A bail hearing was granted for the Delphi murder suspect who is accused of killing Abby Williams and Libby German.
However, the Indiana judge overseeing the case will keep charging documents sealed for now after a brief was filed.Carroll County Prosecutor Nicholas McLeland's main arguments in keeping the affidavit sealed is the belief that Richard Allen, 50, is not the only person involved in the case. Allen is charged with two counts of murder in the deaths of Abigail J."Abby" Williams, 13, and Liberty Rose Lynn"Libby" German, 14. Allen pleaded not guilty.
The girls disappeared while hiking on the Monon High Bridge Trail near Delphi in February 2017. Their bodies were found a day later on Valentine's Day in a wooded area - a quarter mile from an abandoned railroad bridge that's part of a trail system where they planned to go hiking during a day off from school.We've learned Allen worked at a CVS drugstore on West Main Street.
