Richard Allen was sentenced to 130 years in prison for the killing two teenage girls in Delphi, Indiana.

Delphi, Indiana resident Richard Allen will learn his sentence Friday in the double murders Abby Williams, 13, and Libby German, 14.

The sentencing hearing was over in just about an hour as Judge Fran Gull sentencing Richard Allen to 130 years in prison, 65 years for each of the two girls, bringing to an end a nearly eight year saga that has put a national spotlight on this small Indiana community of just about 3,000 residents. Their bodies were found the next day with their throats had been slashed. Ironically, prosecutors say Libby had recorded Allen on their cell phone as they crossed an abandoned railway trestle.And yet, it was five years before Allen was arrested in 2022-despite multiple confessions, in person, over the phone and in writing, which were presented at trial. Allen's attorney's tried to convince the jury, which remained sequestered the entire time, that he was innocent.
