Willie Parker, 39, was fatally shot on April 22, 2009, on the 1000 block of North Monticello Avenue in the Humboldt Park neighborhood of Chicago. His death occurred during a year when homicides and gun violence were rising across multiple neighborhoods, including the West Side, which has long experienced elevated crime rates.

The shooter, Terran G. Scott, was later charged with first-degree murder in connection with Parker’s death. The case is recorded in the City of Chicago’s homicide data and is noted in contemporaneous listings tracking the city’s violent incidents in 2009.
