Blayne Alexander and Andrea Canning catch up about Andrea’s latest episode, “A Walk Through the Woods.” In 2017, two middle schoolers, Libby German and Abby Williams, were found murdered in the woods on the outskirts of Delphi, Indiana, near an abandoned railway bridge. For years, the case was at a standstill, except for one clue: a video of the killer captured by one of his victims on her cellphone.  Andrea tells Blayne about visiting the bridge for herself and what it was like covering the crime as the mother of girls the same age as the victims. Plus, she shares a podcast-exclusive clip from her interview with the prosecutor on the case, Nick McLeland, and answers viewer and listener questions from social media.
