Two teenage girls are murdered in broad daylight. Why did it take 5 years for the killer to be caught?

This week the case that will be covered is the Delphi Murders. Abigail Williams and Liberty German went missing in Delphi, Indiana on February 13, 2017 and the next day their bodies were found near Monon High Bridge.

Finally on October 31, 2022 the police had announced they arrested Richard Allen, but he is still going through the judicial system with a trial happening in October 2024.
