The Delphi Murders: Ronald Logan and the Klines

Today we are going to discuss both the case against Ronald Logan and the case against the Klines-- and we will also explain why we feel that the case against the Klines is more interesting.Over the last couple of weeks, we have received reports that people in the Delphi area have begun to tear down posters about the case because they feel the revelation of the Ronald Logan search warrant means that the case has been solved. Others act as if the information about Logan somehow makes the case against the Klines much weaker.In this episode we discuss why we feel that both of those views are wrong and offer a strong reminder that this case is not solved. We need to remember to keep our eyes open and continue to look for justice for Abby and Libby.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------We’d like to take a minute to tell you about our newest sponsor– the Huuuge Casino app. This app lets you play a variety of slots casino games online– in fact you can play over 130 free top casino slot machines at the Huuuge casino.
