Who is Kegan Kline?
TRAGEDY struck a local community as two families mourned the deaths of their teenage daughters.
As the investigation into Abby Williams and Libby German’s homicides went underway, Kegan Kline became linked to the case.
Who is Kegan Kline?
On March 30, 2023, Kegan Kline pleaded guilty to 25 counts of:
- Child solicitation
- Child exploitation
- Possession of child porn
- Obstruction of justice
Although he pleaded guilty to the aforementioned charges, the counts are not related to the Delphi murder cases of Libby German and Abby Williams.
However, police did link Kline to the investigation because of his social media interactions with the late Libby and Abby.
Kline was the imposter behind a fake Snapchat profile named anthony_shots.
While using the profile, he catfished several underage girls and persuaded them into sending him nude photographs.
Among the girls who he deceived were murder victims Abby and Libby.
Police reported Kline confessed to using the bogus anthony_shots profile to obtain child pornography.
He denied any involvement in Libby and Abby’s homicides but he did have contact with the former via the fake Snapchat page sometime before she met her end.
He told investigators: “I literally have no clue how that girl died.
“I don’t know anything, anything to do with it. Yeah, that is a weird a** coincidence that I happened to talk to her, like, I get that.”
During the investigation, Kline was never officially named a suspect.
Who was named a suspect in the Delphi Murders?
On October 28, 2022, Indiana State Police arrested CVS pharmacy technician Richard Allen in connection to the killings of 13-year-old Abby Williams and 14-year-old Libby German.
On February 13, 2017, both victims were found on Delphi Historic Trails.
Upon police taking Allen into custody, ISP superintendent Doug Carter announced: “Today is not a day to celebrate, but the arrest of Richard M. Allen of Delphi on two counts of murder is sure a major step in leading to the conclusion of this long-term and complex investigation.”
At the time, one of Allen’s CVS co-workers, who wished to remain anonymous, told The U.S. Sun: “The people who worked with him had no clue and were just as surprised as everyone else.
“They’re all just really hoping that there’s some kind of a mistake in that it isn’t him.
“But at the same time, if it is him, they hope there is solid proof because everybody wants to see this come to an end. There’s just a lot of mixed emotions.”
