The announcement comes after Jai'mani Amir Rivera, right, was gunned down at the age of 7 which followed Natalia Wallace, left, also 7, being killed in 2020 - before Mayor Brandon Johnson was in office. The funds will be paid out as part of the Emergency Supplemental Victims Fund and will provide families with $1,500 to help bury their loved ones. The announcement by the mayor comes after a violent week in the city in which 71 people were shot and nine killed from Friday to Monday. Commenters have said the creation of the fund shows just how rough Chicago has become.
