*(NOTE THAT IN THIS SHORTY MENTIONS SHARIFF
BEING AN EX FELON W/A HANDGUN. NOBODY
QUESTIONED THIS. HOWEVER, SHORTY WENT TO
JAIL DUE TO THE STOLEN HANDGUN IN 1986)*
From: Shorty
To the City of Zion,
This is my third letter to you. This is an informative letter to let
you know what I intend to do next. The Zion Police
Department has refused to speak to me until recently, January16, 2007. I’ve been here since December 6, 2006. They have
refused to return any calls from myself or Shaun (Gerrell’s
Mother). I was told by a state attorney investigator that nothing
is going to be done concerning the death of my son.
So, this is where I stand. If you were at the town meeting on
the 11th of January you heard me loud and clear. If you know
me from the streets you know I’m built like that. Everything Ihave said or done has been written or taped so there can be no
mistake on what I say, mean, or do.
Shariff Darr should be charged with something.
IL Criminal Law 5/24-16 Aggravated unlawful use of weapon,
a person commits this offense when he or she knowingly: A.
the firearm possessed was uncase, loaded, and immediatelyaccessible. B. the person possessing the firearm has not been
issued a currently valid Firearm Owner’s Identification card.
There are other amendments.

Arm habitual criminal, a person commits the offense of being a
armed habitual if her or she receives, sells, possesses, or
transfers any firearm after having been convicted a total of 2 or
more times. Let me remind you Shariff Darr is a Duffy. The
name has changed but that D.O.C. number is the same. I can
use the freedom of information act to pull up his criminal
background. That’s coming out in the next letter to Zion.
Unlawful use or Possession of Weapons by Felons or Person in
custody of D.O.C.
It is unlawful for a person to knowingly possess on or about his
person or on his land or in his abode or fixed place of businessany weapon prohibited under Section 24-1 of this act or any
firearm or ammunition if the person has been convicted of a
felony. The defense of necessity is not available.
Now saying all that to get to this point. The Zion police
Department is denying me due process under my constitutional
right. My son was murdered. This was not a home invasion. It
was a set-up and revenge for a robbery that took place in Julyof 2006 (of which Mr. Darr did not file a police report). A
burglary at best. By Mr. Darrs own statement that he, “believes
the young man may have been hoping that they had
merchandise in the house from their eBay business.” So he put
the bait out for the fish to bite. Mark probably set everything in
motion. I went down to the Lake County building and I can’t
find any record of a home business license or peddler permit.
He lives in Section Eight housing, I was told, if that is truethat’s against the law in a few areas.
#1. No elicit activities on property or in the home.
#2. No Ex-felons
#3. No home businesses

I am going down to the housing to see if it is true or not, if so,
shouldn’t some other needy family be utilizing this voucher?
Now that I have set the groundwork here is where I am going:
I’m going to file a wrongful death lawsuit in Cook county IL.
Against the Chief of Police of Zion, the Darr family, the owner
of the handgun, and the Manufacture of the handgun and riffle
(NRA). My witness against Darr will be Lake Count States
Attorney, Mr. Waller. I need his to clarify all the charges and
explain why he feels nothing should be done. I’m filing the
lawsuit in Cook County because of Lake County’s relationship
to the police department and my own history in Lake County. Iwill not get a receive a fair trial here ad I am going to prove
that by exposing my relationship with Zion, North Chicago,
and Waukegan Police Departments.
I came in peace. I just wanted the truth and to bury my son.
Instead you make me fight for the truth. Like I said at the
meeting on the 11th of January. I am not scared. Remember me.
I tell all of my kids that you can’t get answers if you don’t ask questions. Eleanor Roosevelt once said, “ Never let anyone tell
you No if they don’t have the power to tell you Yes.” The
Police Dept is here to serve and protect. To serve and protect
all of its citizens. The Police are here for you; you shouldn’t be
scared of them. Their treatment of you or how they respond to
your care and concern shouldn’t depend on the color of your
skin. Racism should not exist or be permitted at any Police
Department. Chief Malcom, how many of your officers are likeMark Fermon? Is arresting African-Americans at the top of
your list? As long as a black man kills a black man it rally isn’t
serious or it doesn’t deserve the intensity that would have been
exhorted for a white person. I’ve been gone for 18 years,

nothing has changed. African-Americans is still filling the
graveyards and the D.O.C.
My lawsuit is going to become a class action suit the second
time around. If you have a wrongful death due to handgun and
don’t feel that Lake County has given you a fair deal, call me.Peter Angelos owner of the Baltimore Orioles started taking
Tabasco companies to court for wrongful death and health
reason. Martin Luther King showed me how to organize. Jesus
showed me how to walk in the path of goodness and truth. I
came here for that. Now it’s going to cost you.
Look at CNN, on January 17th a woman got 18,000,000 and the
Goldman’s go awarded 38,000,000 from the OJ Simpson trial.
Do you think that the city of Zion could come up with that type
of money? Even the legal fees? My lawyer is going to work
pro bono, He doesn’t get paid unless I get paid. I have nothing
to loose.
North Chicago’s Mayor Bobby Thompson took my 1st child 30
years ago Shariff Darr took my last. I feel like Job from theBible. I still praise my God because he has been good to me.
I’ve been walking in the valley of death most of my life. The
Lord kept me and he’s going to help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
