The prosecutor overseeing the case against a northern Indiana man charged in the 2017 killings of two teenage girls has dismissed as “fanciful” a recent court filing by the man's attorneys contending the girls actually died as part of a ritual sacrifice.
Carroll County Prosecutor Nicholas McLeland called the theory a “fanciful defense for social media to devour” in a document filed Monday, a week after Richard Allen's attorneys said in a filing that Abigail Williams, 13, and Liberty German, 14, were killed by members of a pagan Norse religion and white nationalist group known as Odinists.
