Delphi Murders Trial Continues with DNA Evidence

The trial of Richard Allen, accused of murdering teenage girls Abby Williams and Libby German in 2017, continues to focus on DNA evidence. Forensic scientist Stacy Bozinovski testified that no DNA linking Allen to the crime scene was found on clothing or items collected from the girls, and the cartridge discovered at the scene did not yield sufficient evidence for analysis. She confirmed that male DNA was present, but it was either too minimal or could belong to the victims, indicating no sexual assault occurred. The trial, which began on October 18, is expected to last until mid-November and has seen 15 jurors, including alternates. The jury is set to view police interrogation videos of Allen from 2022 as part of the proceedings. Allen has been in custody since November 2022 after being arrested five years post the incident.
