Monsters Among Us: Convicted rapist, Scott Eby raped and killed 3-year-old Riley Ann Fox; Sentenced to LWOP

Riley Ann Fox

This is great news for this family, that has truly been to hell and back since this heinous murder occurred. Riley’s father, Kevin Fox, was once accused of this murder, until DNA cleared him. DNA testing that his defense team had to do. Which is not the way it should be. The investigating agency should have done it. And according to Kevin Fox’s attorney, it was the FBI, not Will County that solved this murder. Thankfully, Scott Wayne Eby has been sentenced to life in prison without the chance of parole.
