Descripción

Richard Allen,  convicted in the 2017 murders of Abigail Williams and Liberty German in Delphi, Indiana, has filed an appeal to overturn his conviction. Oral arguments will be heard September 21, 2026.    The jury took two minutes from entering the courtroom to announce the verdict: Richard Allen, guilty on all charges. Allen was convicted of felony murder for Abby Williams and Libby German, as well as for knowingly and intentionally killing both girls. Judge Gull maintained order in the courtroom, where there were no outbursts, but outside on the streets of Delphi, shouts of "Guilty on all charges" echoed.  The jury, composed of seven women and five men, heard 17 days of testimony, including dozens of witnesses, disturbing jailhouse videos of Richard Allen, and photos of Abby and Libby as they were found at the crime scene. They deliberated for 19 hours over parts of four days to reach a unanimous verdict. Richard Allen was found guilty of four counts: two counts of felony murder and two counts of knowingly and intentionally killing Abby Williams and Libby German. Delphi residents tell reporters that they are still in shock after learning that local pharmacy tech Richard Allen has been charged in the 2017 murder of teens Liberty German and Abigail Williams. Photos of Allen in a local bar with the police sketch of the murder suspect posted on the wall behind him have surfaced. We have also learned that while at work, Allen developed photos of the girls, to be used at their funeral, for the families at no charge.  Police say Allen came forward as a witness in the early days of the investigation, but nothing at that time linked him to the crime.    Joining Nancy Grace Today: * David Yoder - Richard Allen's former neighbor   * Fran Longwell - Former Deputy State’s Attorney (Calvert County, MD), Former Assistant State’s Attorney (Prince George’s County, MD) specializing in child abuse, sex offenses and homicides * Caryn Stark [CarynStark.com] - NYC Psychologist; Twitter: @carynpsych, Facebook: "Caryn Stark" * Sheryl McCollum [ColdCaseCrimes.org] - Forensic Expert, Founder: Cold Case Investigative Research Institute in Atlanta, GA.; @ColdCaseTips  * Dr. Todd M.

SERIAL KILLER REX HEUERMANN HEADS TO 'LITTLE SIBERIA" PRISON... ENJOY!

Just weeks after a judge said says Rex Heuerman  "will go to trial come hell or high water," the accused serial killer pleads guilty to all seven murders for which he's charged, and an additional murder.  Heuermann, originally claimed his innocent. Now he will spend the rest of his life in prison, sentenced to multiple life terms for his crimes.   He has been been sent to one of New York state’s oldest prisons, a bleak,  isolated facility in the frigid Adirondack Mountains near the Canadian border.

TRUCK, 2 PET DOGS FOUND ABANDONED: WHERE’S JARED?

Jared McColloch has been missing for going on three years.   November 2023, he set out on a trip from Louisiana to Illinois to see his son.   He was last seen on November 5, at a gas station in Carmi, Illinois, and possibly later in St. Francisville, Illinois.  His truck was found abandoned on the next day in a remote area near the Wabash River in Knox County, Indiana. The truck's doors were open and his two dogs were inside.   The ignition on, but the battery was dead and the gas tank was empty.    Law enforcement from both Illinois and Indiana have been involved in the search with extensive searches conducted using drones, thermal imaging, and boats, and volunteer ground searches.  Surveillance footage, cell phone records, and witness reports have been collected, but his current location remains unknown.    JOINING NANCY GRACE: * Tammie McColloch Reppond - Mother   * Dr. John Delatorre  - Licensed psychologist and mediator, specializing in forensic psychology, psychological consultant to Project Absents: a non-profit organization that searches for missing persons, resolutionfcs.com, Twitter, IG, and TikTok: @drjohndelatorre  * Brian Fitzgibbons - Director of Operations for USPA Nationwide Security,  website: www.uspasecurity.com [http://www.uspasecurity.com/], Instagram: @uspa_nationwide_security   * Nate Eaton - News Director, East Idaho News [https://www.eastidahonews.com/bios/nate-eaton/], Emmy-nominated journalist  * Sydney Silvagni  -  Investigative Reporter, 'Crime Stories' See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
