In March of 1960, Frances Murphy, Lillian Oetting and Mildred Lindquist set off for a girls’ trip at Starved Rock State Park in LaSalle County, Illinois. Just days later, the three women were found in a cave bludgeoned to death with their wrists bound. After months of investigation and a signed confession, Chester Weger was sentenced to life in prison for the murder of the three women. After 60 years in prison, Weger still maintains his innocence and is fighting to clear his name.
