The Starved Rock Murders

March 14, 1960, the bodies of three women from the Chicago suburbs were discovered in St. Louis Canyon, one of the many natural wonders at Starved Rock State Park, near Utica, Illinois. The crime shocked northern Illinois and led to a manhunt that ended with a killer's confession. To this day there are still a lot of people who think Chester Weger was innocent. Either way, in February of 2020 after serving 59 years in prison, Chester Weger was paroled.
