On February 13, 2017, two girls went for a walk near Delphi, Indiana. They never came home.
Abigail Williams, 13, and Liberty German, 14, vanished from a popular hiking trail near the Monon High Bridge. The next day, they were found murdered. What followed was not a clean investigation or a tidy path to justice, but a six-year saga that would fracture a town, divide the public, and raise uncomfortable questions about policing, media, and truth itself.
This is the first chapter in DEVIANT’s definitive series on the Delphi murders.
In Part One, host Dan Szematowicz goes back to the beginning.
The town.
The trail.
The timeline.
The last known movements of Abby and Libby.
The search.
And the moment everything changes.
This series does not pick sides or ask you to accept conclusions upfront.
It lays out the facts, piece by piece, and lets the story speak for itself.
Since Dan's original coverage from the podcast "Down The Hill: The Delphi Murders" ended in 2022, there has been an arrest, a trial, a conviction, and an explosion of new information and controversy. Some believe justice has been served. Others believe the truth is still out of reach, and that an innocent man sits behind bars.
This series re-examines the entire case as it stands today, starting here, at the very beginning.
If you think you know this story, you may want to listen anyway.
If you don’t, you’ll soon understand why it refuses to let go.
This is DEVIANT.
We’re all wired differently.
Some of us step outside every boundary.
These are those stories.
