Wednesday 18 May 2022 04:01 PM New details of Delphi Bridge Murders reveal victims died in bloodbath, killer ... trends now
The victims of a notorious unsolved 2017 murder were found covered in blood - and their killer took a twisted souvenir, a search warrant has revealed.
Delphi Bridge murder victims Abby Williams, 13, and Libby German, 14, were found to have lost a large amount of blood when discovered dead close to an Indiana hiking trail in February 2017.
'A large amount of blood was lost by the victims at the crime scene,' the warrant read. It did not note how the girls had lost so much blood, but noted that there were no signs of a 'struggle or fight.'
The warrant, obtained by the Murder Sheet podcast and and released to Indianapolis FOX59, did not say exactly how the teenagers had been killed.
Police have never disclosed how the two friends died after being stalked by their killer on a hiking trail, with information on the bloody crime scene offering a gruesome new detail. Their killer likely got his victims' blood on his clothes, the warrant also revealed.

Chillingly, FBI investigators believe the young friends' killer took a souvenir from their corpses to provide a warped memento of his appalling crimes. But the warrant offered no further detail on what the souvenir was.
And sickeningly, the murderer - who has never been caught - 'staged' the girls' bodies in a particular way after killing them, although it remains unclear exactly how he did this.
Investigators believe photographs or videos were likely shot of the grim scene.
The warrant also revealed that the FBI had probable cause to search the home and property of Ron Logan, the owner of the land where the girls' bloodied bodies were found. They were discovered about 1,400 feet from Logan's house.
Logan was arrested shortly after the killings, but was never charged, and died in 2020.
The 2017 murder of Abby, 13, and Libby, 14, became notorious after investigators released chilling footage the girls recorded of a man following and approaching them across the Manon High Bridge in the woods of Delphi, Indiana.
A brief snippet of audio was released, of the man saying 'Down the hill.' The full clip is 43 seconds long, but its contents are believed to be too disturbing to share in full.
The voice in the clip did not match that of Logan, the FBI investigation concluded. A brief clip of the man walking towards the girls on the Monon High Bridge Trail was released too.
