A Black female college student was viciously beaten by a white Quincy, Illinois, bar owner this month in what the victim’s attorneys described as a brutal “racially fueled” attack.
Chicago-area attorney Keenan J. Saulter is representing Jazzpher “Jazz” Evans, a 19-year-old freshman bio-chemistry major in her first semester at Quincy University.
Evans is a student-athlete at the private liberal arts college on Illinois’ western border, about 300 miles outside of Chicago. An all-state prep hoops star with dreams of becoming a geneticist, she was recruited to Quincy to play on the Hawks’ basketball team.
