Dad murders 8-year-old son during out-of-town visitation/custody time (Winnebago County, Illinois)

The mainstream media is loathe to admit that there are dangerous, mentally unstable fathers who get custody/visitation, and that there are judges and various other officials in the family courts who are responsible. So the reporting tends to be vague and getting vaguer.


How do we know this was a custody/visitation situation? Easy. Dad and the murdered child live in different cities. But you have to pay attention to catch it, so they are figuring that distracted readers won't pick up on that.


Dad is identified as GLEN FLEENER. See the Killer Dads and Custody list for Illinois.
