@pricklypear7516 No evidence whatsoever there were two offenders involved in the abduction and murder of Libby German and Abby Williams. Police were always very clear they were looking for ONE suspect. And it's thought Libby DID try to make a break for it and run - which is how she, Abby and the killer wound up crossing the creek (the girls' bodies were found on the other side).
A predatory male can easily control two, frightened teens, Abby and Libby were just 13 and 14 years old. The "Guys - down the hill" audio supports the theory he subdued them with threats of a gun/knife, and that's another reason they obeyed him - as most kids would, suddenly faced with that terrifying situation.
The term "Guys" is often used towards children and in fact is exactly the kind of familiar, casual language a predator would use towards child victims, as in "Guys, do this and I won't hurt you". Besides, if he had an accomplice as you suggest, that accomplice is not seen on Libby's cellphone footage, suggesting he was already waiting 'down the hill'! There was no second killer!
Please don't spread misinformation in a case that's already featured much confusion, due to a bungled police investigation. And please don't victim-blame. Libby and Abby were just children, the odds were stacked against them that day and they were unable to escape a powerful adult male with murder in mind. They deserve nothing but praise for their courage in an horrific situation, and the fact Libby courageously shot video and audio of the killer in what turned out to be her final, tragic moments alive. God bless them both - may justice and truth finally prevail. Prayers to the Williams and German families, in the difficult weeks and months ahead.

If Richard Allen is the notorious Delphi murderer of Libby German and Abby Williams, police will have some very difficult questions to answer about why it took them almost 6 years to make an arrest - when their suspect lived just a stone's throw from the crime scene!
What's more, Supt Doug Carter had himself addressed the killer in an early media conference and said: "I believe you are hiding in plain sight". With the arrest of Richard Allen, it seems that statement was absolutely true. So again, why did almost six years pass before his arrest - six years in which that highly dangerous man was free to kill and sexually assault females.
believe it will soon emerge Supt Carter and his detectives wasted time on a red herring, the fake 'Antony Shots' social media account, and bogus murder suspect Kegan Kline who had nothing to do with the double child homicide. Many teen girls are cat-fished by perverts like Kline, alas that's not unusual. But online predators rarely become actual killers - the murders of Abby and Libby in an outdoor, public location during a daytime walk were a massively rare event, and massively against the odds.
May truth and justice finally prevail for Abby, Libby and their poor, devastated loved ones. May all good people who followed this horrific case hold the Williams and Germans up in prayer in the difficult coming weeks and months.

@pricklypear7516 Nothing wrong with intelligent, informed speculation. But you're inventing detailed scenarios for which there is no evidence whatsoever - that's telling fairy tales, so utterly worthless and totally unhelpful.
Yes I was once 13 years old (brilliant deduction on your part). So were you, which only makes your lack of empathy for the paralysing terror these children would have experienced all the more unimpressive. Two little girls (and at 13 and 14 Abby and Libby were only just teens), are no physical or mental match for an adult male predator with an horrific agenda of sexual violence.
They had no lived experience of such an immediate, criminal threat to their lives, to have the first clue how to handle it. Your blase assumption they could have escaped one man so there had to be two, is factually incorrect and an insult to those brave children. As I've pointed out, police believe Libby and Abby DID try to make a break for it and ran across the brook to escape their captor, but were quickly caught and subdued.
The killer had luck on his side too, in that his crime was not interrupted by any witnesses who could have saved the girls.
There's no reason to assume as you do that Kegan Kline's cat-fishing automatically means he/his father were connected with the Delphi murders. Police pursued that line of enquiry exhaustively, without making any corresponding arrests (if every owner of a fake Instagram profile were investigated for murder, there would be many police man hours wasted!)
Such shady online activity is sadly common, and countless teen girls are its targets. In contrast the Delphi double homicide in a public place in broad daylight is a very different crime, a million miles more heinous and audacious than an everyday incident of internet fraud. Having prior online contact with Libby is not, as you state, 'compelling' evidence Kline was involved in her and Abby's murders - it's no evidence at all!
It's obviously escaped your notice, but there are creepy men everywhere. Hell, even the late Ron Logan who owned the land where the murders took place had a history of violence against women, and at least one ex partner told police she was 'frightened' of him. Logan didn't help his cause by asking a family member to lie for him re his alibi on Monday 13th February 2017. Like the Klines, Logan's home was searched by police and his DNA taken - and also like the Klines, he was not charged in connection with Libby and Abby's deaths. Being a creepy guy does not necessarily make you a killer! Depending on your precise location, there could be literally hundreds of convicted sex offenders living within a 5 mile radius of your US home - and who knows how many more dangerous, predatory/abusive men who've never been charged with a crime.
This double homicide shows every indication of being the work of a loner who had no relationship with the victims - and stranger killings are notoriously hardest of all to solve. If Abby and Libby's killer turns out to be a total stranger to them and this was a crime of opportunity as I believe, police will no doubt rely on that to explain/excuse their near six year failure to catch him.
However, if Richard Allen is the Delphi killer tough questions will inevitable be asked as to why it took law enforcement so long to identify him when he was right under their noses, living a stone's throw from the crime scene. It would be particularly ironic when from the start of the murder investigation Supt Doug Carter suggested the killer could be a local man, and even addressed him directly with the words: "We believe you are hiding in plain sight".
Monday's media conference should bring some much needed clarity to this case. Hopefully that will shut down online BS like yours, which, in the absence of even the most basic facts from police woefully inexperienced in handling homicide cases, has been able to flourish unchecked.
