GREAT LAKES: Penny Williams

In 1993, when 27-year old Penny Williams went missing after she moved in with her ex-husband, everyone had a suspect in mind - her ex, Navy Chief Petty Officer Herman Williams.  When she was discovered dead a few days later, investigators only looked in one direction - Herman. At his 1994 trial, experts and investigators testified about all the circumstantial evidence, while Herman maintained his innocence.  Herman Williams was convicted and he spent 29 yrs in prison….until his case got the attention of the Illinois Innocence Project.  Join Margot as she tells you the tragic and still unsolved case of Penny Williams, and the wrongful conviction story of her ex-husband Herman Williams.  —— Ways to support your favorite podcast: Join My Patreon Family!
