Richard Allen Trial for Delphi Murders Continues

The trial of Richard Allen, accused of murdering two teenage girls, Abigail Williams and Liberty German, in Delphi, Indiana, is nearing its conclusion as the jury begins deliberations. Allen, 52, faces multiple murder charges and has pleaded not guilty, claiming a lack of physical evidence and arguing that his confessions were made under duress. Prosecutors have presented evidence including a bullet linked to Allen's handgun and a video recorded by one of the victims capturing the moments before their disappearance. The case has drawn significant media attention due to its complexities and the community's desire for closure. If convicted, Allen could face a sentence of up to 130 years in prison for the brutal killings that occurred in February 2017. The trial has been marked by limited information released publicly due to a gag order, adding to the community's frustration and anticipation for justice.
