The case of two middle school girls that stuck together until the very end.
On February 13, 2017, Abigail Williams, 13 and Liberty German, 14, were murdered in a double homicide while out in the historic trails in their hometown of Delphi, Indiana.
Abigail (Abby) Williams and Liberty (Libby) German were as close as two best friends could possibly be. The girls attended school together and played sports such as volleyball and softball together.
