The Delphi murders in Indiana took a strange turn when the accused man, Richard Allen, suggested that a secretive pagan cult was behind the tragic deaths of Libby and Abby in 2017. Allen’s lawyers said the murders were done by followers of Odinism, a Norse pagan religion linked to white nationalists. They even mentioned specific ‘Odinism signatures’ found at the crime scene, like the victims’ bodies positioned with branches to form pagan symbols. However, the court blocked this theory from being discussed. There’s no proof Allen or these suspects he named are connected to Odinism. Still, it’s interesting to think about how beliefs and symbols can be misused.

While Odinism itself is an ancient Norse religion, it has sometimes been twisted to fit divisions like white supremacy. Why this culture is appealing to some people tied to hate groups is also something to ponder. It’s a complex mix of history, belief, and possible misinterpretation.

Libby and Abby went missing in February 2017, and their bodies were found a day later. A man, known as “bridge guy,” appeared in a video they took. Their deaths shocked the community, and the case remains unsolved. Was there really a connection to Odinism, or is this just a distraction from finding the true culprits?
