A Chicago Suburb DESTROYED By Gang Violence | Ford Heights

Описание: For this video I’ll be showing you all there is to see in Ford Heights these days, which isn’t much. The suburb is about 25 miles south from Downtown Chicago. It’s actually closer to Gary, Indiana, which is only 15 miles to the northeast. Ford Heights is kind of dreary, kind of depressing, hopeless, the blight seems endless, and at times, the village leadership over the years has been a circus. I’ll start out the video by telling you what the place is like today before talking about the story of Ford Heights and how it became to be the way that it is today.

Thanks to these two websites for sharing some awesome documentation and knowledge of the history in Ford Heights, a place that was difficult to find information on:

Edit: The Ford Heights 4 were 4 men. The woman that I showed a picture of was a witness who was also wrongfully charged with a crime.
