Family members gathered outside Chicago police headquarters over the weekend to remember Crystal Crockett a nursing student and loving new mother to twin girls who was fatally shot earlier this month in Bronzeville.
Crockett, 21, moved to the city from Downers Grove just a few years ago to look after her grandmother and begin attending nursing school at Malcolm X College.
“She loved taking care of people,” said her sister Nivea Crockett. “She just loved her job.”
She began dating Elijah Clippard, 31, about a year ago and became pregnant with twin girls who were born in March, about 24 weeks before their due date, family members said.
