Victoria Y Dysart was 22 when she was shot and killed on August 9, 2007, in Chicago’s Brighton Park neighborhood. She was found in an alley in the early morning hours with multiple gunshot wounds; the circumstances pointed to a deliberate, targeted attack. No immediate suspects or motives were disclosed after the homicide.

Brighton Park was described as one of several neighborhoods experiencing a surge in gun violence in the mid-2000s, with gang conflicts and socio-economic pressures contributing to rising crime. The investigation produced few solid leads, few witnesses came forward, and there were no arrests in the immediate aftermath, making Victoria’s case one of several unsolved homicides that year.

Did anyone who knew Victoria, or who was in Brighton Park that night, see or hear anything that could help bring clarity to this killing?
