Editor’s note: On May 20, 2023, the Cook County medical examiner’s office stated that the woman has died. The agency identified her as Linda Chattman, 39, of Chicago.
Alton Mills, a 54-year-old man whose federal life sentence was commuted by President Barack Obama in 2015, now faces the potential of another life sentence after officials accused him of shooting and gravely wounding a woman on an expressway in suburban Chicago this week.
Mills was held without bail by Judge Thomas Carroll during a bond hearing on Tuesday. Prosecutors told Carroll that the woman Mills allegedly shot was brain dead. She was not expected to survive.
In 1994, Mills received a life sentence for trafficking cocaine because the crime was his third felony conviction, even though neither of his previous convictions resulted in prison time. After Obama commuted his sentence, his defense attorney said this week, Mills went to work for the Chicago Transit Authority. He also campaigned to eliminate mandatory minimum sentencing.
Shortly after receiving clemency, Mills spoke at a U.S. Senate criminal justice forum at the invitation of Sen. Dick Durbin. At the time, Durbin said Mills was “an overlooked casualty in our ‘war on drugs.'”
“The life story of Chicagoan Alton Mills shows why we need to pass the #FirstStepAct,” Durbin tweeted three years after Mills’ release. “Alton, who received a pardon from President Obama in 2015, was destined to spend his life in prison. He’s now a contributing member of society. #cjreform”

Mills’ car didn’t move when the light turned green, so the Explorer’s driver pulled around and passed without screaming or honking, according to Morrissey. She said Mills sped to catch up to the Explorer, pulled up next to them, and fired shots from his driver’s window.

Obama likes his army of melanated foot soldiers.
There are some people in this world who should not receive a pardon, and should spend the rest of their lives behind bars.
Apparently, Chicago has a “Disrespected” exception to their strict gun laws.
That's the Chicago way of saying 'hello'.
Maybe Obozo should serve out his vacated sentence.
No doubt this was the only time this fine citizen did anything wrong since Obongo set him free /s
When sharing living space with blacks, the end is either your wallet or your safety
The thing is, a LOT of Conservatives fell for this sob-story shit...which gave the Democrats the votes needed to kick-start our weakening of laws and justice, leading to today’s crime wave and breakdown of society.
All we had to do was simply HOLD OUR GROUND, and far fewer people would be getting killed these days...but sob stories, unfortunately, work on far too many Conservatives.
Well, it was Dick Durbin who championed the guy and pushed for Obama to commute his sentence.
For killing this woman (he admitted to it), he should be immediately hung from a flagpole in downtown Chicago for one week.
Thanks for nothin Zero.

If they had screamed or honked this POS would have fired right there in the intersection. dissed
This is so poorly written that it is difficult to follow.
Capital punishment is too good for this feral animal.
Remember Mm Mm Mm barak husien obama ?
Apparently the m’s stand for malice murder and mayhem
Democrats should not be allowed to have access to guns.
Agreed, hanging right next to obozo and turban Durbin.
I don’t recall seeing a description nor a picture of the victim.
Is there a reason for that?
