People v. Dailey

This is an appeal from the defendant's conviction of murder following a jury trial in the circuit court of Cook County. The
court sentenced the defendant to a term of from 30 to 60 years in the penitentiary. About 5:30 A.M. on September 15, 1968, four young men were returning from a party. As they walked west on 48th Street in
Chicago a man stepped out of a doorway and walked west ahead of them. A short time later he turned around, said, "Hold it
boys," and fired three shots from a pistol concealed under a newspaper on his arm. One of the bullets struck Clarence Craig,
one of the four young men, causing his death. The man that fired the shots escaped.
