The prosecution rested Thursday in the double murder trial of Richard Allen. Allen is charged with the murders of Abby Williams and Liberty German in February 2017. The day began with the state of Indiana calling its final witness at the Carroll County Courthouse.The prosecution played eight recorded telephone conversations involving Allen. The conversations range from November 2022 to June 2023, when Allen was being held at the West Hill Correctional Facility. The prosecuting attorney outlined that Allen was making incriminating statements during those calls. Jurors heard Allen tell his wife Kathy that he killed Williams and German. Kathy would tell him, "No, you didn't it. You're not well. You didn't do those things."In other telephone conversations, Allen was also heard saying he thought he did it (committed the murders of the girls,) but he also felt like he was losing his mind. He also expressed thoughts of killing himself. Several of the phone calls were to Allen's mother Janice. He didn't talk specifically about the murders, but he did talk about he feels the system was killing him, and told them he was "losing his mind." He stressed to them that he would never do what he was accused of doing and that he felt mentally tortured.Jurors also heard from state witness Brian Harshman. He is the Master Trooper in charge of analyzing more than 700 recorded phone calls where Allen was on the phone. Harshman also monitored his tablet, in-cell video, and Allen's review behavior reports.Thursday morning on the stand, Harshman testified that in his estimation, the voice of the man known as "Bridge Guy" is the voice of Richard Allen.A prosecuting attorney asked Harshman if he could identify Allens voice because he had so much experience monitoring all of Allens calls.Harshman replied, "Yes. The video of the girls walking on the Monon High Bridge was played in court again. The court heard the words, Down the Hill." Harshman was asked by the prosecutor whose voice he thought he heard. Harshman simply stated, Richard Allen.Phone call of November 14, 2022 (Richard Allen to his wife Kathy)The phone call begins with Allen telling his wife Kathy that hes sorry, but he just needs her to tell the investigators that he will tell them whatever they want.

Kathy replied, Neither do I."There were several breaks during the afternoon session. One was to allow Special Judge Fran Gull to watch a 30-minute video in her chambers. The state hoped to enter the video as evidence, but the defense argued it was unaware of it and said it was irrelevant to the case. After watching the video, which reportedly showed Allen acting out in the Cass County Jail and becoming irate towards the guards, Judge Gull sided with the defense and did not allow it to be played. The prosecution rested after Judge Gull ruled on the video, and the defense team for Richard Allen promptly called its first witness to the stand. Neither defense witness was on the stand very long Thursday afternoon. The first witness was Cheyenne Mill. She said she was on the trail on February 13, 2017, the day Abby Williams and Libby German disappeared. She told the defense attorney she saw a man on the trail who was overweight and did not speak to hear when she said hi. She also testified to taking photos along the trail that day, and she shared those photos with police investigators. The second witness was Teresa Liebert. She was shown a map of the area, and she pointed out the private road owned by her neighbor Brad Weber. She also pointed to the location of her home. Liebert said she saw someone who "appeared to be strange" standing near the mailboxes, but she could not see his face or what he was wearing. Upon cross-examination, the prosecution asked, "So you are telling us around 8:30 AM on this day, you and your husband were coming home and saw a man you had never seen before, but you didn't see his face or a photo of him?"Liebert replied, "Yes."The prosecutor responded, "Thank you for coming in today. No further questions." The jury had one question for Liebert. A juror clarified that there was no school on February 13, 2017, then wanted to know if the person by the mailboxes could have been a student. She said, "No."
