Corey T. Clay was 30 when he was fatally shot in Chicago on August 24, 2007. The shooting occurred on the South Side, an area noted in records for persistently high rates of gun violence and violent crime.

The homicide is recorded in Chicago Police Department data that tracks violent incidents across the city. The case sits within a larger pattern of 2007 homicides that disproportionately affected economically disadvantaged neighborhoods, where poverty and strained community–police relations are frequently cited as contributing factors.

If anyone knew Corey Clay, his routines, or was in that South Side area on August 24, 2007, please share information that might help clarify what happened.
