The Cover-Up of a Murder in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.

#JUSTICEFORSAM
Welcome to #JusticeForSam and all things related to the cesspool of corruption in Lake Geneva & Walworth County, WI.
Samantha Sharkus is my beautiful, kind & intelligent daughter. She was violently strangled to death by her father, Jon Bruno Sharkus, on 4 November 2017, at the Wesley Inn in Lake Geneva.
Lake Geneva Police Det Joseph Ecklund (who abruptly retired from law enforcement in Aug 2020 at the young age of 38), Lake Geneva City Attorney Dan Draper and Walworth County District Attorney Zeke Wiedenfeld all conspired to cover it up and I have the evidence to prove it.
This is Sam's unbelievable & heartbreaking story and my quest for justice and accountability in Walworth County.
In his own angry words, hear Jon Bruno Sharkus confess:
"I know what the f*ck happened that night! I'm the only one there!
I'm the ONLY one that KNOWS THE TRUTH of what the f*ck happened!!!"
In this epic Freudian Slip, Jon confesses he lied to Lead Detective Joe Ecklund when he met with him at the Lake Geneva Police Department to give a statement on March 20, 2018. Jon describes shoving his entire fist down Sam's "f*cking" throat far enough to feel where her esophagus and trachea split off!
Why would anyone do something so VIOLENT and so GROTESQUE instead of calling 911?
--> Why did he wait no less than 74 minutes to call 911? <--
Listen to his confession in the video below - listening discretion is advised.
Detective Ecklund tried his best to keep me in the dark on the status of Sam's "investigation". In fact, I have him on tape instructing her murderer to not post anything about it online so "What's-Her-Name" (aka Me, Sam's Mom) doesn't "stir up a hornet's nest". When I accidentally found out two years later, I began my own investigation by reaching out to independent experts and building a team of confidential informants.
What I discovered was horrifying.
Keep scrolling down to learn more about Sam's case and see real evidence including the official police and medical examiner reports, screenshots, video and audio recordings of the murderer's own words as well as
Det Ecklund assuring her murderer he will destroy evidence for him.

Episode #5: Dear Jon
This video will be going over evidence in the #JusticeForSam case. We have questions about evidence that needs to be answered by Jon Sharkus and Det. Ecklund.
Here is the audio recording from Episode 5 where Jon talks about the "20 rocks" in his pocket.
Here is the secret audio recording Jon made of a phone call between himself and Detective Ecklund
where 2min 41sec in Jon clearly says "I don't know why I didn't call 911 right away..." and at 2min 58sec says
"I didn't even think of calling 911 until I banged on Ray's window..."








The police took this photo in the ER. Notice the petechiae...

This picture was taken the morning after Sam was declared brain dead. Her body was kept on life support to preserve her organs for donation.
Autopsy Photos - these marks are not from a towel.
There are three separate ligature marks on her neck.



Official Reports - Read Here!
POLICE REPORT
# 17-16250
This is Lake Geveva Police Report #17-16250 - the official report of Sam's death
"investigation". Ecklund omits any evidence that doesn't support a finding of suicide. He didn't even bother to check her cellphone until over two months later.
Medical Examiner's Investigative Report
This is the Walworth County Medical Examiner's Investigative Report. There are many discrepancies in this report such as the actual time of the 911 call and the fact Jon never told Ecklund he was in his car for 10-20 minutes.
Sam's
Autopsy
This is the Walworth County Medical Examiner's Autopsy on Sam. The autopsy was performed six days after she was murdered, plenty of time for injuries to fade or heal completely. No mention of two ligature marks for some reason.
Toxicology
Report
This is Sam's toxicology report which speaks for itself. According to my informants, Jon admitted he started giving our children cocaine when they were in grade school, back when Detective Ecklund was the School Resource Officer.
