Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. A jury found Richard Allen guilty on all four counts in the Delphi double murder trial. Prosecutors say Allen brutally killed 13-year-old Abigail (Abby) Williams and 14-year-old Liberty (Libby) German on that unseasonably warm February day in 2017. On this episode, Mallory and Megan discuss the ins and outs of the trial with Indianapolis TV reporter Max Lewis covered it for the entire four-weeks. You'll hear new details about the case, the crime scene, excluded evidence, potential theories, and more.
