Happy Birthday Azim. I am so sorry that the monster who killed you has not been brought to justice. Facebook was not letting me post photos until today.

EVANSTON, Ill. — Six years after the murder of two brothers, their family held a vigil in Evanston and spoke out about the way the case was handled. Aziz Hakeem, 38, and Mobeen Hakeen, 34, were fatally shot on July 31, 2013 in the basement of their family's to***co shop. Evanston police concluded ...

Happy Birthday Azim. You would have been 44 years old. I am working on exposing the corruption of the Evanston Police Department, who refuses to fulfill any FOIA requests. I will find the truth and will bring justice to the murders, because clearly the police are doing their job.

Today is Mobeen's birthday. He would have been 39 years old. The Evanston Police have failed our family. They not only have NOT closed the case, but do not even investigate the murder. They don't even bother to fulfill FOIA requests for their sister.

Evanston hates us. They have hated my family since 1975. The school and administrations quietly witnessed us being harasses and bullied. Some of the teachers even laughed at us (Mary Jane Crotty) when we were bullied, while some teachers purposely butchered our name to humiliate us (Mrs. Teitelbaum).

Now, my brothers were murdered, and nobody cares to investigate. The one person who benefitted from the murders was Jim Nash Jr., and the police refuse to investigate him (being a rich white guy has its advantages). They did not bother to look into his finances, nor his employees.

We will never forget the cruelty of Evanston toward our family, and we will not be silent as they continue their selfish apathy. SHAME ON EVANSTON POLICE. SHAME ON EVANSTON. The world will know you for your islamophobia.

Cops plant evidence all the time. That is how they blamed Kevin Ross for the murders of the Azim Hakeem and Mobeen Hakeem. They took a box of evidence and placed in the storage unit, and waited for the FBI agent to find it.

Why couldn't Evanston Police be competent like Sacramento?

SACRAMENTO -- Jeffrey Caylor was sentenced Friday for the 2014 shooting death of Hassan Alawsi. Alawsi was loading the trunk of his car on March 16, 2014, when Caylor pulled up behind him and shot him. Caylor was escorted out of the courtroom mid-outburst before he could even hear his fate -- life i...

My statement about what happen in Orlando: This was a hate crime toward LGBT people. This was done by a homophobe. But because this homophobe happened to be Muslim, I am concerned that people will justify more hate crimes toward Muslims. I have struggled against Islamophobia and fought for LGBT rights for decades, and I hope this is a wake up call to my Muslims brothers and sisters to rise up and love their LGBT neighbors. In the month of Ramadan, let us practice love and peace by being compassionate to all people who Allah has created. That is the Islamic way. I want Muslims to rally around declaring its support and solidarity for LGBT people. Who is willing to do this with me?

Don't get murdered in Evanston Illinois. If you do, chances are good the Police will give your family the run around for a few months before blaming everything on someone who is already dead. If someone dead isn't available to blame, they will wait patiently until a rookie officer gets scared and shoots someone during a tense situation. That someone who is now dead will get blamed for your murder. Worse, that someone while being dead is also unable to provide a defense against the bogus charge. Adding insult to injury, the involved officers will be instructed to not file reports on the incident thus completing the cover up.

According to a table on page seven of the City of Evanston's 2014 Police annual report, only TWO deadly force Use-of-Force reports were filed during 2013. We have determined through FOIA requests, FIVE officers were involved in the December 16, 2013 shooting of Kevin Ross. Based on that table, a minimum of three officers (likely all five) did not file reports. Why were officers either instructed to or allowed to refrain from filing reports?

The only available exemption in the City of Evanston's Use of Force guidelines are six magic words contained within General Order 16.1 section VII B1. Those magic words are "or as directed by a supervisor".

Do your family a favor, don't get murdered in Evanston Illinois.

Hello all. First and foremost, the Hakeem family would like to thank you for the support all throughout this ordeal. It has been two years since my brothers were brutally murdered, and the lazy Evanston Police still have not processed the fingerprints (or has not told us they did). In my opinion, the landlord, Jim Nash Jr., had motive to murder my brothers. Unbeknownst to the rest of the family, he wanted my family store out, and wanted the next door record store to take over. Jim Nash Jr. sabotaged all potential buyers to the store, told us not to worry about the rent to increase debt, stole all of our merchandise, and then evicted us. In my opinion he is scum - the lowest of low, taking advantage of a grieving family. His personal beef was with to***co - he was scared that ma*****na would be legalized and that we would start selling it. Jim Nash can be found at 708 Church St # 211, Evanston, IL 60201 (847) 328-3330. Thank you again for all of the love, prayers, thoughts, and support.
