Isaiah was first reported missing on May 30, 2025, after several weeks of silence.

The remains, consisting of only a head and a femur, were discovered half-buried in a hole near the train tracks on East 93rd Street.

The family underwent two separate DNA tests to ensure a certain match.
On Friday, January 9, 2026, the second DNA test returned positive, confirming the remains belonged to Isaiah.
Family members describe Isaiah as a deeply respectful and honest man.
He was known as a peaceful person who actively avoided confrontation.
“He did not like confrontation at all,” his sister shared, highlighting his gentle nature.

Now, his grieving relatives are calling on the Chicago community to help find the people responsible for this brutal act.
“Chicago needs to be aware of the people we are living amongst,” his sister stated while seeking justice.
Anyone with information regarding Isaiah Hall’s disappearance or the events near East 93rd Street is urged to contact authorities.
