35-year-old Kevin Henley Jr. faces serious charges following a tragic event at Mansion Nightclub in Stone Park where he, while serving as a security guard, fired a gun which led to the death of a young woman, Zulma Calderon-Pacheco, as reported by the Chicago Sun-Times.
The incident occurred earlier this month, and authorities charged Henley with involuntary manslaughter and aggravated unlawful use of a weapon. A hearing is scheduled for today at the Maybrook Courthouse in Maywood, according to FOX 32 Chicago. That same night, while Henley was on duty, a fight broke out. As he intervened, a weapon was fired in the ensuing chaos, striking and killing Calderon-Pacheco, whom her family described as an innocent bystander.
The attorney for Calderon-Pacheco's family, Timothy J. Cavanagh, elaborated on the gravity of the situation to the Chicago Sun-Times, stating, "Security guards are supposed to protect innocent patrons like Zulma Daniela Calderon-Pacheco from danger, not fatally shoot them," and proceeded to describe the consequences of what he portrays as a reckless act, decrying it as "reckless and negligent" while emphasizing how such actions shattered the lives of Calderon-Pacheco's family and boyfriend.
