D.A.R.E. to be different, shit.

As he fled for his life, dripping blood along a South Side sidewalk early Sunday, Morris Wilson III called a friend on his cell phone, desperately seeking help.

“He kept saying, ‘I’m at 81st and Drexel—hurry up, hurry up,’ ” said Wilson’s mother, Clara, recounting the story she was told by the friend.

His friend came too late. Wilson, 30, a father of a 9-year-old boy, was found dead of stab wounds in an apartment courtyard.

Four women—all mothers but one—were ordered held without bail Monday on charges of armed robbery and murder in Wilson’s death. Authorities said his death stemmed from a drunken fight over a cigarette at about 2 a.m. Sunday.

The women—Carmelita Hall, Tiffany Cox and Miesha Nelson, all 25 and of Chicago, and Roslind Ball, 23, of Evanston—were playing cards and drinking with Wilson in an apartment in the 8100 block of South Drexel Avenue, prosecutors said.
A quarrel started when Wilson broke one of the women’s cigarettes, a police source said. Assistant State’s Atty. LuAnn Snow said the women told Wilson to leave and he threw a beer bottle at the front door on his way out.

The women felt Wilson “disrespected” them and beat and stomped him in a courtyard, Snow said. One woman stabbed him with a knife, then handed the weapon to another woman, who repeatedly stabbed him, Snow said. [source - - Thanks AJ]
