Right around the corner on Manhattan’s Upper West Side is the Dakota apartment complex, in front of which Lennon was shot on December 8, 1980 at the age of only 40 – and where Yoko Ono still lives today.
The news of the death of Lennon – a cult music figure and avowed pacifist – had caused shock and horror worldwide in 1980. His killer, then 25-year-old Mark David Chapman, was sentenced to “20 years to life” in prison and has been in custody ever since.
