On July 25, 2014, Beelee Chang, 20, was shot and killed near 51st and Lisbon in Milwaukee. Chang was seated in a vehicle with Jack Yang when both were shot by 23-year-old Do Thao. Chang was struck in the back of the head and died at the scene; Yang died of his wounds two days later.

According to the criminal complaint, Thao had been drinking beer that evening and later told officers he didn’t remember the events leading up to the shooting. Thao was charged with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide with a dangerous weapon. At trial his defense pointed to sleep paralysis and alcohol impairing his memory; the jury found him guilty and he was sentenced to 42 years in prison followed by 18 years of probation. Victims’ families addressed the court and Thao apologized, saying he carried the gun for protection.

Are there details from that night or the neighborhood anyone can add that might shed further light on what happened?
