Brandy M. Rogers was 21 when she was fatally shot on December 26, 2017, in Chicago’s Greater Grand Crossing neighborhood on the city’s South Side. According to accounts, she was walking near her home in the early morning hours when someone shot her; emergency responders pronounced her dead at the scene.

The neighborhood and other South Side areas have long faced high rates of gun violence and economic hardship, and 2017 was a notably violent year for Chicago with many homicides. Brandy’s death is described as part of the wider crisis of violence that advocates say requires broader intervention addressing poverty, employment, and community resources.

If anyone knew Brandy, saw activity in Greater Grand Crossing that morning, or has information about the shooting, please share what you know with investigators.
