Police in Illinois are investigating the suspicious deaths of two prominent attorneys whose bodies

were discovered inside their Oak Park home on Monday.

Being in Illinois, a man out on bond pending trial for attempted murder was the rest

Allen.

In 2017, Allen and his wife were found guilty of murdering 10-year-old Amy Deal by forcing
