Justin Kelly was 23 when he was shot and killed in Chicago’s South Shore neighborhood on October 20, 2023.

He was especially close to his younger brother Ryan. In the wake of his death, Jennifer Kelly organized a fundraiser to help Justin’s immediate family with relocation, counseling and therapy, and possible legal assistance.

The case remains unsolved. If anyone has information about what happened in South Shore on October 20, 2023, or knew Justin, please come forward.
