I'm your host Ashley flowers and I'm Britt and Every dutiful crime junkie should know that in Indiana the trial against Richard Allen has been Folding for the murders of Abby Williams and Liberty German, which many people know is the Delphi murders It has dominated the headlines for weeks and as of the time of this recording the defense has just rested and closing arguments Are about to begin which means that this eight-year-long fight? Might be coming to an end Maybe already has by the time you're listening to this episode and for the sake of Abby and Libby's families who have had to sit Day in and day out in that courtroom hearing every last awful detail about their girls last few moments Displaying a level of courage few of us could possibly comprehend Verdict aside whatever the outcome. I hope that they find some peace some Justice that they so desperately deserve But there has been something that every day when I see the trial recaps pop up like I keep finding myself thinking about and it's this Other case this other set of young Midwesterner girls who were abducted found murdered in the woods and actually for a minute Back in 2017 lots of people even thought it could be connected to the Delphi case Which I mean now it seems pretty clear. It's not But then it leaves you asking like well, where does that leave this other one? This other case that happened almost five years before Delphi and yet in that one There still is no trial. No arrests. No suspects or at least No suspects officially anyway. This is the story of Lyric Cook Morrissey and Elizabeth Collins Hey, I'm junkies It's Britt and I'm jumping in here because post recording this episode some news happened as I'm sure you all know of verdict has since been reached in The Delphi case and Richard Allen has been found guilty on all counts Though there's some mixed feelings about this one the jury felt like there was enough presented to convict him So that's where we're at today But like Ashley said verdict aside all we had hoped for was some type of closure for the families by the end of all of this Of course, this conviction won't give them Abby and Libby back But hopefully they've found at least some of the answers they've been searching for answers that unfortunately not every family gets in seven years or Ten years or even a lifetime, but that doesn't mean we should ever stop fighting for them So let's jump back into today's story where justice is still yet to be served *Music*
