Charges dropped against Willowbrook man convicted in boy's 2002 death

DuPage County prosecutors dropped charges Wednesday against a Willowbrook man who served 17 years in prison for the death of his girlfriend's son.

Randy Liebich was sentenced to 65 years after he was convicted of murdering 2-year-old Steven Quinn in 2002.

Last fall, his conviction was thrown out because of ineffective counsel.

The DuPage County State's Attorney said he didn't have enough evidence to retry the case.

Liebich hopes to move on with his life and open his own business.
