Number 5: BONUS: The Steve Stout Documents
The plot thickens… If the 60+ year saga of the Starved Rock Murders were a three act play, the first act would be the crime itself, the second act would be the decades that passed and the rumors and whispers that swirled around the truth of what really happened…and the third act would provide the answers and an ending that brought the whole tale to some sort of resolution. We sit now on the cusp of the third act, where the plot thickens and there are revelations and plot twists in the story that make narrative begin to make complete sense. Those answers, those revelations that serve as our bridge from the second to the third act, that provide even further evidence of Chester Weger’s innocence and the conspiracy to use him as a patsy…well they were sitting all this time in a storage container in a garage in LaSalle County in the possession of the man who championed Chester’s guilt perhaps as loudly and confidently as anyone. And then ever so quietly that man turned those documents over to an obscure little archive in central Illinois where they might have simply continued to exist unseen by anyone who could make sense of the information contained within the fragile decaying pages. But that is not how the story will be written. The details, the names of the guilty and complicit, within those files, bring us to the beginning of Act III and the final push towards the exoneration of Chester Weger.
