Check out the new iHeartMedia podcast 'Murder in Illinois,' which investigates the conviction of a man convicted of shooting his wife and three children.
A makeshift memorial to Kimberly Vaughn, and her three children Abigayle, 12, Cassandra, 11, and Blake, 8, is seen outside their home in Oswego, Ill. Christopher Vaughn, who was convicted in the 2007 slayings of his wife and three children, is asking for a new trial and a judge in Joliet, Ill., is expected to announce his decision Tuesday, Nov. 27, 2012.
In 2012, an Illinois court convicted Vaughn of murdering Kimberly and their three children. The prosecution said he had shoved the gun under his wife’s chin and killed her first, before turning to the children in the back seat. The oldest, Abigayle, 12, was killed first, the state said. She died holding a stuffed animal and a Harry Potter book. Then Cassandra, 11, and finally Blake, 8, who authorities said had raised his arms in self defense.
