Sundown Towns & The Death of Jelani Day

When 25-year-old Jelani Day vanished in August 2021, his body was later found floating in the Illinois River, miles from where he was last seen. The official cause of death was ruled drowning, but disturbing findings from a second autopsy—including missing organs—led his family to suspect foul play. Compounding their suspicion? The location where Jelani was found: Peru, Illinois, a town with a dark history as a 'sundown town'. This week on After Dark, we delve into the haunting case of Jelani Day and explore the chilling legacy of sundown towns across America. How does this history of racial exclusion impact modern investigations, and what happens when the official story doesn't match the evidence? Join us as we ask: Is this just a tragic coincidence, or the ghost of a history that refuses to die?
