ByMark Rivera January 8, 2023
''PALATINE, Ill. (WLS) -- It happened three decades ago Sunday, and is one of the most shocking massacres in Illinois history.

Now, investigators and state police are speaking about the progress made since tracking down the killers who brought seven lives to a cruel and callous end at a Brown's Chicken restaurant in northwest suburban Palatine.''


"Once we got Luna's saliva and it came back to his DNA and the chicken, obviously all hell broke loose. It was joy to the extreme," he said. "We went to Carpentersville to arrest Luna. Then we had detectives make the arrest out in Indianapolis [of] Degorsky and then both guys were brought in at the same time."

The convicted killers Juan Luna and James Degorski are now both serving life sentences with no possibility for parole.

Now, Illinois State Police said they're working to coordinate with genealogy testing companies and labs for even more new ways to track down killers.''
