Police were forced to deny the rumor that they arrested a man in Kokomo for the killing of the teenagers. Carroll County Sheriff Tobe Leazenby told the Lafayette Journal & Courier the news of the arrest is false. "A lot of what we see social media wise is simply two things," he said. "Number one, I feel like people venting or offering their opinion. Then secondly, theories is a lot of what we’re offered.”
The man authorities believed killed the girls was caught on Liberty German’s camera phone, but police were withholding the video, they told RadarOnline.com. Only his image was released to the public, and they have asked anyone with information about his identity to contact police.
The shocking audio released by the police featured a man saying “down the hill.” It was taped by German just prior to the two girls being murdered.
