Delphi murderer Richard Allen, who was convicted in the savage 2017 killings of Indiana teens Abigail Williams and Liberty German, was sentenced to 130 years in prison on Friday.
Allen, 52, was found guilty of murdering both eighth graders, 13 and 14, last month — nearly eight years after their bodies were found with their throats slit near a hiking trail.
The former drugstore employee encountered the girls, who were close friends, on the Monon High Bridge Trail in February 2017.
Allen forced the pair at gunpoint off the trail and threatened to rape them — but changed his plans when a van passed by, prosecutors said.
He then forced them down the bottom of a hill and cut open their necks about a quarter mile off the trail, where they were found the following day.
The grisly murders, which rocked the small city of Delphi, Indiana, went unsolved until October 2022 when Allen admitted to killing the girls.
