(L-R) Derren Sorrells, 22, and his brother Darwin Sorrells, 26, are pictured in these photos released by Chicago Police Department, Aug. 28, 2016.
Guglielmi described Derren Sorrells as a “documented member” of a Chicago gang called the Gangster Disciples and the older Sorrells as a “co-conspirator” who was “let out early” on a sentence of six years after his conviction on a gun charge from 2013.
The 32-year-old mother of four recently relocated to an area on the city’s South Side, her family said. Johnson said the Sorell brothers are repeat offenders and two of about 1,400 individuals who drive the gun violence in the city of Chicago.
Pastor Jolinda Wade, the mother of the newly-signed Chicago Bulls star Dwyane, serves as senior pastor at the church. Drive, was taken to Stroger Hospital with gunshot wounds to the head and arm and was pronounced dead at 4:15 p.m., according to police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
“Bullets that fly around that have no name chose to find its way to her head”, said Wade’s mother Jolinda, a pastor.
Police say the suspects have criminal records.
Chicago has been plagued by gun violence for years, especially in a few South and West Side neighborhoods.
Nope. Donald Trump weighed in on Dwyane Wade’s cousin’s tragic shooting death with a tweet on Saturday, August 27, and Twitter was quick to slam the presidential hopeful for his insensitive message.
“So we send our thoughts and prayers to the family and we also promise to fight for a much, much better tomorrow”, Trump added.
“My cousin was killed today in Chicago”, Wade said in one tweet. Not for me and my family but for the future of the world.
“We send our deepest condolences to the entire Wade family during this hard time”. Wade was not in Chicago on Friday, but joined an ESPN roundtable on Thursday about violence in Chicago.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has spoken about the city’s violence, and tweeted about Aldridge’s death Saturday morning.

An hour later, the magnate posted another message in a very different tone: “My condolences to Dwyane Wade and his family, on the loss of Nykea Aldridge”. Just what I have been saying.
