Richard Allen, the Indiana man convicted of killing two girls along a Delphi hiking trail in 2017, infamously known as the Delphi murders, is set to be sentenced on Friday.
An Indiana courtroom on Friday will host a sentencing hearing for Richard Allen, who was recently convicted for the February 2017 killings of two teen girls who had been walking on a hiking trail in Delphi, known as the Delphi murders. A Carroll County jury in November found Allen guilty of murdering Abigail 'Abby' Williams, 13, and Liberty 'Libby' German, 14, who disappeared during their walk along the High Monon Trail on Feb. 13, 2017.
One key piece of evidence presented during the trial was a video Libby recorded on her phone at some point before she and Abby were killed. Jurors watched 43 seconds of the video, which showed Libby and Abby walking with an unknown man wearing a hat and blue utility jacket, in court on Oct. 22. The man in the video became known over the last five years as 'Bridge Guy.' Libby captured the video at 2:13 p.m.
Allen also admitted in one jailhouse confession that he did order the girls 'down the hill.' He repeatedly confessed to killing the girls, apparently saying he wanted to rape the girls but was spooked by a van driving nearby, at which point he decided to kill them.
