About this listen

This podcast is about Holly Staker, an 11 YO girl from Waukegan, IL who was brutally raped and killed while babysitting. Ten months after Holly was killed, Juan Rivera, a local young man was arrested. Juan allegedly confessed to the murder. He was tried on three separate occasions and was found guilty each time. He would later be exonerated. Over the years, Juan has received a lot of attention, but Holly and her family, and friends have been lost in the noise. This podcast is to shine a light on Holly and to get justice which has long been denied.Angie True Crime

    This episode is an update of Marvin Williford's fight for freedom. The episode covers Marvin's current court filings seeking a new trial. The episode also discusses the distance between Holly Staker's crime scene and Delwin Foxworth's crime scene, as well as Augustine Melock's crime scene location. These locations are discussed because of the Marauder Pattern Theory of criminal psychology.

    Sep 3 2024

    This episode covers the DNA that was linked to Holly's murder and that was found at the murder of a North Chicago man in 2000. In addition to covering that 2000 North Chicago murder, I also discuss issues with the 2000 murder similar to the 1992 murder of Holly and later conviction of Juan Rivera. Lastly, I discuss the problems surrounding Holly's murder investigation and the questions that still linger. This is the last episode planned, for now, unless something new is uncovered. Please share this podcast with others and let's get Holly's name and murder back in the spotlight so her murderer can finally be located and properly prosecuted.
