Aspiring Videographer Killed in Chicago's 800th Murder of 2021
NBC Chicago ^ | 12/16/2021 | Staff

Posted on 12/20/2021 12:04:47 PM PST by simpson96

Sometime around dawn Tuesday, Sheridan Freeman was inside a home in West Pullman when there was gunfire and the 23-year-old was shot dead, becoming the 800th homicide victim recorded in Chicago this year.(snip)

Shelton was killed on a block where there had been a shooting just the day before, in a neighborhood that is among the deadliest in Chicago despite being targeted for extra resources by City Hall.

Police have released few details about Freeman’s death. He was shot around 6:30 a.m. inside a small wood frame home in the 12000 block of South Stewart Avenue, less than a mile from where he lived.

Freeman had a 1-year-old son and was a budding videographer who would often film his brother rapping, his mother said.

“He was fun-loving, very smart and talented,” Diane Archer said. “He made videos and wanted to go do film school. But time ran out.”

A day before Freeman was shot, a 29-year-old man was wounded in a drive-by shooting while walking down the same block at 3:15 a.m., police said.

Police reported no arrests in either shooting.

“Aspiring Videographer”
Aspiring rapper is too cliche now I guess. But I knew rap would somehow be involved.
“He would often film his brother rapping.”

So, basically he knew how to use the camera on his iPhone.

A representative example of his work:Lil Mouse "OG Face Still Run It" [G Herbo Remix] (Official Music Video)

Basically, he was a thug who filmed thugs being thugs.

Scoff if you will, but it’s not everyone who can point a cellphone at their grunting bro. Oh, wait. It is.

“Aspiring rapper” sounds nicer than “Deadbeat street thug”
