White Male. Joshua Matthew Albert, age 26, died suddenly on November 15, 2012, in the Chicago area.
Public death notices identify him as a lifelong Westmont resident and a 2004 graduate of Westmont High School, remembered tenderly by his mother and extended family.
The notices describe his passing as “sudden,” without specifying a cause or circumstances beyond the date, age 26, and the communities that claimed him.
Across major Chicago homicide roundups and official data portals that track killings in 2012, his name does not appear among the city's logged murder victims, an absence that suggests his death was not publicly classified as a homicide in those compilations.
Contemporary overviews of Chicago's 2012 murder toll, along with city datasets covering murders and shootings that year, do not reference a 26-year-old named Joshua Matthew Albert.
Searches of publicly available arrest and case-tracking resources likewise do not surface any arrests, suspects, or named investigations tied to the death of Joshua Matthew Albert, age 26.
The Chicago Police Department's public arrest lookup, as well as widely cited media retrospectives of 2012 violent crime, reveal no entries linking a specific suspect to his case.
In the absence of official cause-of-death reporting or any arrest records attributed to this name and date, the public record remains silent about a suspect or prosecution connected to his passing.
