Steven Chestnut, a 42-year-old Black man from Philadelphia who lived on the 700 block of Wynnewood Road, was fatally shot in July 2015. His wife Pamela Goff and other family members have continued seeking answers while the Philadelphia Homicide Unit treats the death as an unsolved homicide.

Early in the investigation a longtime friend, Carl Wallace, was identified as a person of interest after prosecutors say he showed Pamela Goff a photo on his phone of someone he claimed had arranged Chestnut’s murder. Detectives obtained a search warrant for Wallace’s Yeadon, Delaware County, residence; the search produced a firearm and led to Wallace’s arrest on weapons charges, but did not resolve who shot Chestnut. The identity of the person in the photograph and any connection to the killing have not been publicly clarified.

The case remains open and unsolved. If anyone knew Steven, his movements in July 2015, or has information about the photograph or the shooting, please come forward.
