43YO MAN MICHAEL GOODMAN IS CHARGED WITH HER SHOOTING HE COMPLAINED ABOUT TOO MUCH NOISE MUGSHOT RELEASED

CHICAGO – A Cook County judge ordered a man accused of gunning down a 9-year-old girl last weekend in Portage Park to be held without bail.

Michael Goodman, 43, appeared in bond court Tuesday. He is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Serabi ‘BiBi’ Medina on Saturday, Aug. 5 in the 3500 block of North Long Avenue.

During the hearing, Goodman was brought into the courtroom by deputies and was wearing a black tee shirt and long shorts with his hands secured behind his back. He had stitches above his left eye, an injury sustained when his gun was fired during a struggle with the victim’s father. Goodman was appointed a public defender and did not speak during Tuesday’s proceeding.  

“It’s one step closer that we know he’s been charged, but it’s not good enough. I wish this individual rots in hell, where he deserves to be with his maker,” said Rene Aquino, eyewitness and friend of Serabi Medina’s father.

Filled with heartache and grief over her brutal killing, community members continued to leave flowers, stuffed animals and candles at a memorial for the child, who would have started fourth grade later this month.
