DELPHI, Ind. -- Liberty German's grandfather is expected to make a public statement about her death for the first time on Thursday.
Neither the Germans nor the family of Abigail Williams have spoken publicly since the girls went missing on February 13 and were ultimately found dead the next day.
German's grandfather is expected to speak Thursday at 10 a.m. at the Carroll County Courthouse. RTV6 will carry the speech live on the RTV6 app, theindychannel.com/live and on the RTV6 Facebook page.
The families of both girls toured the Delphi investigation headquarters last week.
While there, Abigail's grandparents made a stop at a board where the community can leave messages for investigators. Their message to police offered prayers and thanks:
Libby, 14, and Abby, 13, went missing while hiking near the Monon High Bridge. Their bodies were found less than a mile from where they were last seen alive.
