SWAT Raid on CHA Property—4425 N Malden
Thanks to the News-Star publication for the front page story on the SWAT team raid of CHA 4425 N Malden criminal housing where the Sims brothers have operated their gang house for years.
The Chicago police in full SWAT gear and federal drug enforcement authorities raided the home of Jabri Sims, 18, and Jordan Sims, 21, in the 4400 block of N. Malden (4425 N Malden exact address) around 3:45 pm on May 16, according to a source.
The article raises several critical issues—why has the female on the lease, Tracy Sims, not been evicted after years of allowing her sons to operate their violent gang and drug house operations out of this CHA unit? Why has Jordan Sims, who was released the next day, been allowed to move right back in with mom? Why doesn’t HUD hold the CHA in contempt for not enforcing HUD policies and regulations?
Many Uptown residents have been asking why the CHA won’t follow their own written policies and evict known gang members
And their supporters out of CHA buildings? And wondering if criminal housing statutes can be used against the CHA?
Ask this man—CHA CEO Eugene Jones—public safety standards start at the top.

04.12.16 – Chicago, IL – Headshots of CEO Eugene Jones, Jr.
The last GWNA issued covered the story on Jones being ousted from the Toronto Community Housing Corp for abysmal failure of leadership.
Shortly after his ousting, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel appointed Jones as CHA CEO—go figure the common sense of that decision. Maybe we should be asking the mayor the same questions.
We will continue our campaign for public safety and enforcement of safe housing policies. 4425 N Malden is the tip of the criminal housing problems plaguing our Sheridan Park public safety.
Stay tuned…
