On February 14, 2017, the dead bodies of two young girls, Liberty German and Abigail Williams, were found near Old Monon High Bridge in Delphi, Indiana, in the US. According to local police, the 13- and 14-year-old girls had gone for a walk, and their final moments can be pieced together from recordings the girls made on their phones.
What makes this case stand out is the fact that an audio and video recording of the person who is believed to be the killer was found on the smartphone of one of the murdered girls. This man can clearly be seen and heard as he approaches the girls. Yet despite releasing the recording to the public, the man in the video was not identified for five more years before being arrested and charged with the murders.
The full gut-wrenching truth was concealed until a trial in 2024 led to a sentence of 130 years’ imprisonment.
