Mario Hess, known as Big Glo or Blood Money, was 30 when he was shot and killed on April 9, 2014, outside his family’s home on South Elizabeth Street in Englewood, Chicago. The shooting happened around 9:30 p.m.; Hess was hit multiple times and pronounced dead at John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County. Two gunmen fired at the scene, which yielded more than 24 shell casings, and an unidentified 28-year-old man was also wounded and hospitalized in serious condition.

Hess had recently signed with Interscope Records and received a $50,000 signing bonus; family members described him as trying to move away from street life and support his relatives. He had prior arrests for drug and weapons offenses. No arrests or suspects have been publicly identified and the investigation remains open.

Did anyone in Englewood or the music community have information about Hess’s movements that night?
