Lekiah S. White, 28, was shot and killed inside her Woodlawn apartment in Chicago on May 12, 2012. She was pregnant at the time; the apartment had been ransacked when authorities found her, and her death also meant the loss of her unborn child. The case was one of many shooting homicides during 2012 in Chicago, a year marked by a sharp rise in gun violence.

Woodlawn’s long-standing problems with gang activity, poverty, and limited resources are noted in accounts of the neighborhood’s violence, and investigators reportedly faced obstacles common to similar cases, including a lack of witness cooperation and limited evidence. Family and community members mourned and called for justice after the killing.

Does anyone have information about Lekiah’s life in Woodlawn or details that could help shed light on what happened that night?
