CAPTURED: Killer on the High Bridge
On October 31, 2022, the Indiana State Police, in conjunction with the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office, United States Marshals Service, and the Carroll County Prosecutors Office, held a press conference where they made the announcement thousands of people have been waiting to hear: an arrest had been made for the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German.
Here’s what we know:
- A man named Richard M. Allen, 50, was arrested on the morning of Friday, October 28, 2022.
- He has been charged with 2 counts of murder and has plead “not guilty” on both counts.
- Much of the evidence, timeline of events, and how they got him has not been publicized, so we’ll have to wait until his trial in March 2023.
