This is 1 of a couple cases that have haunted me hopefully we get answers finally
This case even rocked us in South Africa...We pray for your families Abby and Libby...Rest in Peace angels...May Justice prevail
I'm also watching from South Africa. We finally have justice for Abbey and Libby 🙏🏽 i think the press conference will be at 4pm our time
@@timonza Is that today at 4pm
Greetings South Africa from Indiana!
May God bless all you you there. Please don't think poorly of Hoosiers by this. Indiana is a beautiful place to live.
So hard to believe it’s been 5 years. Those poor families have went through so much with the loss of those sweet girls. And he walked free for the past 5 years enjoying life and his own family. So upsetting
I kind of adopted these girls over the years. I remember being their age and hanging out with my friends. I'm reminded of how naive and innocent we are at that age. This is especially BRUTAL. I'm so glad to see movement,but at the same time CAUTIOUS
I agree with your statement completely. How terrible that pedophiles run rampant and now lure kids with electronic means. No place seems safe. We must rally together through thought and prayers 🙏Love ❤ &Hope that we can change the world 🌎 protecting our kids and kids are kids until they are of legal age. When we see something not right with older individuals with younger kids and the relationship seems strange 🤔 we all need to get involved and call the correct authorities that need the info. Wherever- Whenever Justice for all these kids everywhere suffering & those no longer with us. May The Lords Protection be Far and wide East and West as Justice Reigns Down May all in Violation of harmful acts against our children be brought out into the light and swiftly delt with. In Jesus Name we Pray Amen 🙏 & God Bless
@@Haystack11 Amen!🥰😇🥰😇
adopted? Weird.
that's how I felt about Gabriel Fernandez. I adopted him. he lives on my refrigerator with my son's photographs and if I could he would be my boy.
@@edwinacaparelli9911 🥰😇🥰😇
To Abby and Libby's families-many of our hearts have stayed with you along this brutal journey. I pray for you all the time, and I am sure I am not alone. These babies were taken out of this world way too soon...and I pray with all my heart that this is almost over for you all. God bless you and I will never forget your sweet girls...not ever.
Today is the day💜 Rest in Peace Libbey and Abby.
Yet, you care enough to click on the video link watched the video then you leave a comment.
@Asain Racist speaks truth Shut up if you have nothing useful to add. You don't gotta comment if you don't care.
Monday kind of feels like a year away at this point! I am so so thankful that there will finally be answers. This case has haunted me from day one, and I have checked the news every single day since day one!
Yeah, why are they waiting till Monday?!
@@lds251 Probably so they can prepare? I’m guessing they made an announcement of an arrest immediately, now they gotta get everything together.
we cant wait till monday !
The guy arrested had his bond set at $20 million....it's definitely the bridge guy...never thought I'd see this case solved...
I think his eyes actually look very similar to the younger sketch with the kind of hooded eyelids and full face too..looked on the shorter side like this guy but I hope they have irrefutable proof
Yeah, that really confirmed it for me too.
Def not $20 million.
It's a no bail now
@@meggie11102 It was. It was stated in documents.
Prayers to Abby's Mom and her family, prayers for Libby's Mom and Dad, Her grandparents, and Kelsey! May they all be filled with strength from above as they are facing these past few days along with those coming up!
Their story has always stuck with me over the years 😥 My Sister was also murdered in 2006 and my maiden name is Libby. 🙏 the family finally gets the answer they deserve and have been waiting for.
😢
:( I am sorry. Just awful.
God bless you 🙏 for your loss. My precious little niece was kidnapped and rape by 5 black bastards. They wete going to drown her and one of them spoke up and said no we're in enough trouble. Death penalty for all savage rapist and murderers!!! No sympathy from me.
I'm so sorry. Was person caught?
k bye
Not only am I beyond happy for the families, but these two young girls and their souls as well. They can finally find peace now.
Scripture says, To be away from the body is to be with the Lord. They both were at peace and with Jesus the moment they took their last breathes. 🙏🕊🙏
@@DannaK247 Amen.☁️🎺👼💒🙏🌹
The families have benefited to the tune of $500k for the "foundation" the run. Look up Jack Doctoroff videos on utube.
I resent the fact that Richard Allen was living comfortably for 5 yrs after 2 teenage girls were brutally murdered. I need for him to suffer the indignities of prison for a long time.
Has he been convicted?
If my wife of 32 years saw a grainy video of me walking, she would know it was me immediately. Not buying that the wife was clueless.
Agree 💯. She definitely knew.
@@carsonatwood81 you have zero proof to back that up. Stop it.
@@wintergirll people are allowed to have opinions
You can’t tell me his wife didn’t recognise him. I would know my husband just by his smell, let alone clothes, walk, and voice. I’d KNOW it was my husband! His wife needs heavy questions thrown at her by police!
💯💯💯 I was thinking the same thing!
Or anyone in Delphi! He was right there this whole time. So strange.
Facts
I've been thinking that his close associates HAVE to know.....I'd know my hubby's every step....
Maybe she was afraid of him, there certainly was reason to be.
This seems like a town with many secrets and people not talking!!
A lot of small towns like that
I’m really praying this is the guy. What worries me is the phrase “ arrested in connection with “. However, looking at this creeps pictures, it gives me a terribly sick feeling inside. I don’t know what’s true or not true, I read LE dug up his yard. I’m hoping he wasn’t just hiding evidence from the crime scene, but is the evil monster- it’s time for his end to come!!! To be honest, I think we’ll feel “disappointed “ with the press conference, but I know LE has been and is being very careful.
the guys name is Richard Allen,, he's in custody as of Friday afternoon. arrested at his work place CVS in delphi, Indiana..
Love and prayers to Libby's and Abby's mom's
Grandparents too and sister for sure..they were all so close
So 2 days ago there is a falling out over this case with a deputy filing a lawsuit against the Sheriff Tobias. 2 days later they make an arrest? That’s a little strange.
What do you mean by " a falling out"?
I'm not convinced, either.
Waiting for a couple good channels I know to do videos.
There are a few completely suss delphi residents...we'll see.
I was glad to hear the investigation continues.
This is going to be a long, hard road for justice for these two young girls. Praying for the families. 🙏♥️
The families are suspicious. Look up "something to say" videos on questions of the family.
I *KNEW* That MoFo Had to Be a "Local"!
I Could Tell Because How That MoFo *WALKED,* That He Couldn't Have Walked Too Far(WithOut Pain), With a Stride Like That!
(I Wish Those Girls Had Noticed His "Stride", & *RAN* From Him *DOWN* "TheHill"! He'd Have Most Likely Busted His Ass Chasing After Them! 🤔)
What took them so long? What if they're wrong? They've messed up so much for so long on this case and the last time authorities said something they told us "we're going to get them" THEM in plural
And you could have solved this an hour after it happened? Blame the SOB that committed this crime, investigation means having proof and not giving the criminal the upper hand...if you think it's that easy then become a detective
Hopefully now the families can get some closure. So sad.
It's so confusing knowing the video was much longer perhaps even recording their murder. I hope this man is the perpetrator and is held accountable. If ever the reason to keep the death penalty the individual responsible for these murders is it!
This is the biggest news, and I couldn't be more pleased, I literally prayed for this 4 days ago during my morning prayers and for 5 plus years, I said God please this is just not fair like these girls tried their darndest to leave us with answers. And don't tell me that wife didn't see his image on the news for almost 6 years straight. She knew. My regards and condolences always for the families of Abby and Libby, and to the girls rest easy sweet babies, your killer is caught!! Thank you Lord.
By the way to any potential jurors this case screams death penalty. Please don't fail us again like they did in Florida with the parkland shooter
Isn't it enough that someone has been arrested? Why do people automatically try to implicate his wife? There are a dozen good reasons that she didn't make the connection. (For example, if there are TWO or more perps, Richard Allen might not BE Bridge Guy.) I swear, it's as though some people can't be happy until they find some WOMAN to blame!
No you didn’t. There’s NO WAY you prayed for this EXACT scenario 4 days ago. If that’s true may I have the lotto numbers for tonight?
@@pricklypear7516 agreed it’s a joke
Ken Mains!! I knew you'd be a source of comfort! You are the best! I support you 💯 %
I wonder if Sheriff Leazenby went to CVS a lot and that's how he knew Richard Allen's voice
Richard Allen’s wife knew it was him there’s picture of Richard wearing that blue jacket already circulating
These Angels are heroes.They are the reason he got caught and only God knows how many lives have been saved because they were smart enough to snap his picture & record his voice.
May you both finally get the rest that you deserve🙏🏽
We appreciate your work, Barbara. See you Monday. Tbh, sounds like not much more will be told on Monday than we've already heard this weekend, but that would be normal for this sheriff's office.
Hopefully this will lead to peace for the girls families and severe punishment for the perpetrator
Those families will never have peace.
@@Westindiangyal1111 if they know Jesus they will
Even though I think we all want to know more information, I am glad they are tight lipped about this case. RIP girls ❤
What broke my heart when I first saw this awful crime on the news was that the victims were still little kids just starting their teenage years. They were young, sheltered. small town Indiana girls just starting to experiment with makeup and style. So innocent! Only a truly evil person would have selected them for his victims!
The wife must have known, must have as that video was clear of someone to be identified by an acquaintance.
This POS needs to talk. You’ve had nearly 6 years more than you deserve. Those darling girls deserve justice of the highest order.
Fly high sweet angels 👼
How many times have these families looked at this man. How many times have they been in cvs. Oh my gosh is this the only Pharmacy in town. Has he been filling the family's prescriptions. This man is so sick. I wish him to be treated the same way that he treated the girls!
Hmmm- makes me wonder if he gave the girls some kind of drug from the pharmacy.
Don’t think Susan Hendricks should be smiling excitedly when asking about new info on the murder of two children.
It's difficult watching these videos and pictures of these Babies, smiling and laughing, knowing what we now know. Hopefully, justice is right around the corner, for the Girls and their Families.
Monday's press conference will be very interesting! I wonder if there is more people involved in the brutal killings?
Sounds like there is more. Might be why he's in protective custody. We don't want another Epstein incident.
I’m wondering the same. DC stated that the investigation is far from over, which leads one to wonder if there are more involved in this crime.
Wonder if they managed to get his DNA and it matched the hairs as the crime scene or something they found at his house when they served the search warrant 2 weeks ago confirmed it was him.
UA-cam channels have said lots already. From the name of the suspect, where he lives, his job, and perhaps that he was even a part of the search party. I've heard from law enforcement officials from past interviews that DNA was found and gathered. But searchers were there before police, that sort of contaminates the scene. And could make it a more difficult case to win. Perhaps it's taken this long to get something more concrete. Months ago they were searching in the river a few miles from the bridge. The person arrested wasn't on anyone's bingo card, but obviously the police know so much more.
That’s what I think they finally got his DNA or maybe through investigations on DNA sites like 23 and me or some other DNA family sites
Did anyone notice that he started shaving his head after the murders?
Let's hope so
The suspect has changed his appearance. And Doug Carter when he said that already knew this guy changed it so he mentioned it in one of his speeches to mess with the guy
Note they say it will be an "update" and no confirmation of "arrest". There is a big
difference there. Other suspects were taken in like Daniel Nations, and others for
questioning, but no arrests were made. Lets hope on Monday, they are calling in
an arrest, and some brief details of why they think this is the killer. Hope so.
He was arrested.
@@DebraGill I really hope so, but this
video would not confirm an arrest. If he
is arrested, he's likely the killer, as they
wouldn't arrest without good evidence.
Just type his name in the search bar.
The family confirmed it…
I think there’s going to be a live broadcast on Monday
Just little girls still, barely teens. Indiana has been hoping & praying for Libby & Abby's families. God be with them.
I'll bet his wife knew.
This is so incredible 😢❤ Such good news and a blessing. Never forgot this case and always prayed for this "man" to be caught
Praying they solve and catch the creep who killed these precious children. So sad. Praying for their family and friends. 💔. Heartbreaking.
I’m so anxious about this press conference. I’m hoping this is it. Those families need and deserve justice.
I hope the case can finally be closed and these girls put to completely rest and get the justice they deserve.
I hope they really give a real update and not some more smoke and mirrors bs
I have kept up with this case from the beginning. There have been so many twists and turns. There is so much we still don't know. But I hope this is it. The families deserve peace and Abby and Libby deserve justice.
Did familia DNA catch him? That could also explain the length of investigation and arrest. There is no doubt it's him from what I've watched about him online.
Maybe there was someone around him that felt he had something to do with it and tipped off police..I hope they publicize this case just like the Brooks case so we can all find out
@@Buddha_Girl1 yes could've got a confession
Why hasn’t the full video with audio been released?
LE dragging thier butts for almost 6 years and how many more victims have their been during that time?? Barney Fife could have wrapped this case up 5 years ago!! Most SOLVED cases don't have a Video of the Killer, a Digital Footprint of the Killer, Cellphone Pings, DNA, etc, etc, but this UNSOLVED case DOES!! 😡
btw, we don't have the entire video of the Killer only 2 seconds of it! You ONLY have to convince a JURY!!! You're not doing Rocket Science trying to fly people to MARS!! Is the FBI still overseeing this mess? If so they're not doing very well like fumbling around looking for Brian Laundrie or Kiely Rodni or Gabby Petito which all got solved by Brian's parents, AWP, and some random UA-camrs!!
Alright calm down barney, give me your bullet.
This case, Angela Hammond, and the EAR/Golden State Killer were the cases I just absolutely had to have an answer to. One down, two to go.
And sadly so many more. Especially Children.. Beyond Disturbing and Sad
Golden State Killer is solved.
Delphi and Asha Degree. Just eats me up that there hasn't been justice. I hope Monday there is some direction towards justice for at least one of them.
JonBenet 😢
I'm sure you'll solve them
Prayers to the girls families ❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
We need more reporters like Barbara MacDonald.
His name is Richard Allen. He lives (or lived at the time) 2 miles from Monon High Bridge.
I saw on another video that a man named Richard Allen was arrested for the murders of these two young girls. I can't wait for more details and information to be released. Like how did he get away for so long? This case is so sad but I'm glad that there's some progress being made.
I dont understand why they don't release more information.
It might compromise the investigation
I knew he didn’t come off the expressway! If he came the route I think then I need to be a detective! I hope more info comes out quickly and this is the person!
His home is close to the trail, he could have walked .
I think these families could have gotten justice years ago if the police weren't so secretive. Apparently they have like a 40 second clip of this man with his voice and image, but they've only ever released the "down the hill" part to the public. It's going to be very hard to find anyone who would be able to identify that voice when you're only giving three quick words to go by. I think more of his voice should have been released YEARS ago!
What a POS u have to be to do something like that , I hope Doug Carter does press conference on Monday , I like that guy!!
Why do they need to wait until Monday to announce the new details??
i followed Abby and Libby and hoped for their justice ever since the day it broke national headlines what happened to them. so disturbing im not even going to put his name in the same comment as their beautiful names, how can a person do such a thing and just return to normal life like nothing happened...someone must have noticed although from my research his wife lost her brother in the year prior and wonder if that gave him the space he needed to commit the crime and get away with it while her mind was occupied grieving and maybe the daughter just thought it was related to that... i dont want to jump to conclusions i really hope they did not know all this time or that if they did that they were the ones who finally tipped off LE. thank God they are getting the justice they have deserved for so so long.
See y'all at the press conference stream on monday
My heart is so happy for this news. Thank God they’re killer has been arrested, but for some reason I don’t feel like he did it alone!
For those involved LE are causing maximum stress. Brilliant policing strategy
To Abby and Libby's family my heart goes out to you and I hope this is the end of it what goes to trial and convicted which will give you peace because I'm pretty sure looking at this guy's face that this is the man. I have never said that about any of the suspects but this guy gives me the creeps and he certainly looks like the man
This HAS BEEN More than EXCRUCIATING I PRAY THEY HAVE THE EVIL ONE OR 2 WHO DID THIS EXTREME ATTROSCOTIES????
Saw a video on TikTok of him wearing the blue jacket …. Glad they finally got him this case has bothered me since it happened
You got a link by chance?
Link?
@@tedmitchell5286 no I’m sorry I saw it surfing through and there is quite a few others on TikTok that we’re sharing stuff and videos from the bar with BG and his wife …. I don’t follow anyone in particular just came across while I was flipping through
Breaking News!
We have no news.
Garbage
The name of the man who was arrested has already been revealed. Apparently, his name is Richard Allen. I learned of this last night. I believe it was from the "Murder Sheet Podcast".
Its sad that someone knows and never said nothi n justice for these angels
Now let's get EMMETT Till's Murderer, how about that !! 🙏🏾🤔
Death penalty for all savage rapist and murderers!!!!
He looks just like the guy in the video and the first sketch released. I have to think someone in that little town recognized her m and reported it to law enforcement. Allen may have been on law enforcement’s radar for years but needed more evidence, especially physical evidence.
We love these girls for five years ! So happy for the family ! Until we all will see each other on that promised day ! Fr.Canada
For the sake of the families and friends I am glad they can have some closure. Awful situation.
So grateful these girls will RIP now, and all my gratitude to the ISP, and community of Delphi
What’s up with this spooky mystery music playing the beginning this is a serious issue not some murder podcast.
I have always stood by the police not handling this case the best with how information was issued out. Once the truth comes out, I feel that with the information we were given this entire time it was next to impossible to solve this as an outsider. Was it cyber was it not? Were they staged were they not? The voice and the video.
The girls are at peace already, they were at peace the moment they took their last breath...
Their souls still needed this to come to fruition.
🙈🙉🙊🙏 Heartwrenching For So Much Time To Go By Without Knowing, What Would Make A Person Do Something So Horrible and Go On With Their Life Like Nothing Happened, Seems Like He Had Been Stocking Them or Maybe Met On Social Media and Planned To Meet There, Why Some Are Murdered and Some Not, Some Guys Take It Personally When You Turn Down Their Advances and Go Off The Deep End, But How Do They Kill Once and Not Do It Again, Prayers This
Is The One and Justice Is Served For Those Precious Children and Their Families, So Heartbreaking.
Capitalizing every word? Why?
Justice for Abby & Libby. R.I.H. sweet angels.🕊️🕊️🕊️
Justice for Abby & Libby. R.I.P BEAUTIFUL ANGELS. FLY HIGH. PRAYERS FOR TJE FAMILIES & FRIRNDS 🙏🙏
It will be a BIG trial everyone everywhere will be tuned in , the world beloved girls ❤
New Zealand here ...tuned in
God bless these beautiful girls and their families and friends 🙏💔.
May they rest in peace with answers.
Method of murder used?
So exciting
This guy rang me up at CVS. Never would have imagined.
The photos your showing depict the girls as very happy and just living life. I hope the person in custody is the right man and justice is served
How ever they worked him out good on the officers 👮♀️ and all involved 5 yrs on ya not give up ⬆️ great detective 🕵️♀️ work 👌🥇
I think we are all looking forward to the whole story. This is a good day.
Justice for Abby and Libby
This has been a greatly entertaining case and I'm sure many will be both sad and happy it's over.
Maybe Keegan was in the jeep while Tony and Richard murdered the girls or Keegan and Richard or another purpose that we have yet to find out about this is beyond big and involved God bless Doug Carter and that team
He was right in their midst? Why are they sort of backtracking on this announcement?
It's heartbreaking I grew up in Delphi Indiana in the sixties early sevenies . We run all over town and Pittsburg. We never afraid of anything. It was a safe and beautiful place. For all generation. And these young girls faced with a monster. Who thought he had the right too take their lives. Was shocking. All the years have gone since I grew up there. I never thought once it wasn't a good place. Now I pray that they found the man. Even though I don't live there. I feel protective of Delphi. Home has been invaded by great evil. Living among the people hiding. Pretending to be their friend. I understand their anger and anxiousness to end this nightmare. Only God can relieve the pain. It's not Delphi fault . She is also a victim. Healing and closure come soon. Delphi and her citizens.
They are tormenting the people in that town they have a killer running amuck!!! If this is not the murderer....God help these people!!! WAY TOO many ifs.
I wonder what connections the suspects family have to the local police department that made them take so long to arrest him.
There has been a lot of secrecy with this case. I have no issue with it because what is most important is that they solve this.
The secrecy may well be keeping it from being solved.
These families will relive all the tragedy especially waiting for sentencing day, because until then, justice for these young teens will not be final. Yes, the arrest is a start, but the conviction and imprisonment will be the final justice. There is never closure only closure in knowing who did this.
My question is, are these the only kids.
