Pink Ribbons on Every Lawn: The Unsolved Death of Lilly Bova
Pink ribbons started showing up all over Glenview, Illinois, and every one of them was for a 16-year-old sophomore named Lilly Bova. Lilly was learning to drive and making plans to spend the whole summer at the pool with her best friend. On the last Saturday of spring break, her family says she let a boy she knew into the apartment while her older sister was home. What her sister heard that morning, and what Lilly’s mom found under a bed on Mother’s Day, set off a fight between the sheriff’s detectives and the prosecutors who decide who gets charged, with Lilly’s family caught in the middle. This week we get to know Lilly and the people who loved her, and we walk through the one word on her death ruling that keeps this case wide open. Anyone with information can call Cook County Sheriff’s Police detectives at 708-865-4896.
