Within minutes, Mixon lay dying on the platform and Jackson was gone. That's
Prosecutors say Jackson, 45, walked up to Mixon, talked to him briefly and, unprovoked, punched him in the head and knocked him to the ground around 11:30 a.m. Saturday. Then he kicked Mixon and at one point jumped on his head with both feet.
Jackson paused four times during the beating, only to start stomping on Mixon again.
Several people at the L station in the 300 block of East 43rd Street yelled at Jackson to stop and called 911. As Jackson fled, someone rolled Mixon over on his back and found him bleeding from his head.
Mixon, of the 300 block of South Michigan Avenue, was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital and pronounced dead at 12:13 p.m. He was 37.
An autopsy determined the primary cause of death was blunt force injuries to his head, and a secondary cause of death was cardiac valvular disease. His death was rule a homicide.
Jackson's public defender, Marijane Placek, said it was Mixon who started the fight and Jackson was only defending himself. Jackson was minding his own business when Mixon came up and began threatening Jackson. Then Mixon began hitting him, Placek said.
"[Mixon] was verbally and physically threatening him," Placek said. "My client was forced to fight back."
Jackson is a single father of five children who is taking computer classes at DePaul University, she said. His brother is a Chicago police officer and another brother is a former federal prosecutor who is now in private practice. Jackson surrendered two days after the attack accompanied by his brother, according to Simonton and Placek.
Placek noted that Mixon has an extensive criminal history and Jackson had reason to fear for his life.
Mixon's criminal history goes back to 1993 and includes more than 20 arrests and several convictions for drugs, and assault, according to court records. Jackson was convicted of misdemeanor battery conviction in 1987.
Jackson, of the 500 block of East 67th Street in the Park Manor neighborhood, is charged with first-degree murder.

There's gotta be more to this incident then what's being speculated. I bet the assailant knew the victim, intended to beat him up, and went too far. Jackson was coached for two days before turning himself in.
Yes that's the same thing i said he was coached...but where he did up at is , he stopped beating the guy ,saw he was defenseless and kept stomping him with both feet. They bumped heads at a female house and he followed him ijs that's it that's all
