Frances Murphy, Lillian Oetting, and Mildrid Linquist, were three friends who just wanted a simple weekend getaway to Starved Rock State Park in Oglesby, Illinois. On March 14, 1960 on a simple mile-long hike through the snow and slush of winter, all three would be brutally beaten to death with a thick branch laying near by. It would be months of investigative work (all without the use of today's technology) to capture the suspected killer. He's spent 60 years behind bars, but in early 2020 will be released. Today's episode we talk about how Chester Weger was finally caught. Why some have said on their deaths beds say he may not have been the killer after all. Plus, the push from the victim's families still to this day... six decades since the crime was committed.
