Thank you so much! The murders shook Delphi, a small town of 2,877 people set amid farm fields of the Hoosier heartland, around an hour from Indianapolis. Great points. The suspected pedophile - who is heavy-set and pasty-faced - used an image of a ripped and muscular young man to trick underage girls into speaking to him. I dont believe he was specifically looking for young females. I wonder if they have spoken to BG - even "burner" phones have to be purchased and there may be hours of video from different stores that they're going through. Interesting but I still think it is a local person. I cant see the police releasing a phone picture a day or two after the murders.

Libby's sister Kelsi told Renner, as a way to keep going and honor her sister, "I want to be the person I saw Libby as, so, outgoing and fun and talking to everybody.". The man or the mill owner, or both, could have lied about anything and I wouldn't know. If he was in Indiana I wonder of he has family in the Delphi areathe trail isnt easy to find from what I understand.i live 19 miles away from Delphi and never heard of it until the murders and after that my daughter and I went to lay flowers at beginning of the trail and still couldnt find so what Im saying ia most likely he either spent time working in Delphi or has family in the area.
