Clarence T. Womack, a 33-year-old African American man from Chester, Pennsylvania, died on February 16, 1981. His death is described in connection with a broader drug investigation in Chester, but the exact cause of death is not disclosed in available details. Five days after his death, on February 21, 1981, city and county drug investigators executed a search warrant at Womack’s residence in the 1300 block of Martin Luther King Mall.

Officers found bulk quantities of heroin and cocaine, firearms, and ammunition; the narcotics were valued at over $26,000 in street sales. Womack was present during the search and was secured by officers and arrested on drug and firearm offenses. It remains unclear from these accounts whether his death was directly related to the drug activities or occurred under different circumstances.

Did anyone in Chester at the time have information about Womack’s activities or the events surrounding his death?
