(WXIN/WTTV) A full, 43-second video taken by Libby German just before she and her friend Abby Williams were murdered has released online. The video can be seen above.

The video, which captures the suspect who has come to be known as “Bridge Guy,” was taken on German’s cell phone while she and Williams walked Delphi’s Monon High Bridge in February 2017. The two young girls were murdered after the video was taken.

In the video, we see Williams walking along the bridge with a man walking closely behind her. At this point, Williams can be heard saying something to German referencing the man walking behind her.

She then appears to hurry off of the bridge and walks in front of German, who is pointing her phone toward the ground. Both girls appear to be sniffling, but that could be due to the cold weather.

Prosecutors and police investigators alleged last year that the girls could be heard in the video referencing a gun the man may have been carrying. Multiple FOX59/CBS4 staffers have reviewed the video and heard potential references to a gun made by the girls at around 17 seconds. However, the audio is not definitive.

At another point in the video, it appears that Williams says something to the effect of “don’t leave me” as the man gets closer to them. The video captures German’s voice as she discusses a potential route to walk off of the usual bridge path.

Then, a man’s voice can be heard saying the words “Guys, down the hill.” German can be heard replying “Hi” after man says “guys,” but before he says “down the hill.” It sounds as if the man may have said, “Hey” before “Guys, down the hill,” but it is again not definitive.

Previously, an audio clip of the man’s voice was released by police as they searched for suspects. A still photo of the man was also released, which came to be known as the Bridge Guy photo.

Over five years later, Richard Allen was arrested by Indiana State Police for the murders. During his highly-publicized trial, prosecutors argued that Allen was the “Bridge Guy” seen in the video and that he was the one who was solely responsible for the girls’ deaths.

Allen was found guilty last November on all counts in relation to the murders. In December, he was sentenced to 130 years in prison.

While the full, 43-second video taken by German was played in court, this is the first time this it has been released to the public. The video can be seen below:

The video was released this week on a website called Justice for Rick Allen by supporters who have aligned themselves with Allen’s defense team. In an attempt to prove he is innocent, the website’s operators say they are releasing evidence presented at trial. The post containing the video says:

“The attorneys representing Mr. Allen continue to receive a considerable number of inquiries and requests for access to public records and exhibits related to State of Indiana v. Richard Allen.

In response to similar requests, the Court has stated that “the exhibits are needed for the production of a transcript if one is requested by the parties” and that fulfilling such requests “will interrupt the process and guarantee the Reporter will be forced to ask the Indiana Court of Appeals for an extension of time [to] file the transcript.”

Recognizing the significant public interest and in the spirit of transparency, this site will serve as a central resource for accessing public records, exhibits, frequently asked questions, and updates on Mr. Allen’s post-conviction legal proceedings. All information will be provided in accordance with the Indiana Rules on Access to Court Records and Indiana Code 5-14-3.“

FOX59/CBS4 received the following statement from Richard Allen’s attorney Stacey Uliana.

“The fact that the video was posted on a website has nothing to do with the pending appeal or the fairness of the trial at the heart of that appeal,” Uliana said.

The video releasing online comes the day after Allen’s attorneys made a filing in the Indiana Court of Appeals challenging their client’s conviction, something his defense team immediately said they were planning to do. The specific filing documents have not yet been released as of 7:30 p.m. Wednesday.
