The ongoing effort to free a man convicted of murdering his wife and three children spilled into federal court for the first time Monday, when the parents of Christopher Vaughn filed a lawsuit against Will County State’s Attorney James Glasgow and others.
Vaughn’s new attorney, Keith Altman, told the Chicago Sun-Times there are also plans to file a motion by the end of the year in Will County Circuit Court, where Vaughn was found guilty a decade ago. He said the ultimate goal remains to undo Vaughn’s conviction.
