborhood as Man, as the shooter. Witnesses said they saw Smith draw a gun and shoot Barnett. Smith was charged with first-degree murder; prosecutors alleged he intentionally or knowingly shot Barnett. At trial the court found Smith acted with premeditation and intent to kill, and imposed a 65-year sentence that included a 25-year firearm enhancement. The proceedings noted Smith’s prior violent behavior and emphasized the impact of Barnett’s death on his family and the community.
