This was the most compelling and gut wrenching podcast I’ve ever listened to. Hearing Shapearl’s pain during parts of this series is almost unbearable. RIP Courtney, you deserved so much more than the dumpster fire that is Chicago PD provided, both in life saving help and bringing your murderers to justice.
Thank you for sharing your son Courtney and your amazing mother strength with the world. 🩷
I was heart broken first hearing this story and have been waiting for an update. Thanks for the new info. Will keep following and waiting to hear of an arrest and prosecution!
I’ve listened to A LOT of podcasts, crime and murder type. I have NEVER heard police speak to a VICTIMS FAMILY the way these police speak to Courtney’s family. It’s disgusting to hear how combative and rude they speak to a grieving mother trying to find answers about her child’s death.
So heartbreaking. My heart goes out to Courtney’s mom. Here’s the thing that really struck me-it’s repeated many times that they were treating him like a suspect, and they probably were, but whether or not someone is a suspect should have no bearing on getting the injured person medical care as quickly as possible! Police are not judges or juries. Their first priority should be to help the injured regardless of who they may be.
