By John Szink May 27, 2025 | 5:09 PM

Carroll County, Indiana taxpayers shelled out nearly $1 million for the defense of Richard Allen, convicted in the 2017 killings of Abby Williams and Libby German in Delphi.

$986,000 covered his lawyers, travel, specialists, and more from January 2023 to March 2025.

Around $51,000 in defense requests were denied because documentation was missing.

The cost to prosecute the case has not been disclosed.
