Some residents in Chicago’s Lawndale neighborhood say they’re frustrated that many homicides in their area go unsolved. Mothers like Marketa Hunter Wilson said they’ve been waiting years to see the capture of their child’s murderer. Her son Cornelius Hunter was fatally shot in Lawndale just over two years ago. Chicago Police say shootings are down 13 percent compared to the same time last year.
