*Why do you think police are connecting the 'anthony_shots' profile to the Delphi murders?* Anyone with information about this case should call the tip line set up for this investigation - 844-459-5786
Imo, police may have had a warrant served to certain apps in order to get the identification information regarding the fake accounts. They probably also had a warrant for geofencing as well. Those two things combined could possibly aid in providing more substantial proof needed to have a better chance of prosecution. (I hope)
I thought the reason why was because he had communicated with Libby on snapchat?! I don't think he did it...too obese for all that physical activity....he seems more of a stay at home keyboard warrior, creepy living in a basement kind of pervert.
Bridge guy looks Ike his unfit and has a bit of a limp. I think it's either the Keegan guy or his father, apparently they're both pervs. Keegan (aka Anthony shots) perhaps sauced info from tbe girls they were doing bridge walk and when. Although you'd think if so, cops would have had early evidence of this tthrough searching heir tecnology devices. Never would I allow teenage girls to spend a day, in such an isolated, remote,unsupervised area
He was keeping track of lots of girls to pass on information to a pedo ring. Bridge guy came in and waited for them. A second guy was waiting as well. I am sure a gun as well.
Tip from a cop which has always stayed with me... Fight for your life before going anywhere with a person who's trying to abduct you/harm you because that fight will be a lot less painful than whatever they have planned for you, if they get you to the destination they intended. Fight with every ounce of energy - bite, scratch, scream, bend fingers back, poke eyes, pinch, knee/kick/jab/squeeze the groin or throat - from the very start and don't stop until you have a chance to run.
It's so infuriating that the girls were wise enough to leave evidence but even with all that, this creep still hasn't been arrested! I hope they catch a break in this case real soon
For that reason alone they deserve justice. She went out of her way to help the police (probably not knowing how bad it would get). But damn don’t make her efforts be in vain.
I understand the whole "having to keep some stuff secret in an open investigation" deal but it seems like extremely little for the public to work with considering how much data they must have from her recording. It took so long just to release that audio.
@@TrueCrimeRecaps you are so correct! This case just touched people come myself included, so deeply how many of us thought the killer would be caught right away! Here it is five years later and all we have heard and continue to hear is speculation. The guy has an obvious lamp on top of being ugly and overweight! Many prayers have gone out for him to be caught and for justice to be served and they continue because this case touched hearts and we want justice for Libby and Abbyp
@@colorbugoriginals4457 Exactly! This has been the most infuriating tragedy in that regard I've ever heard of. I've been following this since the very first reports they were missing. It's been shrouded in a weird fog almost until now. And obviously they need all the help they can get...yet they refuse to release info that might allow MsOP to assist. Ridiculous. If it IS or WAS another online monster, that's all the more reason to open up and alert us! And he's still free. Wtf.🤔💔🥀
Look at the 2nd image taken looking north. The one with Abby in it. Now if you look at the other end of the bridge (possibly the beginning of the bridge) there is a figure there. Now if it take roughly 10-15 mins to cross and that is him...he has to be booking it to them. Lets hope that they think of using genealogy to find him. of course that is if someone related to him does. GGGGRRRR! Now I'm frustrated. Haunt his ass girls. :D
Libby was my step dad's granddaughter. I really hope and pray justice is served asap. It hurt Randy so badly... He passed from natural causes soon after. But, thank you for covering this.
I am so sorry for the situation you and your family find yourselves in. With recent breakthroughs I am really optimistic that this case is closer than ever to being solved and the person(s) responsible will be held accountable and face the full consequences. There is always hope. Again, so sorry for your situation and loss.
@@jaylong4705 For investigation integrity. They often keep certain information back as a way to identify the actual culprit. If the release every detail then they would have the issue of people admitting to it and no way of confirming if all info is public domain. They release what they feel comfortable and anything they think may muddy the water and derail the investigation is kept to themselves. It will all come out eventually, hopefully when they have the person(s) responsible!
Libby is a straight-up OG Hero for her bravery in not only capturing his image and voice but being clever enough to ditch the phone without that creep realizing. Well done, Libby, I guarantee her actions saved lives. I bet he isht himself when his image was shown on TV. So brazen of him to be smiling in that bar in front of the police sketch. RIP brave Libby and Abby.
I live in Indiana. This was absolutely huge when it happened. I'm glad it's still being talked about a lot. The families deserve answers and justice. Those girls had their entire lives ahead of them.
This case went to national and international news sources . Was and is a story many people still follow. It has one of the largest followings, with a crazy amount of conspiracies and countless episodes from true crime web sleuths and podcasters have been dedicated to it. At this point there’s a reason they aren’t saying who did it.
What makes this even more tragic and sick, is that fact that one of the girls must have seen the other girl die first. I cannot begin to imagine the fear and pain they must have felt. My heart breaks for them and their families. Their lives will never be the same. I hope that evil monster gets caught soon. It's makes me so angry knowing he is still free. This is a really sad, but brilliantly done video. Very informative and respectful.
This horrible crime(s) and the following investigation leaves so many questions that something beyond the homicides is most definitely evident. I would say the suspect Is Not from the immediate area if not outside the state. Also, a person and or persons must know the identity of the suspect and that is where a major league problem lies.
Yeah I've been thinking the same thing....it's such a tragic story and hope they capture the murderer quick and sentence him to the only punishment he deserves DEATH PENALTY
One common thing that I noticed in a lot of these teen murders is that young kids are in places they really shouldn't be alone at that age. Its not the parents fault because no one should ever hurt another person like this but I would never let my teenage daughter go walking in a place like that without me. Again they shouldn't have to worry about it in the first place but sadly it does happen.
In small rural towns you have this mind set that things like this don't happen there. It's a false sense of security for sure but it exists. You never know what kind of crazy is running around.
I was thinking what parent wud let their kid Even Go anywhere near that bridge.?? That’s a tragedy waiting to happen too. Dilapidated And NO Side t Railings
@@dianebarke4475I had good folks ..I went by myself down a river trail in my teens all the time...id float from bridge to bridge in an inner tube picked up by my folks after being dropped off by them ...I don't think it's the parents fault for letting them go together...I'm sure they beat themselves up enough without that being implied ..my folks were very good folks just like them
My wife and I thought this piece of crap would be taken down in less than a week because of the evidence these brave girls were smart enough to collect. It's so frustrating to know this monster is out there. We really hope 2022 is the year Liberty and Abigail get justice. Rest in Peace, little angels.
What a brave girl to pull her camera out and take these images of him. She had to be so scared. We all owe it to them to solve this case. I hope they get Justice in this life and the next.
@@freebird1ification well I must say I thought about that when I first heard this story earlier this year and the conclusion I came to considering the girls passion in criminal investigation would give her a default mind of a sleuth and I can see her cleverly hiding the phone even keeping it concealed by stealthily dumping it without being seen by the perp in order to leave a last clue so its also possible (as it appears to me) she knew she might not make it out alive after this.. So if this theory is true ,then that eliminates any possible hint of a conspiracy if that's what you're implying? But it doesn't hurt to question everything so I encourage your suspicions 👍
This case really chilled me as I was followed home as a sophomore in high school. I was so scared and thankfully when I told the man who was following me my dad was calling (he wasn’t I was frantically calling him) he got spooked and left me alone. I cried for hours and I’ll never forget it. I couldn’t imagine how these girls felt wishing their parents were there…
I'm so sorry that you experienced something so traumatizing🥺when I was a kid this creep tried to lure me out of a store luckily I was smart enough to run but it still haunts me to this day
I’m so sorry you went through that. Glad you had the presence of mind to do what you did! I can’t anymore with how unsafe it is for women and children out in the world!
Back in 1970, when I was 7 years old, i was late for school. I was/am an asthmatic. I could not run. I was rushing to school and a fella pulled over and offered me a ride to school. I said no. He drove around the block a few times. Once pulling up on me again after the first offer, telling me how I would get in trouble for being late. Again I said no, I could walk. Again, about a block from school, he pulled up on me again, telling me the school sent him to get me. This was in Atascadero, Calif. I have on occasion wondered how this situation would've worked out, had I got in his car. Amazing the amount of bullets dodged are a part of our daily lives? RIP these little girls.
It is sad that Evil comes in all forms… In February 2022 Indiana State police said they knew who the killer was but did not have enough evidence for an arrest. The Murder Sheet podcast (I forget the episode) obtained a copy of an FBI warrant which listed a lot of never before seen details about their horrible murders. I understand the video that was recorded by Liberty is actually a little longer but was withheld because it was deemed too traumatizing. As the mother of a 14 yr old daughter I can only imagine how those girls must of felt in their final moments and the heartbreak and sadness their families still deal with. My heart aches for their families.
I was at Disney the other day. This girl who looked about 12 years old was sitting at a table and was kinda balancing the chairs on its back legs when it gave out and she started the fall back. The horror that she’d hit her head on the wall behind her prompted half my table of people to jump up instinctively. I think of this now, because for me personally I’d do anything I could to protect a child whether I know them or not. That instinctual desire to protect children comes so naturally. It did for most the people around us and I’d bet the rest who didn’t immediately react were just oblivious to what was happening. Thinking on this event and how we all reacted...it just shows how absolutely unnatural this man is for killing these two beautiful, innocent little girls. Every single fiber of my being is hardwired to protect kids, even those I don’t know or have any connection to. Yet this monster can do THAT?
This reminds me of when I was a kid swinging on a rope chain that separates between the lines at Disneyland when I fell backwards. I fell so fast and hit my head but still everyone around reached over to try to stop it
Every parent says......"my child would never"..... kids will do most anything they deem dun and exciting. I caught my daughter at 10 in 1999 talking on a chat line for adults to hook up. I had no clue and was so shocked. She had never even been on a date. And after that I had to monitor every move she made. Amazing what kids will do when your head us turned.
Agreed! That’s what my sister did a few years back and my parents, me and my older brother didn’t know but her friends and her older brother (my little brother.) They didn’t even tell us and we’re ashamed frankly she’s still doing this but with guys her age.
Lived in Delphi most my life. This shook our community to the core. I was stopped by news team outside my home. Asking if I wanted to make a statement from a mothers perspective. I declined. Didn't sit right with me after all I still have my children. Prayers hes found soon. We need answers.
I hope this case gets solved those beautiful girls need justice. I can’t imagine what their families and friends are going through. Just a horrible case. And that recording is so creepy.
OMG,I WISH I COULD UNHEAR AND UNSEE IT! Had I been properly warned I would NEVER have seen or heard it ! My own fault for getting morbidly curious about ANYTHING ! God bless those two children ,R.I.P. girls🕊🙏🏼🕊.God please remove the monster from our sad world !
Can’t imagine even living around there with a double child murder or murderers on the loose let alone how the families and friends feel. RIP Abby & Libby.
What their families are going through? What kind of parents drop off their kids in that area and leave them by themselves to have a photo shoot? I wouldn’t leave my dog there alone. Just crazy how these people dont care about their kids. There are so many sick and deprived people just roaming the streets in this country. Why people fail to understand that? Once in a while i see very small children (not older than 5 or 6) riding bicycles alone in the neighborhood. And if something happens to them, those parents will be crying and wondering how it happened. Sickening!!!!
I remember going on long walks in the woods with my best friend at that age.. Those poor, innocent girls, my heart is so broken for them 💔 I can't even count the number of times that a creepy guy would pop out of the woodwork & scare the hell out of us! In our cases, we were lucky & made it home safely! (These poor young ladies should've been able to go on a daytime walk together & not be preyed upon & suffer a horrible demise! R.I.P dear girls 🕊️ 🙏😢
This is one of the cases that haunt me the most. It’s the reason I do not allow myself to engage in ‘current’ true crime. I spent years hoping for updates on this case, wishing LE would release more information to the public so people in this town might be able to identify him. I want justice for these girls. I want answers.
they keep it this way 4 a few reasons: protect the investigation so if they do catch the killer, details not released will help determine whether he is the suspect cuz only the killer will. able to co firm specific info. why hasnt the FBI providrd a suspect based on the killers method of killing
@@countryboundgirl7424Thank God..Libby was my step mom niece.Our prayers have been answered..Do u know what charges they made against him?.I hope his crime was related to this 2 beautiful teen souls
I've always believed they had been catfished or was being stalked on their social media. They had a day off which would have been a regular school day, they could've been anywhere in the trails but they went to the bridge. I think as soon as they saw him they were scared because he clearly wasn't who they was expecting, Libby grabbed that picture knowing they were in big trouble. This guy had it planned, knew exactly where they would be and trapped them on the bridge with no where to go. I hope they get justice for these girls soon! RIP Libby & Abby 🕯️🕊️🕯️
I said this when I first heard about this …I felt like the catfish told them to meet at the bridge …why on earth would they want to go there alone on their day off…i feel like this wasn’t their plan this was someone’s else’s plan . Once they met up with this guy the girl knew this was bad and started recording cause she knew the deal . And once they were asking where was the other person they thought they were meeting I think the catfish was like oh so and so is somewhere else I’ll bring you to him …which could be why he said guys down the hill… saying guys and the way he said it was like he knew them or try to act comfortable like a friend , then there’s Libby’s step grandfather mike… he looks like the sketch , he has the same body and there’s many pics of him posing the same way with his hands in his pocket . Also the cops are saying it’s someone in PLAIN SIGHT . they’re literally hinting the fact they know who it is . There’s interview with him that REALLY rings a lot of bells inside . The fact he was the last person to drop them off , the fact the cops are saying we know the person could be in this room…mike the step grandfather rings a lot of bells for me . And I swear in a interview with him he looks like he’s wearing the same shoes , snd he walks exactly the same as the man in the video and he sounds just like him
@@MrzBadaBing before I clicked on this video I had a vision of the killer. I was shocked when I seen the step father. Although my vision had more facial hair
To add to the craziness of this case, earlier in the year police in the neighbouring town of Delphi arrested a sick creep who kidnapped a girl and was found alive, tied up in his basement. I thought for sure this would have been the perp but nothing has been said! If this guy isn’t the killer … how many sick, twisted messed up predators live in that small area?!!
Recently heard there may be up to 4,000 unidentified serial killers loose in the US. So like 80 per state if you spread ‘em out evenly. They said about 50 being active at any one time. Now imagine how many more psychos are out there that aren’t quite serial killer-level crazy...scary to think about 😬
@@Emiliapocalypse Which is why I am armed with lethal force every time I go out anywhere. Everyone should be. Even up the odds against surviving an attack by a predator.
@@zenpaganwarrior Exactly, II don't go anywhere without lethal force. Neither do my daughters. i think there would be less crime if all law-abiding citizens with a moral compass were to carry.
@@FarmerFpv as the state of Ohio has recently passed the constitutional carry law I am DEFINITELY going to be carrying to be sure to be able to protect my family and friends. Especially my kids and grandkids.
Okay, want it solved? The killer was ron logan, there ya go. Case closed. Think im joking? Look into his first interviews after the incident and the clothes he wears, and his mannerisms. Ron logan is dead now and the case will become cold.
Ron logan was the killer, simply. His own mannerisms out him as the killer, watch his interviews. Didnt convince me that he is just a innocent and that it just so happened to go down on his property.
It's gut-wrenching to imagine their last moments, having to witness each other's torment, possibly being too terrified to make a run for it or maybe one girl didn't want to leave the other behind, and possibly wondering if help would arrive from a passerby. The way they were found is chilling too, suddenly panning over with a camera and spotting them in whatever state they were in must have been a huge shock. So sad. It's not just the bridge that is Stephen King-esque from "Stand by Me," this whole story of a mysterious child killer that no one can reliably remember seeing in town is also like the killer clown monster in "It." Life is worse than horror sometimes.
This case will always haunt me. I know so many true crime stories, well-known and less-known, but Abby and Libby's case is just horrific. And the lack of progress and weird police strategy is so frustrating.
Chances are the weird police strategy isn't 'weird.' If they got the Feds involved, every press conference, sketch, and release they made is some well calculated action. There may be misdirection involved as well, especially with them saying that 'The killer is probably in this room.'
This is why you can never let pedos, rapists and murderers out of jail. They will ALWAYS reoffend. This guy has done more before this, and since this crime. Leaving "signatures" and posing bodies doesn't happen on a whim. This is a guy that gets a high off the crimes and the chase. Since they wanna release psychos all the time they should castrate them, and put tracking devices inside them...Then they can see who was there that day. The only other option is the killer is a cop or connected to some form of law enforcement. Calling in bomb threats pulls all resources to another location. He's also fooled cops for a long time.
@@AllOuttaBubblegum123 If they didn't believe the convicted to be guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, then they wouldn't have been convicted in the first place. That's how the legal system works, so if we enacted this system, then falsely accused would be chemically castrated as well, because we wouldn't know they were falsely convicted.
@@jesussaves6625 not talking about falsely accused. The man who kidnapped Jaycee Dugard had kidnapped and raped before. He was paroled and let out and then kidnapped her on her way to her school bus stop.
But, what have the police done with it? They need to publish the rest of it. It's been years. What can it hurt now. Someone may still recognise his voice when he talks naturally.
To think what these young ladies had to endure breaks my heart. They were so smart to take the video and keep recording. I'm so sorry to these young ladies and their families that with the clues these young ladies left, that no one can solve this case.
The “Guys, down the hill” is the voice of someone older than teenage years… that always made me cringe when they keep going younger and younger with the age of the suspect.
@@allandoyle3555 Remember his walk is going to be altered by the fact he's stepping on railway ties. His voice sounds old but that might be because it's being recorded by a phone inside a jacket pocket and it's just muffled or distorted.
Nope, i've listened to Fb video clips of a couple of the young guys who've been under suspicion and questioned, and they sound very much like bridge guy.
As a person who is really invested in this case, I havent yet seen a better cover of this than yours. Also both your narration and story telling is impecable and your videos are getting better every day. Love from Turkey 💜
With the slim chance that the Delphi murderer had a phone of his own with him at the time of the murders, couldn't it be possible to get a list of all the phone numbers that pinged the cell phone towers in the area during that specific time frame and go from there? Please find this killer so we can get the family some justice and prevent him from doing this to someone else's family.
I have actually been wondering lately why tower pings have not been used in a lot of the riot cases, etc. All of these people using their phones, taking pics, and tower pings could put them at the scene of crimes, and a lot of the pics would have gps locations embedded in them. Things in America are not adding up anymore.
@@lavenderblue489 What if someone just happens to be in that area when the riot breaks out. They would also likely run into it being a civil rights violation because of privacy laws.
What should have happened was that every cctv footage from every business within 20 miles for the whole week before should have been exhaustively studied for anybody that had the same outfit on and who he may have been.
Retracing this case, it pains me more than anything, the loss of life. Why, why, why? Two girls having their day, going on about their day in all of its innocence, minding their business and a monster has to come and destroy that, take it all away, with this terrible compulsion to end a life. I cannot imagine the fear, the terror they must have felt, knowing they were never coming home. My soul hurts for these girls and their family. And for all who suffer this same fate.
Its just another instance of the sagacity of following your instincts, that natural intuition is the most efficacious self defense you have, more so than a weapon. Its infuriating that girls and even adult woman are still taught to be nice regardless, put the proprietary first and your fears second. Even if you are going to act on that primal fear telling you you're in danger, do so in a subtle way. " don't raise the alarm just on the account of your feelings , don't be hysterical" The same way we have failed young men in this country by leaving them in an eternal adolescence. no path to manhood, until they loose hope, any sense of self & then , of course, get angry & either start shooting, or internalize and start useing. We haven't taught our girls anything beyond the Victorian era, " be nice, be polite to your killer, if you raise the alarm it will be dissmised, you're too emotional " These young girls where brave to get video footage, I just wish our culture had told them, " if you're fearful enough you feel the need to document evidence, then you need to call for help immediately " However, the fear of appearing foolish, easily frightened, alarming parents, or stepping out of line, causing trouble. There is so much ingrained in them to keep the peace at all costs. though we don't really say it aloud anymore, because we pretend we dont beleive it anymore. But we still hold hands with the classic long standing idea; " woman can become hysterical over any stimulus, don't over excite them, don't give them math , don't expect logical behaviour, woman lead with emotions "..... Of course we can't speak so plainly, its frowned upon, and can be less efficient. Unfortunately there is no need to spell it out, television , movies, they drill home the same message, in a soothing , not too obvious, subconscious, propagandist way.......
@@willadafanderson6714 You are absolutely right about this! 💯💯💯 A thousand percent correct. Couldn't agree more. No matter how strong we try to raise our girls, we're fighting against so damn much bullshit that is burned into their minds at every single turn by society.
I have been glued to the t.v watching and listening to you talk about this horrifically stomach turning horror story!!! My heart goes out to these two girls, their families and all who care for them. The townsfolk who must have been terrified to even take a walk in their own hometown. Absolutely heart wrenching. May this monster feel God's wrath yesterday and for every day until he is put down.
"their bodies lying next to each other, best friends forever." I'm not even a minute in and i'm crying. What a haunting yet beautiful sentiment. May Abigail and Liberty find eternal peace and may they rest knowing that they had not only their families who loved them dearly, but they always had each other. I know it's much too early, so feel free to roam and see the world, but rest soon girls, there's a better place waiting.
Thank you from Indy for such a compelling retelling of the Delphi girls and their unidentified killer, known only as Bridge Guy. Their case long unsolved, Abigail and Liberty deserved a fact based narrative professionally delivered, like this one. It can only help.
I’m curious to know how he would have reacted if the girls announced they were live and viewed by many people like hey sir, you’re online say hi to all the subscribers! Or pretended she was facetiming a family member or friend and announced his presence for him to hear. I wonder if this would have deterred anything or just made him irate and act sooner. I hope these beautiful girls get their justice soon
I do this when i get in taxis. I also make a point of photographing the plates and sending to friends. I make sure the driver knows. A good guy will understand. A bad guy might not try anything.
a stranger in the woods getting close to you would set off all kinds of alarms even when it's completely harmless. that out-of-shape old man knows what he was doing was highly suspicious
Probably just that they felt unsafe and felt that he could have been intentionally following them (as opposed to just walking in the same direction on the trail.) Often when we get a bad feeling from someone, or a situation it's because we are subconsciously picking up on body language. It can be hard to put your finger on but it's totally instinctual. I think it's fair to say that he might have just seemed "off" to the girls and they trusted their gut reaction.
@@360.Tapestry He wasn't an old man, pretty sure the weapons around him underneath his coat were why he maybe appeared older and out of shape. He is likely 22 to 30 years old and from a town surrounding that small town. Likely rented a car to do the crime and likely immediately took them somewhere else, brought them back at some point, I think.
Kids have great intuition it's just depends on which kid acts on those intuitions and who doesn't. When I was a kid I would get this sinking feeling in my chest and my stomach would start to hurt like I had to do a number 2.........that's when I knew I had to get tf out of there. It saved me many times. People have to learn to listen to and trust their bodies. Your body has sensors that can sense danger before your mind even processes it. Like animals have we humans possess the same thing except we don't listen to ours as much. We're always saying "Eh I'm just being paranoid again."
@@marleyex2695 true, there are many things always at work here to dull our instincts and keep them that way, things like toxins in our water and soil,air, propaganda on all forms of media, lies and secrets kept to keep people confused all the time, man made drugs and chemicals etc. so that means we have to focus more on what our bodies and brains, our spiritual side too tells us with many more senses at play than the top 5 or 6.
I hope this is taking so long because police want to be 1000% sure they have enough evidence to prove guilt. These young ladies deserve justice, their families deserve answers. Thanks Chris and Amy.
I hope so too!! Too many times innocent people are arrested when the police want to arrest someone so bad & being pressured to find a suspect so they just pick up the first person who they think will be convincing enough... literally leaving a murderer still out there free! That’s not justice. I hope they’re trying to be sure too!
typically the police try to keep the info they have super close so the perp isn’t aware he’s being tailed. the media often ruins that by exposing every bit of info they can get their hands on.
This isnt how it works unfortunately. Time is not your friend. The likelyhood of them ever solving this case is relatively slim, and the idea that they have been silently building a case despite being all over the place publicly is just not realistic. Like with all case, they have burned through all the leads likely to produce a result and are now just scraping the bottom of the barrel.
My nieces played softball with libby and went to school with the girls. Someone has to know who did this. It's been 5 years these girls and their families need and deserve justice
I would advise anyone that if they feel that someone is following them, or if you get that gut feeling, just whip out your phone and record and point it at the person. Don't feel like you have to record on the DL. Make them aware that you know they are there. Then send the video to a couple of friends. This monster has done this before because he would not have been so brazen to just follow them.
So they could possibly be attacked quicker? Why not use that phone to call 911? Even if there is no time on the phone you can still call 911. On every phone.
I agree. That's why it's recommended when walking alone at night to make eye contact with anyone you encounter. Don't look at the ground or away. Let them know you're aware of their presence and (now with camera phones) that you have their image. It shows confidence and that you aren't going to lie down and be their victim. Libby and Abby did everything they should have that day. Especially impressive for a 13 and 14 year old since many grown women wouldn't have thought to do that.
@@Shayna11NM odd but I watched a Madonna interview where she said she looked everyone in the eye on the street when she was young and living in NYC. It stuck with me and I always do that.
Girl I get what you're saying, but crazy people are not people you want to provoke, ESPECIALLY it you think they've set their sights on you for something nefarious... Good advice, IF you've gauged the situation and deem it safe for you at that time. Otherwise, do as much communication and documentation in secret as you possibly can!!! At this point, if my gut is telling me "dudes following me" idc if he's just trying to catch up to ask me about my cars extended warranty or what he wants I'm calling 911 as a precaution!!
I'm from Delphi Indiana my whole life..it's very odd noone in this small town recognizes him. As well all pretty much, know everyone or least friends of friends kinda thing. I definitely always thought these girls met someone on the net, claiming to be a young guy and tricking them to meeting. It's such a sad case. I pray we have answers for the girls and the families. Our small town isn't the same, You can't trust anyone anymore. And the trail , not one female would want to be on now, it used to be a really great hiking spot. I'm way to scared to go now
I've always believed they were there to meet w someone they met online. It's a perfect place to go without risk of being seen or getting caught....typical teenaged girl thing to do.
The best Ive seen Crime Dive Delphi Double Murders uncanny close resemblance to 2 suspects ?.. not sure and theory makes sense Matt Sullivan with local good sources I can’t understand why no one has published this yet
This catfish theory really makes sense. In interviews the parent indicate that the girls really wanted to go to the park and they were really trying hard to get a ride there….it looks relatively boring. These girls don’t look like avid hikers. I had a park near my home growing up, I was not that interested in going there at that age unless I was meeting up with friends to hang out or ride 4 wheelers.
I watch a lot of true crime videos, but this is the first time I've seen anything from this channel. You do an amazing job! I'm definitely subscribing.
This is still so stuck with me. My mom always told me that if god forbid I was ever in a situation like this, to run because even if they really shoot, it’s better than anything they’d do to you if they go you.
@@lemmykilmister545 where the hell could they run to? They were on a rickety old bridge in the middle of nowhere. These kids didn't lack street smarts, they were trapped by a madman.
@@vickikay25 Run down the tracks. One they were guaranteed faster than that old man, and two eventually they'd come across people. Stop being so dumb. I used to work for CP, I know all about how to run down the tracks lmao. If they had any sort of street smarts they would have ran. Stop being so dumb
This case has been a mystery for to long. As for the young girl to record with her phone was very smart. One has to wonder how they felt so nervous to do so. What exactly caused her to do so. Prayers for their family to have gone through this
Agreed! There’s so many reports that the audio just rolled in her pocket and it recorded quite a bit before the end. Apparently (unverified) the whole thing wasn’t released because he was pretending to be law enforcement and they didn’t want the public to focus on a cover up.
She got ‘that spidy sense’ going. Another thing I don’t get was Libby’s dad was there to pick them up when he passed a guy who told dad that ‘he thought they were under the bridge’, was he ever found?
@@TrueCrimeRecaps I just saw your comment & all I can say us "wow". Sometimes I feel they should tell the public, but I do understand they have to withhold certain information. Smh at such a crazy & truly heartbreaking case. TY Chris & Amy for the vid. God bless 👑🙏🏼🕊💘💘👍👏🥵😠
@@TrueCrimeRecaps shame they didn't just run, guy looks incapable of running too fast. Someone must recognise him. I think cops might have their man with creep Keegan, his just even fatter now.
The police seem to be holding back too much info. The more the public knows, the easier it may be for someone to think of who it could be. It has been almost 5 years. They really screwed up.
Yeah, the case is either sketchy or was compromised. The whole “We have more audio but it wouldn’t be useful to the public so we’re not going to release it” seems shady. That statement came when they released like one or two more words he said beyond the “down the hill” we all know.
@@nthomas87 Right, a few more words might give away his identity. This isn't Name that Tune, in this case he is the winner for getting away with murder. If he had a voice like Darth Vader, sure 4 words would be good enough. If he were my dad, I might need more than that.
@@nthomas87 It could just be that the rest of the audio is too disturbing and they didn't want the family to hear it. But at this point the pros of releasing the audio probably outweigh the cons
You have to be careful what's given out though. People will false confess and we want the guy who actually committed the crime. Also people may introduce info during questioning or tipping, that may lead to an arrest.
@@dhelix85 Absoutely but they kept a pic out of public eye of someone of interest, they maybe could have played more of his voice, they have kept a lot to themselves and obviously that route has not been working. I am hopeful that someone may come forward, this evil person needs to be taken off the streets.
Five years ago I was shocked about the murder. I lived in Delphi for a few years, my sons went to elementary school there, Delphi was a wonderful place to raise your kids. I would have never guessed that something like that could happen there. My prayers for the families.
I had just moved to Indiana months prior and remember how terrified and enraged everyone in the state was that they couldn’t find out who the killer was. Even now, people get angry when the girls are brought up because it’s still an open case
Part of me wonders why the killer wouldn't make off with any devices he found on Libby and Abbey and destroy them. Thanks for another insightful, engaging, and thorough video!
I find it interesting as well that he didn't demand their phones or take their phones after and dispose of them unless he thought the phones wouldn't connect him to them? But even then, it's still strange.. maybe he's a disorganized killer ...clearly he didn't know he was being filmed, kudo's to the girls ❤️
He may have thought the “Find My Phone” feature would be used (unaware the app wasn’t on the phone) regardless, it hasn’t led to him so far? It’s mind boggling that there’s a photo and voice recording of this guy, yet he’s still out there. Maybe 2022 will be the year those girls and their families will have justice!?
@@addiegraves3 hay...if he knew about the phones but didn't take them...maybe he's been in prison and doesn't know. I saw a show where this girl gets kidnapped from a parking lot, and the guy had been in prison and didn't know everything a phone can do and that's how she got away
Just heartbreaking. So many children and babies being murdered, I can’t help but wish for the maximum penalty of death when children are involved. These are the worse of the worse and the crimes only escalate.
This is a very upsetting case. I live 200 miles from where this took place, on the news every night for awhile. The way the man walked is very unique, he walks like he's in need of a hip replacement. also tapping his right foot to his left foot walking, it's almost like he had some kind of motor tic walking. This awful man has away that he walks, such a shame he hasn't been found yet
This must be one of the most puzzling cases ever. So many clues and pieces of evidence and still not able to pin down anyone??? Even if this guy is THE guy, still so many unclear details I can't wait to hear about. Thanks again Chris for yet another brilliant episode.
This is the most concise description I’ve heard about this case. I’ve got a lot of hope that with the changing forensic technology, the families will get the justice they need and rightly deserve. Rest In Peace girls.
@@sfeigh No. Basic investing reporting that even an elementary school student could identify; the suspect was not "drawing a demon attacking a girl." It was Jack from a nightmare before Christmas. They reported it. They got it wrong. As usual, no research before reporting. Sound familiar, Scott?
Michigan girl here. Back in the 1970s, when I was 10, my 9-year-old friend and I were playing by a creek near our neighborhood. There was a freshwater spring on the other side of the creek with a parking area. A car pulled up with what looked like a guy and girl inside. At first they looked to be making out. But my friend got a weird feeling and started pushing me to go back up the trail to our neighborhood. We heard a car door open and I stopped and looked around. The "girl" pulled a wig off his head, revealing they were two guys. The other guy yelled "get 'em!" and we began to run. Thankfully, because there was a creek between us and them, we got away and safely home. Stupidly, we never told our parents because we were afraid of getting in trouble for playing where we weren't allowed to go. We never went there again. And also thankfully, nothing further like this happened to any other kids. I've often wondered who those guys were and what would had happened to us had my friend not had the sense that something was wrong.
From day one I've been feeling they were lured there by a 'catfish' type killer. Which is why they went to a secluded area, were dropped off, used snapchat, and also, in their precious innocence, did not go alone, whichever girl it was that was targeted.
It wasn't that secluded. A detective who used to the on the case said that this is a bit of a misconception. He said that there's a house which looks directly down upon where the crime scene was. It was a short walk from the town.
As a recovering drug addict with a DUI I can't ever imagine people thinking I may have murder anyone because of that :( Anything this specific case has haunted me. For years. I'm pretty desensitized to this stuff but something about this case really hit me. It might be because I grew up out in the country. I remember seeing a lot of comments about how the family could let them go out and about alone but the truth is when you live out there things are a lot different than living in the city... My whole childhood was spent outdoors. All of this story is heart breaking. I feel like Libby protected Abby. They protected each other. The way you explain that there's only one way on and off is so scary because that means once they were over and he was over there was nothing that could really be done. I had never heard about the signatures left and it's just really scary to me I hope they find the killer soon
Everyone has gotten a DUI. The system is set up to screw the citizens. I got a DUI for literally SLEEPING in my car, even though by DEFINITION its DRIVING under influence. Recovering just means you've turned a corner in your life that some others can't understand. Neither of those things mean you are a bad person or accuseable. Just wanted to let you know you are good. Don't judge yourself harshly, the world, overpopulated with idiots, will judge you when they have no business doing so. Stay strong. YOU are the only thing that matters.
@@sev7nwest742 thank you for that. You don't know how much I needed it. I agree with you. I'm on probation now for 2 years even though my BAC was zero I'm having to pay thosands for a breathalyzer machine and do a whole lot of other stuff. And honestly it feels like it's set up to get you back in jail. It's always the same people in there. Poor people...addicts...mentally I'll. And it's all about money. Ugh. Really need this message 💕 the time I spent in there was horrible to say the least. I was violated so many times. Spent 14 days in a holding cell with way over the max amount of women to be in there. Only showered twice. That was the least horrible things that happened while I was there. I'm so scared I'm gonna end up back. but I've actually been doing really good. I hope your 2022 is amazing
Using a DUI to demonize someone is bullshit. People make mistakes/police are dirty/shit happens. That guy might be a pos but a DUI doesn't make someone a bad person.
I never stop checking in on this case hoping that it will be solved... I'm around the same age as the girls would be and lived in a tiny town like them. It haunted me how easily this could have been my friend and I on one of our walks
The signatures and removal of clothes is eerie, indeed. I certainly hope they have the man/men who did this! Those girls and their families are due for justice!
The fact that they were probably posed in some significant way, i.e. the "signature" leads me to think this person is a serial killer. How many other girls has he killed?
I also live in Indiana. I'm worked temporarily in Delphi many years ago, and yes, everyone knows each other. Good people there. Every year, I pray they find this monster with definitive evidence and put him away for good. The families have suffered enough. Very frustrating.
This is the most baffling case I've ever heard of. I wonder if we will ever know the truth. I can't believe how organized this killer was. The investigator's need to release more information. He's done this before the girls and I'll bet he's done it since....creepy
We can’t stop thinking the same thing. Please for the love of macaroni, release more info! Let the public help! Maybe he talked about fantasies to someone? Maybe he’s done something similar somewhere else in a different jurisdiction? We live in a public information era. Use it, detectives!
What more information do you think they could have? Im only a couple minutes in so, maybe he’ll answer for me…. I’m not being sarcastic so please don’t take it that way.
@@jennifercarr9111 of what’s on the phone?! Wow!! I was understanding that the only thing recorded was ‘down the hill’!! With the different inflections people use in their speech, I absolutely agree that more of the recording needs released, if there is, indeed more!! Thank you Jennifer!
Keegan was my neighbor growing up. I graduated with his older brother and hung out with his older sister in high school. He was roughly 6 years younger than me. He was an extremely spoiled kid growing up and always had a bad attitude. I never would have guessed he would grow up to be this person but at the same time he’s always been kind of narcissistic. Being disgustingly spoiled by both his parents definitely contributed negatively to his overall personality. I’m not sure if his mom moved away from our home town but it is only roughly 20 mins from the bridge itself.
But the actually crime scene area is actually quite small. I can't understand why the girls were not found on the 13th. All those people and a drone. Something doesn't add up
honestly after watching this i'm going to teach my nieces that if they're isolated alone in a setting like that and they encounter a stranger who strikes fear in them to stick their ph in the stranger's face, welcome them to facebook live and ask them if they have a daily message for all the viewers. what's there to lose at that point. poor girls did the best they could. they should be able to find that mystery man by that footage. you'd be surprised at the level of protection people from certain families receive and those who are connected. lots of "unsolved" cases lingering over that
yeah. police protect certain scumbags because they cooperate and get bigger fish busted. im sure that is whats happening. hes going to get a lot of time and they gonna break that fat boy in prison. Indiana has the absolute worst, most disgusting crimes, by far, of anywhere in the USA. i wonder why?
NEVER agitate a potential killer. If he hadn't planned on murdering the girls, putting a phone in his face and asking him to speak to FB live could certainly enrage the stranger enough to kill them and destroy the phone.
He likely knows the killer whether he knows it or not, and there are all sorts of things about his criminal behavior that need to be established. Any possibility of getting this goes out the window when he becomes an active participant in the legal system. They were likely hoping he would slip up or reveal something. It is also entirely possible that if they could establish he wasnt just committing crimes over the computer, they would likely pin it on him since they are desperate and can connect him to the girls.
Like you said Chris, you'd sorta think after all this time SOMEONE would've maybe recognized this evil dude either by the images released or the audio...can't help but feel like possibly someone or several people are in the know of what went down but sadly won't talk. I'm not done with the vid yet but I know lately that Anthony shots guy has been talked about a lot in relation to this case and is definitely pretty odd and the timing seems to be right. Regardless, it's so damn sad what those girls went through and how much life they had left 💔💔 anywho, I freakin love yalls channel and thanks so much for all the work you both put in!! 😊😊 it's awesome seeing a couple work together so well the way you two do and I love yalls delivery and how your facts always seem to be spot on 🙂
Shelby, can’t tell you how much we appreciate you. And completely agree with the way your brain is working. Police even said people will be surprised who this is. And that they may have already spoken to him. Maybe they do know who it is, like you said, but they don’t have the evidence to bring him in yet. Dammit this needs to be solved! 🤬
When this happened I had just moved to Indiana, I lived very close to Delphi, everyone at school was talking about it. I just couldn’t believe this would happen in such a small town…
This young girl followed her gut instinct and turned on the video. They deserve justice and the creep that did this deserves every bad thing that can happen in prison. I hope an arrest is coming soon, their families and community deserve closure.
Adore you!! (We certainly learned a lot!) if you’ve got the time, go down the rabbit hole online. Lots of VERYYY interesting theories you won’t be able to stop thinking about.
I always wondered how he caught up with the girls. They noticed him prior to being forced down the hill. And their intuition was so spot on that Libby recorded him. I’m positive they didn’t just stand there, waiting for him to catch up. I just wonder how it occurred. This case is heartbreaking. I’m so glad their killer has finally been arrested, awaiting trial. RIP Abby and Libby
This is a case I pray will be solved very soon. I think he is connected and knows what happened RIP Abby & Libby. Gone but not forgotten. Season's Greetings from South Africa.
I just wanted to say thank you Chris & Amy for continually bringing attention to this case. Libby & Abby deserve justice!! This monster deserves to pay!! I live in KY, I remember when this happened. I've followed it closely. My oldest daughter was about the same age as the girls, it hit home. It's past time for these baby girls get justice & their family, friends & community get some type of peace.
EXCELLENT recap! When Chris said "Best Friends Forever" I got a chill from head to toe! Really sad and terrified for the children of our nation. What's next in this case? Hopefully some solid evidence as to who did this heinous crime!
Brilliantly told Chris. A convoluted story, with so many questions, all still unanswered. I pray that 2022 brings close and peace to these two families, that he is arrested and convicted and finds his huge cell mate 'Bubba' is very attracted to him and wants to show it.! I wish you both an extremely happy new year Chris and Amy. ❤🌹xx
This is by far the best analysis/recap of the case I've seen, so much I learned about the case. Thank you for this. Considering it was on Valentine's Day, catfishing seems likely. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the employee at the plant who made the bomb threat a few days later. God I hope for justice for those two little girls.
I remember when I first heard this story & it's just as appalling, heartbreaking, & maddening. I'm so glad she knew he was up something, POS!! RIP Angel's 🕊🕊🍂🌷🌻💕 They need to catch this monster. Prayers for the families! God bless 👑🙏🏼🕊🌾🌾
I actually believe that its her grandfather. He's turned into the spokesman for reasons beyond a grieving relative. I have suspension that the FBI has got an eye on him. I agree. They probably changed the sketch to see if he'd slip up.
Why would they record Libby's grandfather? Surely, they would not do that if they knew him or if they recorded him and he was her grandfather, surely that would have been obvious in how they spoke to him. Let's not accuse an innocent man of murdering his granddaughter and friend.
Top notch again! I appreciate how you clearly state what is fact vs. what is speculation. You don't blend the two or claim to know anything that isn't backed up. I appreciate your credibility and it's what keeps me subscribed. I have been hoping they catch this total waste of existence since I heard about it.
I think it could be someone who hunts. His clothing was thick like layered. The underneath clothes look like they could be camo, he has a dear kit. He carried a knife and (potentially a gun) and despite his weight which I would guess is closer to 230-250 he came quickly across the bridge. Which says it’s someone who’s used to the area, desensitized to blood and violence and sometimes hunters pose their trophy’s by having them fluffed or whatever. Also no one would pay attention to blood on a hunter. But he’s probably long gone by now (out of state) but someone knows him and that’s the sad part 💔
Exactly! There is no way somebody close to this guy just has to recognize him by the video then nailed it in with the voice clip even if it's just a neighbor but somebody must know something!
I'm really surprised someone was able to get away during broad daylight. I'm not sure how often these things happen during the early afternoon, but that part stood out to me.
People stay out of jail when they have connections. He knew someone, somewhere connected in local politics. He was the son, grandson, or nephew of the coroner, the judge, a current or prior commission member, maybe a sheriff or mayor. If you started poking around local forms you will probably figure it out, local people feel some kind of way about these 'untouchables' and will talk.
A killer waiting randomly in the middle of nowhere with a weapon for a couple of kids & not expecting to be caught or interrupted doing this crime. I can't get past that
I can't think this was random. It's way too perfect. I bet that sick fuck lured them there somehow. Super isolated out there from the description. Poor girls were probably giving him every bit of info he needed to set them up and they didn't even realize it.
@@FBobby Yeah I can't help but think there's some key point we're missing that could solve this whole case. Hope he's not a serial killer seeing he's so organised
It does happen though, look at the case of Israel Keyes, he hid kill kits around the country and would wait in woods or some remote area for someone to randomly come along. Unlike a lot of serial killers he didn’t have a specific victim type, he simply targeted anyone who was vulnerable when he had the urge. What did him in was kidnapping and murdering a girl in his hometown and using her debit card to withdrawl ransom money, normally he would travel out of state to one of his hidden kits then find a victim but his urges simply became too strong and he got sloppy. One of the most terrifying killers that’s not well known who also robbed banks, arson, literally everything under the sun. Ted Bundy was his idol so that should give good insight into the type of person he was.
*Why do you think police are connecting the 'anthony_shots' profile to the Delphi murders?*
Anyone with information about this case should call the tip line set up for this investigation - 844-459-5786
This is a great cover of this frustrating case, thanks. Justice for the girls 👍
Imo, police may have had a warrant served to certain apps in order to get the identification information regarding the fake accounts. They probably also had a warrant for geofencing as well. Those two things combined could possibly aid in providing more substantial proof needed to have a better chance of prosecution. (I hope)
I thought the reason why was because he had communicated with Libby on snapchat?!
I don't think he did it...too obese for all that physical activity....he seems more of a stay at home keyboard warrior, creepy living in a basement kind of pervert.
Bridge guy looks Ike his unfit and has a bit of a limp. I think it's either the Keegan guy or his father, apparently they're both pervs. Keegan (aka Anthony shots) perhaps sauced info from tbe girls they were doing bridge walk and when. Although you'd think if so, cops would have had early evidence of this tthrough searching heir tecnology devices. Never would I allow
teenage girls to spend a day, in such an isolated, remote,unsupervised area
He was keeping track of lots of girls to pass on information to a pedo ring. Bridge guy came in and waited for them. A second guy was waiting as well. I am sure a gun as well.
Tip from a cop which has always stayed with me... Fight for your life before going anywhere with a person who's trying to abduct you/harm you because that fight will be a lot less painful than whatever they have planned for you, if they get you to the destination they intended. Fight with every ounce of energy - bite, scratch, scream, bend fingers back, poke eyes, pinch, knee/kick/jab/squeeze the groin or throat - from the very start and don't stop until you have a chance to run.
I have always told my daughter's that!
I think the girls were lied to or manipulated. I don't think they even knew he was a threat UNTIL the last minute.
i was just saying that to my mom earlier, that in all these cases one thing I've learned is fight right off. your odds only get worse.
Yep absolutely, chances are also way better of someone hearing you and/or the killer getting spooked off by the noise and commotion.
Yes.
Fight and scream like a wildcat. Make them kill you on the spot rather than let them take you to their lair.
It's so infuriating that the girls were wise enough to leave evidence but even with all that, this creep still hasn't been arrested! I hope they catch a break in this case real soon
For that reason alone they deserve justice. She went out of her way to help the police (probably not knowing how bad it would get). But damn don’t make her efforts be in vain.
I understand the whole "having to keep some stuff secret in an open investigation" deal but it seems like extremely little for the public to work with considering how much data they must have from her recording. It took so long just to release that audio.
@@TrueCrimeRecaps you are so correct! This case just touched people come myself included, so deeply how many of us thought the killer would be caught right away! Here it is five years later and all we have heard and continue to hear is speculation. The guy has an obvious lamp on top of being ugly and overweight! Many prayers have gone out for him to be caught and for justice to be served and they continue because this case touched hearts and we want justice for Libby and Abbyp
@@colorbugoriginals4457 Exactly! This has been the most infuriating tragedy in that regard I've ever heard of. I've been following this since the very first reports they were missing. It's been shrouded in a weird fog almost until now. And obviously they need all the help they can get...yet they refuse to release info that might allow MsOP to assist. Ridiculous. If it IS or WAS another online monster, that's all the more reason to open up and alert us! And he's still free. Wtf.🤔💔🥀
Look at the 2nd image taken looking north. The one with Abby in it. Now if you look at the other end of the bridge (possibly the beginning of the bridge) there is a figure there. Now if it take roughly 10-15 mins to cross and that is him...he has to be booking it to them.
Lets hope that they think of using genealogy to find him. of course that is if someone related to him does. GGGGRRRR! Now I'm frustrated. Haunt his ass girls. :D
Libby was my step dad's granddaughter. I really hope and pray justice is served asap. It hurt Randy so badly... He passed from natural causes soon after. But, thank you for covering this.
❤ 🙏 ❤ your Family will get your justice. Bless you and your Family....
I am so sorry for the situation you and your family find yourselves in. With recent breakthroughs I am really optimistic that this case is closer than ever to being solved and the person(s) responsible will be held accountable and face the full consequences. There is always hope. Again, so sorry for your situation and loss.
Why aren't the cops releasing all the evidence they have?
@Dick Thunderdong I hope your ready for a knock at your door from the F.B.I
@@jaylong4705 For investigation integrity. They often keep certain information back as a way to identify the actual culprit. If the release every detail then they would have the issue of people admitting to it and no way of confirming if all info is public domain. They release what they feel comfortable and anything they think may muddy the water and derail the investigation is kept to themselves. It will all come out eventually, hopefully when they have the person(s) responsible!
Libby is a straight-up OG Hero for her bravery in not only capturing his image and voice but being clever enough to ditch the phone without that creep realizing. Well done, Libby, I guarantee her actions saved lives. I bet he isht himself when his image was shown on TV. So brazen of him to be smiling in that bar in front of the police sketch. RIP brave Libby and Abby.
I live in Indiana. This was absolutely huge when it happened. I'm glad it's still being talked about a lot. The families deserve answers and justice. Those girls had their entire lives ahead of them.
Can't believe it's been almost 5 years and still no progress. I feel they have a suspect but just can't nail him down.
It was/is huge everywhere. I've never forgotten about this case. I check for updates at least once every couple months
@@AllOuttaBubblegum123 there been a whole lot of progress. A lot. Just sucks there hasn't been arrests
It was probably one of those train hopping dudes. He’s a million miles away.
This case went to national and international news sources . Was and is a story many people still follow. It has one of the largest followings, with a crazy amount of conspiracies and countless episodes from true crime web sleuths and podcasters have been dedicated to it. At this point there’s a reason they aren’t saying who did it.
What makes this even more tragic and sick, is that fact that one of the girls must have seen the other girl die first. I cannot begin to imagine the fear and pain they must have felt. My heart breaks for them and their families. Their lives will never be the same. I hope that evil monster gets caught soon. It's makes me so angry knowing he is still free. This is a really sad, but brilliantly done video. Very informative and respectful.
This horrible crime(s) and the following investigation leaves so many questions that something beyond the homicides is most definitely evident. I would say the suspect Is Not from the immediate area if not outside the state. Also, a person and or persons must know the identity of the suspect and that is where a major league problem lies.
Yeah I've been thinking the same thing....it's such a tragic story and hope they capture the murderer quick and sentence him to the only punishment he deserves DEATH PENALTY
My thoughts exactly. I'm sure that there was more than murder that happened before each died.
Yes 100% horrible thoughts
Worst thing is that the case will never be solved because things don't ad up at all
here's to 2022 being the year this case finally gets solved and these two angels get justice
Praying their killer is caught in 2022
@blue, I hope you're right! 🙏
@Dawn Smith, Amen! 🙏
I truly hope so x
This is a world where injustice prevails. We failed long ago and only hell awaits our doomed society
One common thing that I noticed in a lot of these teen murders is that young kids are in places they really shouldn't be alone at that age. Its not the parents fault because no one should ever hurt another person like this but I would never let my teenage daughter go walking in a place like that without me. Again they shouldn't have to worry about it in the first place but sadly it does happen.
That’s the thing, teens don’t listen, we were all teens once you should know as good as any, sad shit all around though
In small rural towns you have this mind set that things like this don't happen there. It's a false sense of security for sure but it exists. You never know what kind of crazy is running around.
I was thinking what parent wud let their kid Even Go anywhere near that bridge.?? That’s a tragedy waiting to happen too. Dilapidated And NO Side t

@@dianebarke4475I had good folks ..I went by myself down a river trail in my teens all the time...id float from bridge to bridge in an inner tube picked up by my folks after being dropped off by them ...I don't think it's the parents fault for letting them go together...I'm sure they beat themselves up enough without that being implied ..my folks were very good folks just like them
My wife and I thought this piece of crap would be taken down in less than a week because of the evidence these brave girls were smart enough to collect. It's so frustrating to know this monster is out there. We really hope 2022 is the year Liberty and Abigail get justice. Rest in Peace, little angels.

Perfectly said.

@@NZCLUB_reals if he had time to kill them he had time to find the phone something just dont add up there
@@freebird1ification I agree. Something is extremely weird.
@@freebird1ification well I must say I thought about that when I first heard this story earlier this year and the conclusion I came to considering the girls passion in criminal investigation would give her a default mind of a sleuth and I can see her cleverly hiding the phone even keeping it concealed by stealthily dumping it without being seen by the perp in order to leave a last clue so its also possible (as it appears to me) she knew she might not make it out alive after this.. So if this theory is true ,then that eliminates any possible hint of a conspiracy if that's what you're implying? But it doesn't hurt to question everything so I encourage your suspicions 👍
This case really chilled me as I was followed home as a sophomore in high school. I was so scared and thankfully when I told the man who was following me my dad was calling (he wasn’t I was frantically calling him) he got spooked and left me alone. I cried for hours and I’ll never forget it. I couldn’t imagine how these girls felt wishing their parents were there…
@Wolv3n I am glad you made out ok! I had a similar experience. Yikes!

I’m so sorry you went through that. Glad you had the presence of mind to do what you did! I can’t anymore with how unsafe it is for women and children out in the world!
Back in 1970, when I was 7 years old, i was late for school. I was/am an asthmatic. I could not run.
I was rushing to school and a fella pulled over and offered me a ride to school. I said no. He drove around the block a few times. Once pulling up on me again after the first offer, telling me how I would get in trouble for being late.
Again I said no, I could walk.
Again, about a block from school, he pulled up on me again, telling me the school sent him to get me.
This was in Atascadero, Calif.
I have on occasion wondered how this situation would've worked out, had I got in his car.
Amazing the amount of bullets dodged are a part of our daily lives?
RIP these little girls.
Fuck manners, full stop fuck manners, if you feel uncomfortable make noise, call them out, scream, freak out, make a scene.
It is sad that Evil comes in all forms… In February 2022 Indiana State police said they knew who the killer was but did not have enough evidence for an arrest. The Murder Sheet podcast (I forget the episode) obtained a copy of an FBI warrant which listed a lot of never before seen details about their horrible murders. I understand the video that was recorded by Liberty is actually a little longer but was withheld because it was deemed too traumatizing. As the mother of a 14 yr old daughter I can only imagine how those girls must of felt in their final moments and the heartbreak and sadness their families still deal with. My heart aches for their families.
I would never let children run lose in the woods this is a bad world with bad people in it you have to remember.
I was at Disney the other day. This girl who looked about 12 years old was sitting at a table and was kinda balancing the chairs on its back legs when it gave out and she started the fall back. The horror that she’d hit her head on the wall behind her prompted half my table of people to jump up instinctively. I think of this now, because for me personally I’d do anything I could to protect a child whether I know them or not. That instinctual desire to protect children comes so naturally. It did for most the people around us and I’d bet the rest who didn’t immediately react were just oblivious to what was happening. Thinking on this event and how we all reacted...it just shows how absolutely unnatural this man is for killing these two beautiful, innocent little girls. Every single fiber of my being is hardwired to protect kids, even those I don’t know or have any connection to. Yet this monster can do THAT?
This reminds me of when I was a kid swinging on a rope chain that separates between the lines at Disneyland when I fell backwards. I fell so fast and hit my head but still everyone around reached over to try to stop it
what a weird way to make this tragedy about yourself
@Susan Wojcicki Bolshevik from Poland yeah susan trolling is a way of gaining attention. He could well be attracted to children himself.
@@aaronp4689 trolling on people aroung child abduction and muder is a perverts trick. What do you want from this situation?

I had no clue and was so shocked. She had never even been on a date. And after that I had to monitor every move she made. Amazing what kids will do when your head us turned.
I was fairly gullible too.
Absolutely
Agreed! That’s what my sister did a few years back and my parents, me and my older brother didn’t know but her friends and her older brother (my little brother.)
They didn’t even tell us and we’re ashamed frankly she’s still doing this but with guys her age.
thanx for sharing lots of parents are to proud these days.
She'd be in her thirties now.Would you mind saying what happened with her?
Lived in Delphi most my life. This shook our community to the core. I was stopped by news team outside my home. Asking if I wanted to make a statement from a mothers perspective. I declined. Didn't sit right with me after all I still have my children. Prayers hes found soon. We need answers.

I hope all cases are solved......too many animals in plain sight in sheep clothing.
What their families are going through? What kind of parents drop off their kids in that area and leave them by themselves to have a photo shoot? I wouldn’t leave my dog there alone. Just crazy how these people dont care about their kids. There are so many sick and deprived people just roaming the streets in this country. Why people fail to understand that? Once in a while i see very small children (not older than 5 or 6) riding bicycles alone in the neighborhood. And if something happens to them, those parents will be crying and wondering how it happened. Sickening!!!!
I remember going on long walks in the woods with my best friend at that age.. Those poor, innocent girls, my heart is so broken for them 💔

This is one of the cases that haunt me the most. It’s the reason I do not allow myself to engage in ‘current’ true crime. I spent years hoping for updates on this case, wishing LE would release more information to the public so people in this town might be able to identify him. I want justice for these girls. I want answers.
Sometimes taking a break is healthy. Take care of yourself.
they keep it this way 4 a few reasons: protect the investigation so if they do catch the killer, details not released will help determine whether he is the suspect cuz only the killer will. able to co firm specific info. why hasnt the FBI providrd a suspect based on the killers method of killing

I've always believed they had been catfished or was being stalked on their social media. They had a day off which would have been a regular school day, they could've been anywhere in the trails but they went to the bridge. I think as soon as they saw him they were scared because he clearly wasn't who they was expecting, Libby grabbed that picture knowing they were in big trouble. This guy had it planned, knew exactly where they would be and trapped them on the bridge with no where to go. I hope they get justice for these girls soon! RIP Libby & Abby 🕯️🕊️🕯️
I said this when I first heard about this …I felt like the catfish told them to meet at the bridge …why on earth would they want to go there alone on their day off…i feel like this wasn’t their plan this was someone’s else’s plan . Once they met up with this guy the girl knew this was bad and started recording cause she knew the deal . And once they were asking where was the other person they thought they were meeting I think the catfish was like oh so and so is somewhere else I’ll bring you to him …which could be why he said guys down the hill… saying guys and the way he said it was like he knew them or try to act comfortable like a friend , then there’s Libby’s step grandfather mike… he looks like the sketch , he has the same body and there’s many pics of him posing the same way with his hands in his pocket . Also the cops are saying it’s someone in PLAIN SIGHT . they’re literally hinting the fact they know who it is . There’s interview with him that REALLY rings a lot of bells inside . The fact he was the last person to drop them off , the fact the cops are saying we know the person could be in this room…mike the step grandfather rings a lot of bells for me . And I swear in a interview with him he looks like he’s wearing the same shoes , snd he walks exactly the same as the man in the video and he sounds just like him
@@MrzBadaBing the girl's sister dropped them off at the park.
@@MrzBadaBing before I clicked on this video I had a vision of the killer. I was shocked when I seen the step father. Although my vision had more facial hair

Just to let the detective know Libby's grandma's name is Becky. Not Betty you might want to edit.
So true
He weaves so well. This story is like a wicker chair.
To add to the craziness of this case, earlier in the year police in the neighbouring town of Delphi arrested a sick creep who kidnapped a girl and was found alive, tied up in his basement. I thought for sure this would have been the perp but nothing has been said! If this guy isn’t the killer … how many sick, twisted messed up predators live in that small area?!!
Recently heard there may be up to 4,000 unidentified serial killers loose in the US. So like 80 per state if you spread ‘em out evenly. They said about 50 being active at any one time.

@@chazbarns1410 which law firm do you practice for ?
It's gut-wrenching to imagine their last moments, having to witness each other's torment, possibly being too terrified to make a run for it or maybe one girl didn't want to leave the other behind, and possibly wondering if help would arrive from a passerby. The way they were found is chilling too, suddenly panning over with a camera and spotting them in whatever state they were in must have been a huge shock. So sad. It's not just the bridge that is Stephen King-esque from "Stand by Me," this whole story of a mysterious child killer that no one can reliably remember seeing in town is also like the killer clown monster in "It." Life is worse than horror sometimes.
One didn’t want to leave the other 😢😭
Exactly what I just said to my S.O.
TEACH YOUR DAUGHTERS MENTAL STRENGTH!!!
Exactly! As my own mother god rest her used to say , it's the living you should fear not the dead , the real monsters walk amongst us
This case will always haunt me. I know so many true crime stories, well-known and less-known, but Abby and Libby's case is just horrific. And the lack of progress and weird police strategy is so frustrating.
Chances are the weird police strategy isn't 'weird.' If they got the Feds involved, every press conference, sketch, and release they made is some well calculated action. There may be misdirection involved as well, especially with them saying that 'The killer is probably in this room.'
This is why you can never let pedos, rapists and murderers out of jail. They will ALWAYS reoffend. This guy has done more before this, and since this crime. Leaving "signatures" and posing bodies doesn't happen on a whim. This is a guy that gets a high off the crimes and the chase.
Since they wanna release psychos all the time they should castrate them, and put tracking devices inside them...Then they can see who was there that day. The only other option is the killer is a cop or connected to some form of law enforcement. Calling in bomb threats pulls all resources to another location. He's also fooled cops for a long time.
Chemical castration and a GPS surgically implanted. Im all for that. Great suggestion 👌
what about people falsely convicted?
@@danielmalone4446 Yes. Only if the perpetrator is 100% guilty without any doubt whatsoever a GPS is a reasonable idea.
@@AllOuttaBubblegum123 If they didn't believe the convicted to be guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, then they wouldn't have been convicted in the first place. That's how the legal system works, so if we enacted this system, then falsely accused would be chemically castrated as well, because we wouldn't know they were falsely convicted.
@@jesussaves6625 not talking about falsely accused. The man who kidnapped Jaycee Dugard had kidnapped and raped before. He was paroled and let out and then kidnapped her on her way to her school bus stop.
I'll always respect them for getting video and voice on their phone before their murders.
But, what have the police done with it? They need to publish the rest of it. It's been years. What can it hurt now. Someone may still recognise his voice when he talks naturally.
To think what these young ladies had to endure breaks my heart. They were so smart to take the video and keep recording. I'm so sorry to these young ladies and their families that with the clues these young ladies left, that no one can solve this case.
might have been better to do it less covertly and hope them being live stream might have put them off
The “Guys, down the hill” is the voice of someone older than teenage years… that always made me cringe when they keep going younger and younger with the age of the suspect.
Yeah, to me he never sounded like a young man...
i agree jay...at least he is 40 or older...the voice sounds old...and even the video clip.. short as it is thats no way a young guy walks..
@@allandoyle3555 Remember his walk is going to be altered by the fact he's stepping on railway ties. His voice sounds old but that might be because it's being recorded by a phone inside a jacket pocket and it's just muffled or distorted.
Nope, i've listened to Fb video clips of a couple of the young guys who've been under suspicion and questioned, and they sound very much like bridge guy.
@@allandoyle3555 yes, 40 & older for sure. What an evil
POS!
As a person who is really invested in this case, I havent yet seen a better cover of this than yours. Also both your narration and story telling is impecable and your videos are getting better every day. Love from Turkey 💜
With the slim chance that the Delphi murderer had a phone of his own with him at the time of the murders, couldn't it be possible to get a list of all the phone numbers that pinged the cell phone towers in the area during that specific time frame and go from there? Please find this killer so we can get the family some justice and prevent him from doing this to someone else's family.
Hopefully Police did tower dump
That would require the police to actually care and not be complete morons like in this case.
I have actually been wondering lately why tower pings have not been used in a lot of the riot cases, etc. All of these people using their phones, taking pics, and tower pings could put them at the scene of crimes, and a lot of the pics would have gps locations embedded in them. Things in America are not adding up anymore.
@@lavenderblue489 What if someone just happens to be in that area when the riot breaks out. They would also likely run into it being a civil rights violation because of privacy laws.
Great idea!!
What should have happened was that every cctv footage from every business within 20 miles for the whole week before should have been exhaustively studied for anybody that had the same outfit on and who he may have been.
Exactly
Small town alot of those businesses probably don't have cameras. And the ones that do I'm sure they went through them.
@@justinpitman5685 ring and wyze videos too. There are cameras everywhere.
They don't even need to rely only on cctv. Doorbell cameras are subject to subpoena now too.

I felt so bad for their parents. Great show, thanks Chris.
And Libby’s sister, Kelsie. 😢 She changed her major to a forensic investigation-type major because of her sister.
Retracing this case, it pains me more than anything, the loss of life. Why, why, why? Two girls having their day, going on about their day in all of its innocence, minding their business and a monster has to come and destroy that, take it all away, with this terrible compulsion to end a life. I cannot imagine the fear, the terror they must have felt, knowing they were never coming home.
My soul hurts for these girls and their family. And for all who suffer this same fate.
My thoughts exactly
Sick pieces of trash gratifying themselves. Families avenging them should not be punished maybe even permitted
Its just another instance of the sagacity of following your instincts, that natural intuition is the most efficacious self defense you have, more so than a weapon.
Its infuriating that girls and even adult woman are still taught to be nice regardless, put the proprietary first and your fears second.
Even if you are going to act on that primal fear telling you you're in danger, do so in a subtle way.
" don't raise the alarm just on the account of your feelings , don't be hysterical"
The same way we have failed young men in this country by leaving them in an eternal adolescence.
no path to manhood, until they loose hope, any sense of self & then , of course, get angry & either start shooting, or internalize and start useing.
We haven't taught our girls anything beyond the Victorian era,
" be nice, be polite to your killer, if you raise the alarm it will be dissmised, you're too emotional "
These young girls where brave to get video footage, I just wish our culture had told them, " if you're fearful enough you feel the need to document evidence, then you need to call for help immediately "
However, the fear of appearing foolish, easily frightened, alarming parents, or stepping out of line, causing trouble.
There is so much ingrained in them to keep the peace at all costs.
though we don't really say it aloud anymore, because we pretend we dont beleive it anymore.
But we still hold hands with the classic long standing idea;
" woman can become hysterical over any stimulus, don't over excite them, don't give them math , don't expect logical behaviour, woman lead with emotions ".....
Of course we can't speak so plainly, its frowned upon, and can be less efficient.
Unfortunately there is no need to spell it out, television , movies, they drill home the same message, in a soothing , not too obvious, subconscious, propagandist way.......
Children should not be on social media ever. Its too dangerous. It turns their innocence upside down. Sad but true.
@@willadafanderson6714 You are absolutely right about this! 💯💯💯 A thousand percent correct. Couldn't agree more. No matter how strong we try to raise our girls, we're fighting against so damn much bullshit that is burned into their minds at every single turn by society.
I have been glued to the t.v watching and listening to you talk about this horrifically stomach turning horror story!!! My heart goes out to these two girls, their families and all who care for them. The townsfolk who must have been terrified to even take a walk in their own hometown. Absolutely heart wrenching. May this monster feel God's wrath yesterday and for every day until he is put down.
"their bodies lying next to each other, best friends forever." I'm not even a minute in and i'm crying. What a haunting yet beautiful sentiment.
May Abigail and Liberty find eternal peace and may they rest knowing that they had not only their families who loved them dearly, but they always had each other.
I know it's much too early, so feel free to roam and see the world, but rest soon girls, there's a better place waiting.
Thank you from Indy for such a compelling retelling of the Delphi girls and their unidentified killer, known only as Bridge Guy. Their case long unsolved, Abigail and Liberty deserved a fact based narrative professionally delivered, like this one. It can only help.
I hope justice is found for the girls, their families, and our communities here 💕
I’m curious to know how he would have reacted if the girls announced they were live and viewed by many people like hey sir, you’re online say hi to all the subscribers! Or pretended she was facetiming a family member or friend and announced his presence for him to hear. I wonder if this would have deterred anything or just made him irate and act sooner. I hope these beautiful girls get their justice soon
That's what i do whenever I'm on a trail alone. I pretend I'm talking to someone on my headset the whole time, describing people passing by...
wouldve taken cellphone frm them
@@Talletc get away from.the trail especially ALONE
That’s a good idea. May have stopped anything more from happening. A sad story. Fact though. Not fiction.
I do this when i get in taxis. I also make a point of photographing the plates and sending to friends. I make sure the driver knows. A good guy will understand. A bad guy might not try anything.
Good grief the mugshots of these terrible humans 😱😔, grim. This was so well explained, thanks. 👍🏻
I know. They all look like absolute scumbags
I've always wondered what he was doing that alarmed Libby enough that she felt the need to surreptitiously record him.
a stranger in the woods getting close to you would set off all kinds of alarms even when it's completely harmless. that out-of-shape old man knows what he was doing was highly suspicious
Probably just that they felt unsafe and felt that he could have been intentionally following them (as opposed to just walking in the same direction on the trail.)
Often when we get a bad feeling from someone, or a situation it's because we are subconsciously picking up on body language. It can be hard to put your finger on but it's totally instinctual. I think it's fair to say that he might have just seemed "off" to the girls and they trusted their gut reaction.
@@360.Tapestry He wasn't an old man, pretty sure the weapons around him underneath his coat were why he maybe appeared older and out of shape. He is likely 22 to 30 years old and from a town surrounding that small town. Likely rented a car to do the crime and likely immediately took them somewhere else, brought them back at some point, I think.
Kids have great intuition it's just depends on which kid acts on those intuitions and who doesn't. When I was a kid I would get this sinking feeling in my chest and my stomach would start to hurt like I had to do a number 2.........that's when I knew I had to get tf out of there. It saved me many times. People have to learn to listen to and trust their bodies. Your body has sensors that can sense danger before your mind even processes it. Like animals have we humans possess the same thing except we don't listen to ours as much. We're always saying "Eh I'm just being paranoid again."
@@marleyex2695 true, there are many things always at work here to dull our instincts and keep them that way, things like toxins in our water and soil,air, propaganda on all forms of media, lies and secrets kept to keep people confused all the time, man made drugs and chemicals etc. so that means we have to focus more on what our bodies and brains, our spiritual side too tells us with many more senses at play than the top 5 or 6.
I hope this is taking so long because police want to be 1000% sure they have enough evidence to prove guilt. These young ladies deserve justice, their families deserve answers. Thanks Chris and Amy.
I hope so too!! Too many times innocent people are arrested when the police want to arrest someone so bad & being pressured to find a suspect so they just pick up the first person who they think will be convincing enough... literally leaving a murderer still out there free! That’s not justice. I hope they’re trying to be sure too!
typically the police try to keep the info they have super close so the perp isn’t aware he’s being tailed. the media often ruins that by exposing every bit of info they can get their hands on.
This isnt how it works unfortunately. Time is not your friend. The likelyhood of them ever solving this case is relatively slim, and the idea that they have been silently building a case despite being all over the place publicly is just not realistic. Like with all case, they have burned through all the leads likely to produce a result and are now just scraping the bottom of the barrel.
My nieces played softball with libby and went to school with the girls. Someone has to know who did this. It's been 5 years these girls and their families need and deserve justice
I would advise anyone that if they feel that someone is following them, or if you get that gut feeling, just whip out your phone and record and point it at the person. Don't feel like you have to record on the DL. Make them aware that you know they are there. Then send the video to a couple of friends. This monster has done this before because he would not have been so brazen to just follow them.
So they could possibly be attacked quicker? Why not use that phone to call 911? Even if there is no time on the phone you can still call 911. On every phone.
I agree. That's why it's recommended when walking alone at night to make eye contact with anyone you encounter. Don't look at the ground or away. Let them know you're aware of their presence and (now with camera phones) that you have their image. It shows confidence and that you aren't going to lie down and be their victim.
Libby and Abby did everything they should have that day. Especially impressive for a 13 and 14 year old since many grown women wouldn't have thought to do that.
@@Shayna11NM odd but I watched a Madonna interview where she said she looked everyone in the eye on the street when she was young and living in NYC. It stuck with me and I always do that.

Good advice, IF you've gauged the situation and deem it safe for you at that time. Otherwise, do as much communication and documentation in secret as you possibly can!!!
At this point, if my gut is telling me "dudes following me" idc if he's just trying to catch up to ask me about my cars extended warranty or what he wants I'm calling 911 as a precaution!!

Our small town isn't the same, You can't trust anyone anymore. And the trail , not one female would want to be on now, it used to be a really great hiking spot. I'm way to scared to go now
I've always believed they were there to meet w someone they met online. It's a perfect place to go without risk of being seen or getting caught....typical teenaged girl thing to do.
The best Ive seen Crime Dive Delphi Double Murders uncanny close resemblance to 2 suspects ?.. not sure and theory makes sense Matt Sullivan with local good sources I can’t understand why no one has published this yet
...what
I agree they were catfished on the net and lured out to the bridge.
This catfish theory really makes sense. In interviews the parent indicate that the girls really wanted to go to the park and they were really trying hard to get a ride there….it looks relatively boring. These girls don’t look like avid hikers. I had a park near my home growing up, I was not that interested in going there at that age unless I was meeting up with friends to hang out or ride 4 wheelers.

Prayers for their family to have gone through this
Agreed! There’s so many reports that the audio just rolled in her pocket and it recorded quite a bit before the end. Apparently (unverified) the whole thing wasn’t released because he was pretending to be law enforcement and they didn’t want the public to focus on a cover up.
She got ‘that spidy sense’ going. Another thing I don’t get was Libby’s dad was there to pick them up when he passed a guy who told dad that ‘he thought they were under the bridge’, was he ever found?

The police seem to be holding back too much info. The more the public knows, the easier it may be for someone to think of who it could be. It has been almost 5 years. They really screwed up.
Yeah, the case is either sketchy or was compromised. The whole “We have more audio but it wouldn’t be useful to the public so we’re not going to release it” seems shady. That statement came when they released like one or two more words he said beyond the “down the hill” we all know.
@@nthomas87 Right, a few more words might give away his identity. This isn't Name that Tune, in this case he is the winner for getting away with murder. If he had a voice like Darth Vader, sure 4 words would be good enough. If he were my dad, I might need more than that.
@@nthomas87 It could just be that the rest of the audio is too disturbing and they didn't want the family to hear it. But at this point the pros of releasing the audio probably outweigh the cons
You have to be careful what's given out though. People will false confess and we want the guy who actually committed the crime. Also people may introduce info during questioning or tipping, that may lead to an arrest.
@@dhelix85 Absoutely but they kept a pic out of public eye of someone of interest, they maybe could have played more of his voice, they have kept a lot to themselves and obviously that route has not been working. I am hopeful that someone may come forward, this evil person needs to be taken off the streets.
Five years ago I was shocked about the murder. I lived in Delphi for a few years, my sons went to elementary school there, Delphi was a wonderful place to raise your kids. I would have never guessed that something like that could happen there. My prayers for the families.
I had just moved to Indiana months prior and remember how terrified and enraged everyone in the state was that they couldn’t find out who the killer was. Even now, people get angry when the girls are brought up because it’s still an open case
Yep
Rip
It's quickly becoming a cold case it seems. :(.
Part of me wonders why the killer wouldn't make off with any devices he found on Libby and Abbey and destroy them. Thanks for another insightful, engaging, and thorough video!
I find it interesting as well that he didn't demand their phones or take their phones after and dispose of them unless he thought the phones wouldn't connect him to them? But even then, it's still strange.. maybe he's a disorganized killer ...clearly he didn't know he was being filmed, kudo's to the girls ❤️
He may have thought the “Find My Phone” feature would be used (unaware the app wasn’t on the phone) regardless, it hasn’t led to him so far? It’s mind boggling that there’s a photo and voice recording of this guy, yet he’s still out there. Maybe 2022 will be the year those girls and their families will have justice!?
@@addiegraves3 hay...if he knew about the phones but didn't take them...maybe he's been in prison and doesn't know. I saw a show where this girl gets kidnapped from a parking lot, and the guy had been in prison and didn't know everything a phone can do and that's how she got away
Right, especially if the catfish theory is true.
@@proanimaluver6487 That's a good point I didn't think about that, hopefully this P.O.S is caught soon
Just heartbreaking. So many children and babies being murdered, I can’t help but wish for the maximum penalty of death when children are involved. These are the worse of the worse and the crimes only escalate.
Agree wholeheartedly.
This is a very upsetting case. I live 200 miles from where this took place, on the news every night for awhile. The way the man walked is very unique, he walks like he's in need of a hip replacement. also tapping his right foot to his left foot walking, it's almost like he had some kind of motor tic walking. This awful man has away that he walks, such a shame he hasn't been found yet
This must be one of the most puzzling cases ever. So many clues and pieces of evidence and still not able to pin down anyone??? Even if this guy is THE guy, still so many unclear details I can't wait to hear about. Thanks again Chris for yet another brilliant episode.
This is the most concise description I’ve heard about this case. I’ve got a lot of hope that with the changing forensic technology, the families will get the justice they need and rightly deserve. Rest In Peace girls.
I’m still shocked why they had us all looking for the wrong guy for 2 years. They should of put out both sketches at the same time.
That's the media. First but not accurate.
@@JoeLewis14 The media reported the information that the police gave them.
There...I fixed it for you.
@@JoeLewis14 lol what? The police gives the media the information
It was done on purpose to try to relax the killer. Long shot, yes, but very worthy tactic when ya don't have much to work with.
@@sfeigh No. Basic investing reporting that even an elementary school student could identify; the suspect was not "drawing a demon attacking a girl." It was Jack from a nightmare before Christmas. They reported it. They got it wrong. As usual, no research before reporting. Sound familiar, Scott?
Michigan girl here. Back in the 1970s, when I was 10, my 9-year-old friend and I were playing by a creek near our neighborhood. There was a freshwater spring on the other side of the creek with a parking area. A car pulled up with what looked like a guy and girl inside. At first they looked to be making out. But my friend got a weird feeling and started pushing me to go back up the trail to our neighborhood. We heard a car door open and I stopped and looked around. The "girl" pulled a wig off his head, revealing they were two guys. The other guy yelled "get 'em!" and we began to run. Thankfully, because there was a creek between us and them, we got away and safely home. Stupidly, we never told our parents because we were afraid of getting in trouble for playing where we weren't allowed to go. We never went there again. And also thankfully, nothing further like this happened to any other kids. I've often wondered who those guys were and what would had happened to us had my friend not had the sense that something was wrong.
From day one I've been feeling they were lured there by a 'catfish' type killer. Which is why they went to a secluded area, were dropped off, used snapchat, and also, in their precious innocence, did not go alone, whichever girl it was that was targeted.
It wasn't that secluded. A detective who used to the on the case said that this is a bit of a misconception. He said that there's a house which looks directly down upon where the crime scene was. It was a short walk from the town.
Please oh please let 2022 be the year that this case finally gets solved 🙏
Great video!
As a recovering drug addict with a DUI I can't ever imagine people thinking I may have murder anyone because of that :(
Anything this specific case has haunted me. For years. I'm pretty desensitized to this stuff but something about this case really hit me. It might be because I grew up out in the country. I remember seeing a lot of comments about how the family could let them go out and about alone but the truth is when you live out there things are a lot different than living in the city... My whole childhood was spent outdoors.
All of this story is heart breaking. I feel like Libby protected Abby. They protected each other. The way you explain that there's only one way on and off is so scary because that means once they were over and he was over there was nothing that could really be done.
I had never heard about the signatures left and it's just really scary to me I hope they find the killer soon
Everyone has gotten a DUI. The system is set up to screw the citizens. I got a DUI for literally SLEEPING in my car, even though by DEFINITION its DRIVING under influence. Recovering just means you've turned a corner in your life that some others can't understand. Neither of those things mean you are a bad person or accuseable. Just wanted to let you know you are good. Don't judge yourself harshly, the world, overpopulated with idiots, will judge you when they have no business doing so. Stay strong. YOU are the only thing that matters.
@@sev7nwest742 thank you for that. You don't know how much I needed it. I agree with you. I'm on probation now for 2 years even though my BAC was zero I'm having to pay thosands for a breathalyzer machine and do a whole lot of other stuff. And honestly it feels like it's set up to get you back in jail. It's always the same people in there. Poor people...addicts...mentally I'll. And it's all about money. Ugh. Really need this message 💕 the time I spent in there was horrible to say the least. I was violated so many times. Spent 14 days in a holding cell with way over the max amount of women to be in there. Only showered twice. That was the least horrible things that happened while I was there. I'm so scared I'm gonna end up back. but I've actually been doing really good. I hope your 2022 is amazing
Using a DUI to demonize someone is bullshit. People make mistakes/police are dirty/shit happens. That guy might be a pos but a DUI doesn't make someone a bad person.
Love your narrative, short and to the point, not boring like most 🤗💤
I never stop checking in on this case hoping that it will be solved... I'm around the same age as the girls would be and lived in a tiny town like them. It haunted me how easily this could have been my friend and I on one of our walks
How many things do you think we can "keep in the back of our mind" at once, Chris?!
Best comment🤣
Yeah , I'm actually taking notes
Omg me too!
Apparently more than YOU are capable of.....
The signatures and removal of clothes is eerie, indeed. I certainly hope they have the man/men who did this! Those girls and their families are due for justice!
There’s something occultism about this!
@@jomfomaw6208 I unfortunately agree. I'm 🙏 for their families.
The fact that they were probably posed in some significant way, i.e. the "signature" leads me to think this person is a serial killer. How many other girls has he killed?
LE has never said that clothing was removed.
@@justmarbles that doesn’t surprise me, there’s a lot they haven’t said.
I also live in Indiana. I'm worked temporarily in Delphi many years ago, and yes, everyone knows each other. Good people there. Every year, I pray they find this monster with definitive evidence and put him away for good. The families have suffered enough. Very frustrating.
This is the most baffling case I've ever heard of. I wonder if we will ever know the truth. I can't believe how organized this killer was. The investigator's need to release more information. He's done this before the girls and I'll bet he's done it since....creepy
We can’t stop thinking the same thing. Please for the love of macaroni, release more info! Let the public help! Maybe he talked about fantasies to someone? Maybe he’s done something similar somewhere else in a different jurisdiction? We live in a public information era. Use it, detectives!
What more information do you think they could have? Im only a couple minutes in so, maybe he’ll answer for me…. I’m not being sarcastic so please don’t take it that way.
@@barbarageorge7848 The detectives have a full recording I think.
How organized may depend upon this is ‘comfort zone’ for hunting for the killer. This can’t be his first murder and doubt it was the last either.
@@jennifercarr9111 of what’s on the phone?! Wow!! I was understanding that the only thing recorded was ‘down the hill’!! With the different inflections people use in their speech, I absolutely agree that more of the recording needs released, if there is, indeed more!!
Thank you Jennifer!
Keegan was my neighbor growing up. I graduated with his older brother and hung out with his older sister in high school. He was roughly 6 years younger than me. He was an extremely spoiled kid growing up and always had a bad attitude. I never would have guessed he would grow up to be this person but at the same time he’s always been kind of narcissistic. Being disgustingly spoiled by both his parents definitely contributed negatively to his overall personality. I’m not sure if his mom moved away from our home town but it is only roughly 20 mins from the bridge itself.
Thank you Chris! I didn’t realize the park was that size. I love y’all research and commentary. Hi Amy✌️
Hi from both of us! I know, it's quite an area to consider.
Have a great night!✨🥂
@@TrueCrimeRecaps I will, Happy New Year!🍾🎊🥂
But the actually crime scene area is actually quite small. I can't understand why the girls were not found on the 13th. All those people and a drone. Something doesn't add up
The movie called Megan is missing traumatized me and it was a fictional movie about 2 best friends that are murdered. Only evil can do this.
honestly after watching this i'm going to teach my nieces that if they're isolated alone in a setting like that and they encounter a stranger who strikes fear in them to stick their ph in the stranger's face, welcome them to facebook live and ask them if they have a daily message for all the viewers. what's there to lose at that point. poor girls did the best they could. they should be able to find that mystery man by that footage. you'd be surprised at the level of protection people from certain families receive and those who are connected. lots of "unsolved" cases lingering over that
yeah. police protect certain scumbags because they cooperate and get bigger fish busted. im sure that is whats happening. hes going to get a lot of time and they gonna break that fat boy in prison. Indiana has the absolute worst, most disgusting crimes, by far, of anywhere in the USA. i wonder why?
Probably be wiser to teach them to pay attention to their surroundings and get off social media while outside..
Probably better to not leave them in the forest by themselves in the first place
NEVER agitate a potential killer. If he hadn't planned on murdering the girls, putting a phone in his face and asking him to speak to FB live could certainly enrage the stranger enough to kill them and destroy the phone.
I would teach them not to go into secluded areas without someone that can protect them.
Good to see you too Chris, and thank you for your latest True Crime Recap. Much appreciated.
...And we much appreciate you! Glad you like the story. Have a great night and a happy new year!
@@TrueCrimeRecaps
Thank you and likewise Chris/Amy.
Man that was so well explained.
I’m sure there is a ton of work put into these but it seems so effortless.
Great job.
This is the most indepth breakdown I've seen. Your clarity and intonation is perfect 👌🏼
It's really sad to think that our children aren't safe anywhere these days.
wdym these days
@@no-hk9pt yeah good point. Kidnapping and murdering of unattended children is unfortunately nothing new
“these days”
lol the 70s, 80s and 90s were all worse insofar as serial killings go.
They never ever have been. Ever.
Integration of society.Just saying
The fact that someone can have that much CP and not be immediately locked up for decades (at least) is insane to me.
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
agreed, it’s so sick
He likely knows the killer whether he knows it or not, and there are all sorts of things about his criminal behavior that need to be established. Any possibility of getting this goes out the window when he becomes an active participant in the legal system. They were likely hoping he would slip up or reveal something. It is also entirely possible that if they could establish he wasnt just committing crimes over the computer, they would likely pin it on him since they are desperate and can connect him to the girls.
Like you said Chris, you'd sorta think after all this time SOMEONE would've maybe recognized this evil dude either by the images released or the audio...can't help but feel like possibly someone or several people are in the know of what went down but sadly won't talk. I'm not done with the vid yet but I know lately that Anthony shots guy has been talked about a lot in relation to this case and is definitely pretty odd and the timing seems to be right. Regardless, it's so damn sad what those girls went through and how much life they had left 💔💔 anywho, I freakin love yalls channel and thanks so much for all the work you both put in!! 😊😊 it's awesome seeing a couple work together so well the way you two do and I love yalls delivery and how your facts always seem to be spot on 🙂
Shelby, can’t tell you how much we appreciate you. And completely agree with the way your brain is working. Police even said people will be surprised who this is. And that they may have already spoken to him. Maybe they do know who it is, like you said, but they don’t have the evidence to bring him in yet. Dammit this needs to be solved! 🤬
Yes they know him.
Hey fellow Moon! 🌛 Not sure if that's your real last name but it is mine, until I hyphenated it lol.
I agree
When this happened I had just moved to Indiana, I lived very close to Delphi, everyone at school was talking about it. I just couldn’t believe this would happen in such a small town…
This young girl followed her gut instinct and turned on the video. They deserve justice and the creep that did this deserves every bad thing that can happen in prison. I hope an arrest is coming soon, their families and community deserve closure.
Butt stuff. Mean style.
Thank you so much for explaining the facts clearly and quickly without having to put your makeup on while you do it.
Thank goodness for the update! I'm glad you 2 are covering it because I know I will learn something new!!!!
Adore you!! (We certainly learned a lot!) if you’ve got the time, go down the rabbit hole online. Lots of VERYYY interesting theories you won’t be able to stop thinking about.
@@TrueCrimeRecaps I agree been in a lot on this case for sure!
I always wondered how he caught up with the girls. They noticed him prior to being forced down the hill. And their intuition was so spot on that Libby recorded him. I’m positive they didn’t just stand there, waiting for him to catch up. I just wonder how it occurred.
This case is heartbreaking. I’m so glad their killer has finally been arrested, awaiting trial.
RIP Abby and Libby
This is a case I pray will be solved very soon. I think he is connected and knows what happened RIP Abby & Libby. Gone but not forgotten. Season's Greetings from South Africa.
Great to have you here Sonja! THIS is the year it’s solved! 🤞🏻
I just wanted to say thank you Chris & Amy for continually bringing attention to this case. Libby & Abby deserve justice!! This monster deserves to pay!! I live in KY, I remember when this happened. I've followed it closely. My oldest daughter was about the same age as the girls, it hit home. It's past time for these baby girls get justice & their family, friends & community get some type of peace.
EXCELLENT recap! When Chris said "Best Friends Forever" I got a chill from head to toe!
Really sad and terrified for the children of our nation. What's next in this case? Hopefully some solid evidence as to who did this heinous crime!
Thank you Leisa! Not sure what comes next, but it feels like there's a lot of leads. Hopefully they can get some closuer soon. Have a great New Year!
I’m binge watching all videos on this channel. I freaking love it. Can’t believe UA-cam only recommended this to me today.
Welcome aboard!
Brilliantly told Chris. A convoluted story, with so many questions, all still unanswered. I pray that 2022 brings close and peace to these two families, that he is arrested and convicted and finds his huge cell mate 'Bubba' is very attracted to him and wants to show it.! I wish you both an extremely happy new year Chris and Amy. ❤🌹xx
This is by far the best analysis/recap of the case I've seen, so much I learned about the case. Thank you for this. Considering it was on Valentine's Day, catfishing seems likely. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the employee at the plant who made the bomb threat a few days later. God I hope for justice for those two little girls.
I remember when I first heard this story & it's just as appalling, heartbreaking, & maddening. I'm so glad she knew he was up something, POS!! RIP Angel's 🕊🕊🍂🌷🌻💕
They need to catch this monster. Prayers for the families! God bless 👑🙏🏼🕊🌾🌾
I saw when you posted this, but the news was leaving out a TON of these details, so I had to come back for a refresher.
There’s no way the voice on Libby’s recording belongs to someone the age of the second composite release, that’s a middle aged a voice
I actually believe that its her grandfather. He's turned into the spokesman for reasons beyond a grieving relative.
I have suspension that the FBI has got an eye on him.
I agree. They probably changed the sketch to see if he'd slip up.
He sounds like an older man for sure and looks older as well prob 40-50 ish
@@grr3467 Around the age of Mike Patty, Liberty's grandfather.
Why would they record Libby's grandfather? Surely, they would not do that if they knew him or if they recorded him and he was her grandfather, surely that would have been obvious in how they spoke to him. Let's not accuse an innocent man of murdering his granddaughter and friend.
It's hard to tell as he's kind of whispering.
Top notch again! I appreciate how you clearly state what is fact vs. what is speculation. You don't blend the two or claim to know anything that isn't backed up. I appreciate your credibility and it's what keeps me subscribed. I have been hoping they catch this total waste of existence since I heard about it.
I think it could be someone who hunts. His clothing was thick like layered. The underneath clothes look like they could be camo, he has a dear kit. He carried a knife and (potentially a gun) and despite his weight which I would guess is closer to 230-250 he came quickly across the bridge. Which says it’s someone who’s used to the area, desensitized to blood and violence and sometimes hunters pose their trophy’s by having them fluffed or whatever. Also no one would pay attention to blood on a hunter. But he’s probably long gone by now (out of state) but someone knows him and that’s the sad part 💔
Exactly! There is no way somebody close to this guy just has to recognize him by the video then nailed it in with the voice clip even if it's just a neighbor but somebody must know something!
I'm really surprised someone was able to get away during broad daylight. I'm not sure how often these things happen during the early afternoon, but that part stood out to me.
People stay out of jail when they have connections. He knew someone, somewhere connected in local politics. He was the son, grandson, or nephew of the coroner, the judge, a current or prior commission member, maybe a sheriff or mayor. If you started poking around local forms you will probably figure it out, local people feel some kind of way about these 'untouchables' and will talk.
A killer waiting randomly in the middle of nowhere with a weapon for a couple of kids & not expecting to be caught or interrupted doing this crime. I can't get past that
I can't think this was random. It's way too perfect. I bet that sick fuck lured them there somehow. Super isolated out there from the description. Poor girls were probably giving him every bit of info he needed to set them up and they didn't even realize it.
@@FBobby Yeah I can't help but think there's some key point we're missing that could solve this whole case. Hope he's not a serial killer seeing he's so organised
It does happen though, look at the case of Israel Keyes, he hid kill kits around the country and would wait in woods or some remote area for someone to randomly come along. Unlike a lot of serial killers he didn’t have a specific victim type, he simply targeted anyone who was vulnerable when he had the urge. What did him in was kidnapping and murdering a girl in his hometown and using her debit card to withdrawl ransom money, normally he would travel out of state to one of his hidden kits then find a victim but his urges simply became too strong and he got sloppy. One of the most terrifying killers that’s not well known who also robbed banks, arson, literally everything under the sun. Ted Bundy was his idol so that should give good insight into the type of person he was.
@@irstat1c383 I never thought serial killing could become a full time occupation. Terrible to think it's true
This case drives me nuts. I so want justice for these two girls (as a mum myself I'd be devastated if I had nothing).
