Delphi: Abby and Libby’s Families Never Got To Ask Allen Why

Abby Williams was thirteen. Libby German was fourteen. They were best friends who went to a bridge on a February afternoon in 2017 and never came home. Their families have been living inside this nightmare for over nine years.

Richard Allen was convicted. He’s serving a hundred and thirty years. And his defense team just told the Indiana Court of Appeals that the jury only heard half the story.

Your questions about this case are the kind that keep people awake. You’re asking what it means that Allen confessed to shooting girls who were never shot. You’re asking why the jury heard a psychologist call his confessions logical but never heard the audio of what his attorneys describe as confused screaming in solitary. You’re asking why investigators allegedly recorded over an interview with a potential suspect and never took his weapon.

You’re asking about Kegan Kline — whose catfish account was reportedly the last to contact Libby — and why that was ruled a separate investigation. You’re asking about a composite sketch that was shown to the public for years but never shown to the jury. And you’re asking the question that nine years of waiting has earned these families the right to have answered: did the investigation follow every lead, or did it stop when it found Richard Allen?

Robin Dreeke and I sit with these questions. Not because the answers are comfortable, but because Abby and Libby’s families have waited long enough for someone to ask them out loud.
