DELPHI MURDER SUSPECT'S COLD 8 WORDS TO WIFE: "I DID IT. I KILLED ABBY & LIBBY”

Prosecutors rest their case after 12 days, spending time proving that Richard Allen is infamous "Bridge Guy" captured on Libby German's phone. Prosecutors believe Libby and Abby were led down the hill to be raped before their killer panicked, slashed their throats and covered their bodies with sticks before fleeing the area. One of Richard Allen's 61 + confessions said he got scared by a white van.The prosecution found a neighbor got home in his white van near the scene of the murders.

The defense calls their first witness, Cheyenne Mill. She is walking the trails and bridge the day Abby and Libby vanished. Says she was there from 2:50pm, talked to her boyfriend on her phone at 3:12 pm, saw an overweight man on Freedom Bridge who did not say HI back to her. She describes the man as old with a camera around his neck. Mill tells jurors she didn't hear of seeing anything unusual or see anyone in the wooded area and she spoke to police the next day after hearing about the girls. Six months later the FBI contacted her saying her phone pinged on the Hight bridge February 13. Mill cries on stand talking about online vigilantes doxing her.
