One investigator into the as-yet unsolved murders, has revealed the girls’ killer left several “strange … signatures” at the kill site. The search resumed the next day and around noon, a searcher spotted the girls’ bodies about 15m from the north bank of Deer Creek, on the 12 hectare property of 77-year-old Ron Logan, who was not considered a suspect. The girls were due to be collected by Libby’s grandfather Mike Patty, her legal guardian, in the trail car park at 3.15pm, but failed to show up.īy 5pm, the girls’ families were out searching for them and by 6pm most the town, which has a population of around 3000, had joined police, but the girls were not found. It was an unseasonably warm day and the best friends were dropped off at 1.35pm for their walk, which started at a location which, LH told, has since been fenced off with bent red metal gate.Īt 2.09pm, Libby, used her mobile phone to upload a picture of Abby walking on the iconic bridge to Snapchat. The Monon High Bridge trail attracts hunters, fishers, campers and kids hiking or just taking photos of the popular spot. The murdered girls, who attended Delphi Community Middle School where they played saxophone and volleyball together, had visited the bridge before the day they died. That’s not too far from the end.”Ī video taken by a local grandfather of the walk along the Monon High Bridge, recorded just under four months before the murders, shows just how precarious it is to walk on the structure. “Down where you see him on that photo (the image captured by Libby German on her phone) is especially mushy and I was scared there. “My foot fell through several times and part of the board went down to the creek. The space between the gaps is not enough for your foot to slide through, unless you turn it sideways. “The bridge is a lot bigger than it looks in photos,” said LH, whose fear of heights meant, initially she “crawled across” the 7.5 storey high structure. The teens were found dead “down the hill” the following day, with their bodies bearing “strange … signatures” at the kill site across Deer Creek in woodland 2km out of town. “Nobody actually said it (but) he must not be to walk on a bridge like that … or he walked that bridge many times.” “One thing we know about that killer … it’s pretty obvious that the guy wasn’t scared of heights. “The girls should have not been on that bridge,” LH said. LH revealed the bridge is higher and more treacherous than it looks, with some of theĬross posts – called “ties” missing or rotten.Īnd the hill the girls were forced down is steeper, and once on it, a person would feel “trapped with no way out”. “When you are walking down the trail and approaching the bridge, the trail makes a turn and you can slowly see it ‘approaching’ you,” LH said.Ī frame from Libby’s video of the killer on the Monon High Bridge, minutes before he ordered the girls ‘down the hill’. It is the Monon High Bridge, a hiking trail near the tiny Indiana town of Delphi, 100km northwest of Indianapolis. LH, who has visited the location multiple times, describes in detail the spot where the schoolgirls were abducted on February 13, 2017. Indiana local LH, who didn’t want to be identified, told that she finds the spot the girls met and filmed their murderer so creepy, she takes a gun whenever she visits. Libby German recorded the killer’s order after she placed her phone with its video camera rolling in her pocket as he cornered them on the bridge. The murder investigation’s chief detective, who has heard the entire tape from which the audio fragment comes, describes the killer as having the “voice of the devil” coming through him. This is the location of the final death march by Abby Williams, 13, and Liberty German, 14, after they recorded their murderer’s chilling command to go “down the hill”. Eerie photographs show the hill two young teens were ordered to walk down by their killer before he murdered them in rural Indiana.
