A Celebratory Night Turns Tragic
On August 7, 2016, the streets near Hastings and Throop in Chicago's University Village were alive with festivity. Over 200 people gathered to celebrate the 43rd birthday of Everick L. Coleman, a beloved figure in his community. The joyous occasion, however, took a devastating turn just two and a half hours into the celebration. Amidst the revelry, a sudden warning—"They're going to shoot"—pierced the air, followed by gunfire that fatally struck Coleman. The assailant vanished into the night, leaving a community in shock and mourning.
A Family's Unyielding Quest for Justice
In the aftermath of the tragedy, Coleman's family was engulfed in grief and a relentless desire for answers. His cousin, Lavon, expressed the family's anguish, emphasizing the improbability that no one among the large crowd witnessed the shooter. "He was the man," she tearfully recounted. "We miss him so much." Determined to seek justice, the family canvassed the neighborhood, distributing flyers and appealing to anyone with information to come forward. Their efforts underscored the profound impact Coleman had on those around him and the community's collective loss.

on Vanished at Sea: The Mysterious Disappearance of Cameron Booth Off Chincoteague's Coast
He was a criminal, an abuser, likely who didn't want to face justice of his actions and took his own life because he could not face the consequences of what he did. The victims have told the family his crimes, with evidence. The family knows he was arrested and convicted of possession of CSAM. They know who and what he was. And they're all so equally sick they live in comfort that the victims don't want to retraumatize themselves over everything he put them through.

They don't want the attention from the truth. The victims will never get justice. Do not pray for him o
