UPDATE: Investigators have announced murder charges against 50-year-old Delphi resident Richard Allen. Read more here.

DELPHI, Ind. (WISH) — The suspect in the 2017 murders of Abigail “Abby” Williams and Liberty “Libby” German is not cooperating with authorities, a source tells News 8.

Richard Allen, 50, has been arrested and is in custody in connection with the Delphi murders, according to online jail records.

Investigators at 10 a.m. Monday will provide an update on the two girls’ murders, Indiana State Police said Friday. News 8 will carry the press conference live.

News 8 has reached out to the Carroll County Prosecutor’s Office, Indiana State Police and the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office more for information.

Authorities have not yet publicly shared the name of the person arrested.

Abby and Libby’s bodies were found on Feb. 14, 2017. No one has ever been charged for their murders.

Long on the radar of Indiana State Police is Kegan Kline. Eleven days after the discovery of the murders, state police served a search warrant while investigating a social media that police say has a connection to the Delphi victims. While investigators linked Kline to the account, he has not been charged for the murders of Abby and Libby.
