A semi-truck crosses a railroad crossing on the edge of town in Delphi, Ind., Tuesday, Oct. 1, 2024. INDIANAPOLIS — A man charged in the Indiana killings of two teenage girls during a winter hike in 2017 is going on trial in a case that has long haunted their hometown, Delphi, and spurred endless online speculation.
If jury selection is completed Wednesday, jury instructions and opening statements could take place Friday morning. The trial is expected to last a month. After years of failing to find a suspect, investigators said they went back and reviewed “prior tips.” According to the affidavit, Allen said he had never been to the place where the bullet was found, that he did not know the owner of the property, and “had no explanation as to why a round cycled through his firearm would be at that location.”
Gull has banned cameras from the courtroom during Allen’s trial, and reporters are barred from taking electronic devices inside the courthouse. “The incriminating statements are going to be extremely persuasive because that’s what the jury wants to hear,” Johnston said. “Next to physical evidence, they want to hear that the guy said he did it.”
