Self Control Issues
A South Side man out on parole for attempted murder is accused with fatally shooting another man in the Humboldt Park neighborhood, Chicago police said this morning.
Anthony Smith, 26, was charged with first-degree murder in the Sunday morning slaying of Hansen Jackson, police said in a news release.
After hearing gunshots near the intersection of Chicago and Ridgeway avenues just before 2 a.m. Sunday, police officers actually saw Smith fire multiple shots at the 29-year-old victim, authorities said.
And how's this for irony?
Gunned down across the street from an anti-violence mural, Jackson was one of 15 people shot -- and second fatality -- during between Saturday night and early Sunday morning.
Police didn't offer a motive for the slaying.
We're going to guess dope. Call it a shot in the dark, but we're on pretty firm ground here.

He was framed! Pumpkin did it! Pumpkin runs chicago and ridgeway!
Off topic, but still worth noting, I am a graduate of the Chicago Public Schools, and even I can spot numerous grammatical and typographical errors in this Tribune story.
How sad that these once great and respected news organizations have been reduced to gibberish and nonsense and shilling for the left wing liberals and corrupt politicians.
How sad, indeed.
I see what you all are saying about sentencing when I saw the original article on this one too. Convicted of Attempted 1st Degree Murder in 2007, served 5 years??
So ....... "attempted" first degree murder only warrants jail time of 7 years, served 85%??
They should have kept his ass i jail.
WTF???? -- (Not a Cop)
The ghosts of Walter Wheat and Angelo Roberts.
Oh, boo hoo on the disadvantaged parolee. Do you honestly mean to tell me that the "rehab" system in the jails doesn't work? Do you mean to tell me that given all the chances he could be given, he was still full of hatred and violence? SHOCKING! (sarcasm font)
Now, now. He was angry, that guy damaged his self-esteem.
Probation!
No death penalty and prisons are closing. Pretty good odds on him getting out before he's 30.
Fuck Pumpkin. Piss bum bitch.
