Antonio Reyes, a 21-year-old man, was recently charged as a suspected serial killer in Chicago. Despite limitations on discussing his background due to state laws protecting juvenile records, it has been revealed that Reyes had a history of criminal activity. In December 2019, he received three years of probation in juvenile court for aggravated robbery and aggravated battery. Over the course of 2020, while allegedly committing six murders and four attempted murders, Reyes also faced charges for armed robbery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, unlawful use of a weapon, and a narcotics offense.

During a hearing in December 2020, Reyes was charged with the murder of 26-year-old Davalos Garcia, who was shot while waiting for his girlfriend. He was also accused of shooting a 27-year-old man in a separate incident. Reyes was identified by the victim based on his eyes, eyebrows, and forehead. Authorities connected him to the crimes through evidence such as shell casings and a stolen vehicle linked to his grandmother.

Despite his young age at the time of the crimes, Reyes has remained in custody and is currently facing multiple murder and attempted murder charges. Prosecutors allege that he was involved in several other fatal shootings in 2020, targeting individuals who were not known to him. Investigators were able to gather crucial evidence linking Reyes to the crimes, including a firearm and his social media posts mentioning shooting locations.

The case of Antonio Reyes is part of CWBChicago’s ongoing series highlighting individuals accused of violent crimes while on pretrial release for felony charges. This series sheds light on the impact of bail reform initiatives and the challenges faced by law enforcement in addressing criminal activity among repeat offenders.

The prevalence of crimes committed by individuals awaiting trial for felonies is a concerning issue, with many cases going unprosecuted. The data from CPD indicates low rates of charges brought in non-fatal shootings and murders, underscoring the need for a comprehensive approach to addressing crime in the community.
