Delphi Murders Solved: Richard Allen Convicted After Years of Misconduct and Conflicting Evidence

After three days of deliberations, an Indiana jury has convicted Richard Allen of murdering 14-year-old Liberty “Libby” German and 13-year-old Abigail “Abby” Williams in 2017. The jury found Allen guilty on all counts, despite the defense’s argument that there was no physical evidence tying him to the crime. The prosecution presented evidence that Allen repeatedly confessed to the murders, both in person and in writing, even while claiming innocence to a psychologist. Sentencing is scheduled for December 20th, and Allen faces up to 130 years in prison.
