He’s the 25th person charged with killing or trying to kill someone in Chicago this year while having a felony case pending

Chicago has been facing a disturbing trend of individuals accused of committing violent crimes while on pretrial release for felony charges. One such case involves Marque McCray, who has become the 25th person this year to be accused of shooting, killing, or attempting to shoot or kill someone while on pretrial release. These crimes have resulted in 40 victims, with eight fatalities.

McCray’s case was particularly concerning as he had a pending juvenile gun case and was deemed a safety risk by Judge Caroline Glennon-Goodman. The judge decided to keep him in jail due to the outstanding warrant related to the juvenile gun case. Prosecutors presented evidence linking McCray to the shooting and killing of Royal Darring, 47, on June 25.

According to prosecutors, the altercation between McCray and Darring escalated from a previous incident involving Darring and a third party. The confrontation turned physical, leading McCray to allegedly pull out a gun and fatally shoot Darring multiple times. As a result, McCray is facing first-degree murder charges.

This incident is part of a series of cases where individuals have committed violent crimes while on pretrial release for felony charges. Cook County Chief Judge Timothy Evans had previously stated that there had been no “horrible incidents” under the court’s bond reform initiative. However, the reality of the situation indicates otherwise, with a significant number of murders and shootings being committed by individuals awaiting trial for felony allegations.

On September 18, 2023, Illinois eliminated cash bail entirely, further complicating the issue of pretrial release and its impact on public safety. The actual number of crimes committed by individuals on pretrial release is likely much higher than reported, as many cases go unsolved or unprosecuted. It is crucial for the justice system to address these challenges and ensure the safety of the community while upholding the principles of justice and fairness.
