Allen, 52, is accused of killing two teenagers who went missing on Feb. 13, 2017, and were found dead the next day. He was arrested in 2022 and faces two counts of murder and two counts of murder during the kidnapping for the death of Abigail “Abby” Williams and Liberty “Libby” German.

On Saturday, jurors watched silent video camera footage of Richard Allen during his stay at the Westville Correctional Facility. As they watched, the screen was turned away from the public and media. His lawyers said they wanted to withhold the videos out of respect for Allen’s dignity, and special judge Frances Gull agreed. Jurors seemed visibly disturbed by the images.

Jurors also heard Saturday from Indiana State Police Superintendent Doug Carter about the investigation into Libby and Abby’s deaths. journalists of the Indianapolis Star and the Lafayette’s Diary and Courier continue to cover the case as it moves through the court system.
