Going Behind the Scenes

There's ’s a new Sheriff in town– or at least there will be soon. Carroll County Sheriff Tobe Leazenby– who has been running the investigation into the murders of Liberty German and Abigail Williams cannot run for the office again because of term limit restrictions. At the moment, no one has filed for the Democratic nomination and three men have filed for the Republican nomination– Mike Thomas, Tony Liggett and Lee Hoard. It is inevitable that the way the Delphi murder investigation has been handled or mishandled will become an issue in this race. And– of course– the man who wins the election will end up having a tremendous impact on the future of the case. Anyone who cares about getting justice for Libby and Abby really needs to follow this campaign.Considering that, we decided to reach out to candidate Mike Thomas. He gave us his thoughts on what’s been done in the investigation– and what he would do differently if he became the man in charge.This episode takes a break from our focus on restaurant homicides, and is part of our intermittent series of episodes on the Delphi case.

When we covered the Donut Shop murders last year, we didn't get into one particularly disturbing element of the case. When Sherman McCrary and Carl Taylor embarked on their violent, cross-country rampage, they didn't just have their wives in tow. They brought along Ginger McCrary-Taylor's young sons as well. This week, we present the conclusion of our talk with Jerry Nations, one of those sons. Jerry shares the story of what it was like to reunite with Ginger as an adult — and will reveal the surprising truth of what she did for a living. .Thanks again to Jerry Nations for being so open and generous with his time.

Correction: In this episode, we said that Tony Kline deleted his Facebook. That was incorrect. It appears that Kline blocked Murder Sheet co-creator Kevin Greenlee when he reached out for comment, so it only appeared that his page was gone. We regret the error. On Facebook, Kegan Anthony Kline posted that he was starting a new job in Las Vegas on the day that Abby Williams and Liberty German were murdered in Delphi, Indiana. But does Kline's Vegas alibi hold up? In this episode, the Murder Sheet speaks with business owners and casino employees to attempt to get to the truth.This episode takes a break from our focus on restaurant homicides, and is part of our intermittent series of episodes on the Delphi case.
