Opening statements set to begin in trial of Vaughn
JOLIET, Ill. (MCT) — It's been more than five years since the early summer morning when Christopher Vaughn flagged down a passing motorist on a dusty frontage road near Channahon, sparking one of the most horrific cases in Will County history.
Prosecutors say Vaughn shot his wife and three children to death after pulling off Interstate 55 on the way to what he said was a last-minute trip to a Springfield water park.
