The woman accused of killing her on-and-off-again boyfriend and his parents in Chicago’s south suburbs appeared in court Monday.
The Will County State’s Attorney’s office said Jenna Strouble, 30, shot and killed the father of her children, Jake Lambert, after giving him a massage in a vehicle. She then went to the home of Lambert’s mother and stepfather — Stacy Forde, 54, and Patrick Forde, 55 — in unincorporated Crete, Illinois, and shot and killed them too, prosecutors said.
On Sunday, March 22, Strouble asked Lambert if he wanted to hang out and go for a drive, prosecutors said. She came around 11 p.m. or 11:30 p.m. to pick him up, and they went to the Plum Creek Nature Preserve, which was closed, prosecutors said. Strouble said she pulled over on Burnham Road in Sauk Village, and told Lambert she had a surprise for him and was going to give him a back massage, prosecutors said. She said she brought a massage gun with her because Lambert complained that his back hurt and she did not do enough for him, prosecutors said…
