A migrant from Colombia arrested on first-degree murder charges in Chicago won’t face prosecution for the death of a 17-year-old girl after Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx declined to file charges, claiming there’s not enough evidence to bring the case to trial.
As Fox News reports, 19-year-old Juan David Ramirez-Olivo is alleged to have shot 17-year-old Stephanie Lopez Ramirez when his illegally-acquired gun went off in an apartment. While officers arrested Ramirez-Olivo on first-degree murder charges, they ultimately presented Foxx’s office with evidence pointing to a lesser charge, but even those charges were rejected.
The Chicago Police pushed for Olivo to be charged with involuntary manslaughter; Foxx’s office went to bond court last Friday afternoon and repealed the charges, citing “insufficient evidence” to Fox News.
A CPD source says a police chief assigned to this case was not happy with Foxx’s decision and was pressing for Olivo to be charged.
“If they want to say that it was a complete accident and it wasn’t reckless then minimally charge him with the weapon that he admitted to illegally purchasing,” the CPD source told Fox News. “No one thinks it’s legal to purchase a gun off a guy on the street. Plus, he shouldn’t even have a weapon.”
Ramirez-Olivo was in an apartment on Tuesday, October 1 with 17-year-old Stephanie Lopez Ramirez when, a CPD source said, his illegally acquired gun went off–hitting Stephanie in the arm and killing her.
