Description: *Warning: This episode involves graphic discussion of violent acts and sexual assault* In March of 1960, three friends set out for a girls trip to Starved Rock State Park. When they were discovered brutally murdered inside the park – the pressure was on to find who was responsible. After months of investigation, a state park employee confesses to the crimes and is sent to prison. Despite his initial confession, Chester Weger maintains his innocence over six decades later, and he isn’t the only one. This case has it all - twists, turns and question marks, and in part 1, we are just getting started. We love our National Parks and we know you do too but when you're out there, remember to enjoy the view but watch your back.
