Marion Lewis, the man charged with the murder of 7-year-old Jaslyn Adams at a Chicago McDonald's drive-thru, was awaiting trial on other felony charges at the time of Adams' death, prosecutors say.
Lewis has two felony juvenile cases pending—one for burglary and looting and another for possessing a stolen motor vehicle. Authorities also said that the 18-year-old was previously convicted in juvenile court on a gun charge, possessing a stolen motor vehicle, criminal trespass to vehicle, burglary to auto and attempted residential burglary.
On Saturday, Chicago police announced the charges against Lewis in the April 18 incident, when Lewis shot both Adams and her father, Jontae, outside the fast-food restaurant.
Adams was pronounced dead from three gunshot wounds, while Jontae survived after being shot in the torso and is recovering from his injuries. Her father said Lewis had threatened him in the past and identified one of the shooters as a member of a gang.
Police say Lewis pulled up behind the father and daughter at the drive-thru before two gunmen stepped out of Lewis' car and opened fire on the Adams; one was armed with a 40-caliber pistol and the other had an AK47-style rifle. (snip)
When officers tried to stop Lewis, he crashed the car and fled the scene. He also ran into traffic lanes on the Eisenhower Expressway and carjacked another vehicle carrying five occupants, including young children. Police fired five rounds at Lewis while he was in the carjacked SUV and took him into custody after he was treated at a nearby hospital.

The little's girl's family will be among the taxpayers who pay for Lewis to live on, and on, in prison.
Should make blm/antifa pay.
I think Chicongo has a 10% homicide clearance rate.
Why did he threaten the father in the past? I don’t understand what led to this.
Didn’t need to see the picture to know.
Has LeBron James spoken out against this?
10% on a good day.

According to Ron Emanuel, a personhood begins around age 7.
Until then, they are just a fetus.
Therefore, a murder conviction would contradict at least one prominent left wing leader.
As such, if this beautiful little girl was less than eight years of age, this is just a late term abortion.
Tat-face-dude just passed the DNC politician eligibility exam.
I will guess the poor child’s family are mostly not taxpayers.
18...SMH. She was absolutely darling.
What a beautiful child. Wonder how long Chi Town will vote for demon rats. They are just as bad as the gangs. No, they are worse.

The Church of BLM is deciding on when he should be beatified. ‘Cause he was a good boy.
Why isn’t Chicago burning to the ground in ‘remembrance’ of little Jaslyn Adams?
Oh. I just saw the perp. Never mind. ;(
Ping to #14. ;)
Unfortunately they didn’t kill him, they arrested him.
Yep. Her life didn’t matter.
Governor Creosote has this little girl’s blood on his hands.

What’s really sad is there is zero outrage from BLM, because it doesn’t fit their narrative. She was a little girl who did absolutely nothing to deserve her horrible murder.
No riots for this beautiful child.
