“The investigation, tips and leads have pointed us in a different direction,” Riley said. Liberty and Abigail were eighth graders at Delphi. including one in April 2019 based on video from German’s cellphone that’s believed to be more accurate than a sketch released in July 2017. Almost three years later, its a mystery that still haunts the small town of Delphi, Indiana while police say the killer may walk among them.

Kim Riley told The Indianapolis Star that investigators now believe the new sketch released more accurately represents the man responsible for the killings. The murders shook Delphi, a small town of 2,877 people set amid farm fields of the Hoosier heartland, about 60 miles northwest of Indianapolis. THE grandfather of a 13-year-old girl slain in the Delphi Snapchat murders has warned her killer 'youll meet your maker.'. Investigators are searching for the killer using their biggest clue: a recording of his voice from one of the victims phones ordering the girls Down the Hill. “This person’s appearance could look different today if he has grown a mustache, beard or let his hair grow longer or cut his hair shorter than depicted in the sketch,” police said.Īlthough the new sketch was just recently released to the media, it was actually drawn in 2017 shortly after the teens disappeared. Investigators believe the man’s age could range from his 20s to his 30s but caution that his “youthful appearance” could make him appear younger than he is. The second sketch, released Monday, was created using video of a man captured on German’s cell phone as he was walking on a high bridge on the day the teens disappeared from the Delphi Historic Trails.
