This is a story I have never told anywhere online and even though I’m in my mid 20’s, I’ve only been able to tell 2 of my closest friends my whole life. It still bothers me greatly today and because of just general privacy, I have made this throwaway account to get this off my chest. I hope you don’t mind. Today I was finally able to play Crash Bandicoot. It took me almost 20 fucking years, but I did it. And I have to tell someone. In the summer of 2000, my little brother Jack and I always made weekly trips to the local video rental store. My mom and dad have always been big into movies and during the summer when we were off school, she would allow my brother and I to grab some stuff on the weekends to watch. One night we went in and saw that they were selling old rental movies and games at a discount. This wasn’t uncommon at all. But what was uncommon, was my brother and I seeing anything that we wanted on this shelf. Usually it was filled with what we considered ‘old people shit’ aka war flicks and romance. But we were pleasantly surprised to see that Crash Bandicoot 3 made it to this shelf at a very heavily discounted price. This wasn’t just a ‘oh cool!! They have Crash! Mom can we get it? ’ type of thing. This was a ‘MOM. WE NEED THIS OR OUR LIFE WILL BE RUINED! ’ type of thing. A few years previous to this, my brother and I absolutely bonded over playing Crash Bandicoot literally all day and night. It was both our all time favorite game and we were obsessed with it. It was ‘our’ thing. It was that one thing we shared together at a young age that we both totally loved and also totally loved being able to do it together. My mother knew this. Anyone who knew us a tiny bit could tell you that. We were ecstatic when our mom instantly said yes on buying it for us. The only thing that mattered to us in that very second was being able to make it home and finally play the newest Crash together. We got home after a 5 mile drive that felt like it lasted 7 hours out of anticipation. Within the first 20 seconds of making it through the front door the game was already put in and launching on our bedroom tv. Our plan was to beat it all in one night. We were determined! Whenever he couldn’t get past a certain point he would hand the controller over and I would try my best to impress my little brother how good I was at our favorite game. Even though we had plans to beat it all in one night, it definitely didn’t work out for us. By the time we got home from the rental store it was already 8pm. We played the game nonstop until finally midnight rolled around and my dad came in and told us it was time for bed. Of course we threw a big fit and argued back and forth for a bit before ultimately giving in to his commands when he told us that he would take the game away from us if we decided to stay up any later. Every night we would have the same routine. Jack would hop in the bath, brush his teeth, and change into his PJ’s while I would go into the second bathroom and take a shower and go through the same process. We always planned it to where we would be going to bed the same time. He promised me that he would try beating the level one more time as the water filled up in the tub and then he would turn it off and get in so that we don’t get grounded. Everything was perfectly fine up to this point. I got in the shower and my parents were in just the other room watching their movie rental. A picturesque example of how every night went in the house. I took my shower, brushed my teeth, and changed in my PJ’s. The only thing on my mind was getting to sleep so we could wake up the next day and play our game. I got out of the bathroom and headed back to the bedroom. Passed my parents on the way and we all said goodnight to each other. When I walked into the bedroom, I got a little pissed because I immediately saw that Jack didn’t turn the game off. Instead, he just paused it so he can keep going once he got out of his tub. We were good kids and always obeyed and followed rules. I was mostly mad at him because I thought he would make dad take the game from us for not listening to him. I walked up to the bathroom door and started knocking on it telling him that he’s stupid for not turning the game off. He didn’t respond. I figured that he was just upset about getting a scowling from his older brother about something he knew he shouldn’t have done. So I just walked away to lay in bed and wait for him to come out before turning everything off. He was in there for a questionable amount of time. I started to get a little curious and also a little worried. So I got out of bed and walked up to the bathroom door and started to knock again. No reply. I made the decision to just walk in after doing this for a few moments. I walked into the doorway and saw that the bathroom was flooded. The tub water was on just a little, but enough to overfill the tub and go onto the floor over a small amount of time. I ran over to the tub and pulled the curtain to the side. My little brother Jack was dead. He was floating in the tub face down. I started screaming at the top of my lungs. It felt like a billion emotions instantly hit me at once. My parents rushed in and an ambulance was immediately called. My mother was in terrible condition. She fell to the floor and cried so hard you could see every single blood vessel pop out of her neck. The screams she was letting out over and over again still haunt me to this day. They aren’t comparable to anything I’ve ever heard in my life. Even though the ambulance was on the way, I knew my brother was dead. It was obvious. I wasn’t going to give myself any sort of false hope that somehow magically he was going to just raise up and be okay. No. I knew he was gone no matter what. He was pronounced officially dead when the paramedics got there. My parents and I sat there in the living room. I don’t think a single word was said for two hours. We just sat there. Balling our eyes out and trying to figure out how we were ever going to recover mentally and emotionally. We were all confused. We were all really lost. We were broken and cold. I didn’t know if he was tired from staying up late and he didn’t want to tell me. I don’t know. I never will. But that’s what always made the most sense in my eyes. He just wanted to play the game with me all night. And that’s when I game. I stood up and walked into my bedroom to turn off everything that was left on. I walked over to the pause screen of Crash, and unpaused it. I couldn’t believe what I was staring at. The part of the game that Jack was on, contained water sections. It looks like he kept dying in the game so he paused it to see if he could beat it when he got out. The part he kept dying at was the water section. When I unpaused, Crash Bandicoot was dead in the water. Face down. I was horrified. I was so distraught that I started to literally puke and feel like I was going to pass out. I pulled the entire system out of the wall and all the cables in one pull and threw it across my room. That very second my childhood died metaphorically and literally. It was the worst day of my life. The following years were super rough on my family as you would imagine. Especially my mom, who fell into a very deep depression for many years. She didn’t smile for so long that I remember the very second she did the first time after Jack’s death. It was around three years. Three whole years I didn’t see that woman smile. Not even for photos. It was always the same, tired face and lifeless eyes. I dealt with my own problems that came with it all, too. Some are still a part of who I am today. Trying to avoid a cultural gaming icon as big as Crash Bandicoot in that timeframe was impossible. He was everywhere. I never saw a second of him without thinking about my brother instantly. A few years ago when the remastered trilogy was announced and released, all those memories came rushing at me at once again. I think about my brother everyday without it being ‘forced’ in my face to do so. The ads for the new remastered game seemed to be everywhere and it brought back long pushed aside forgotten feelings. I had zero interest in touching it. I missed the game. But god, do I also miss my brother. I made the decision to pick it up finally. The remaster has been out for like two years and I stayed as far away from it as I could. But I finally decided it was time. It downloaded and sat in my game library staring back at me for a few days before I finally grabbed a beer, sat down, and launched it up. I got very emotional. It’s silly to say in a lot of ways. In a lot of ways I should be over this and move on by now. But I couldn’t help but have tears roll down my face the second it started. I started to very slowly play the first level of the first game. It took a long time. I know there’s speed runs on games like this, and I can assure you that I have the slowest time ever booked in history. By the end of the third level I had to pause the game and walk away for a little bit. I grabbed another beer and slowly kept playing. I had fun. It took a while for me to not be an emotional wreck. But once I got past that, it was like I was a kid again. I’m proud of myself for finally doing it and I just wanted to brag about that for a second.
I love you guys. Abigail Williams (right), 13, and Liberty German (left), 14, were best friends from the small town of Delphi, Indiana. Abigail and Liberty, affectionately called Abby and Libby by their friends and families, met when they were in the sixth grade. As both girls shared common hobbies and interests, they found that they were in most of the same after school clubs and sports teams together. Naturally, the girls quickly became friends. Abby and Libby both enjoyed the outdoors, and often spent their time outside. They enjoyed outdoor activities, often going fishing, hiking, and biking. They also enjoyed the arts, both sharing a passion for photography. Whenever they were together, you can often find them outside, either playing sports or taking photos of eye-catching natural scenery. Impressively, both girls, at the young ages of 13 and 14, were ambitious, driven, and academically advanced. Both girls were interested in true crime, and expressed in an interest in criminology, forensic science, and law enforcement. Abby was an aspiring police officer, and Libby was an aspiring science teacher. Libby was currently enrolled in science courses at Purdue University in West Lafayette. In their case, the expression “opposites attract” rang true. Although the girls shared various similar interests, personality-wise, they were very different. Abby was known to be shy and quiet, whereas Libby was known to be more outgoing and forward. Libby was said to be the first to stand up for someone if they were being bullied or treated unfairly. Libby was also “the therapist” among her friend group, as she was the one her friends would turn to in times of need. February 13, 2017 Libby, and her older sister, then 16-year-old Kelsi, were in the primary care of their grandparents, Becky and Mike Patty. Abby, an only child, resided with her mother and beloved cat. Abby often spent time at Libby’s residence, and on the night of February 12, Abby had spent the night at Libby’s. The girls spent their day practicing softball in the yard, watching a movie, and creating a watercolor painting. Although the following morning was a Monday, the girls had a day off from school that day. It was one of two unused snow days that the school district, the Delphi Community School Corporation, was required to observe. The girls began their day by eating a special breakfast that Mike had prepared for them. Sometime during noon, Abby and Libby asked Kelsi if she could drop them off at the Mary Gerard Nature Preserve, the local hiking trail. According to Kelsi, the girls had asked her more than once if she would be able to drop them off at the trail about a week prior. Kelsi had refused to take them previously, but as she was going to pass the bridge that day while on her way to her boyfriend’s house, she had agreed to drop them off. When Libby had asked Becky for permission to go, Becky compromised that they could go as long as they were able to secure a ride back. Libby had secured a ride back with her father, Derrick German. As he was running errands for Becky that day, he told Libby that he would pick them up when he was done. Derrick estimated that that would be sometime about 3:00 PM. Kelsi dropped off Abby and Libby at 1:45 PM at the entrance of the Mary Gerard Nature Preserve. Kelsi stayed in her car and watched the girls proceed inside the trailhead until she couldn’t see them anymore. According to Kelsi, she didn’t see anyone or anything suspicious. According to the “Scene of the Crime: Delphi” podcast, the trails, which are typically well populated, are as wide and as flat as a small road. The trailhead connects several small parks with numerous access points, information stations, historic memorials, bike rental outlets, and parking spaces. The longest trail, the 1. 5 mile Monon High Bridge trail, is one of the more secluded trails in the trail system. Mostly familiar to locals, you can find hikers, bikers, joggers, and photographers traversing this trail. The trail runs between City Park at its western end, and the Monon High Bridge on its eastern end. The Monon High Bridge is an old, out of use, railroad bridge that was built in 1881. The bridge, at 64 feet, is the second highest bridge in Indiana, as well as the second longest at 845 feet. However, the bridge is not technically part of the trail, and visitors are not intended to cross. Due to its deteriorated conditions, the bridge is closed off with a metal red barrier to prevent people from crossing the bridge. The bridge, which has no safety barriers, is in a notable state of disrepair. One would have to tread very carefully and watch their footing to cross the bridge safely. Despite the fact that the bridge is closed off to visitors, local teenagers up to a dare or challenge often crossed the bridge. At 3:11 PM, Derrick sent a text to Libby that read he was on his way and would be there shortly. When Derrick arrived at the Mary Gerard entrance at 3:13, Abby and Libby weren’t at their arranged meeting point. After waiting two minutes with still no sign of the girls, Derrick called Libby’s phone. When she did not answer, Derrick proceeded to the trails to search for the girls. Derrick knew that the lack of response from Libby was unusual, as she knew to answer her phone when her family called her. At about 3:20, Derrick encountered Dan McCain, an older man who was enjoying a day out on the trails, and asked him if he had seen Abby or Libby. Dan had not seen either Abby or Libby, but told him he had seen a couple under the bridge. While still searching, at 3:30, Derrick called Becky and had wondered if there had been some miscommunication and Abby and Libby were already home. Becky had told him no, and Derrick expressed his concern for the girls as Libby was not answering her phone. Shortly after the phone call between Derrick and Becky ended, Becky contacted Abby and Libby’s friends and asked if any of them had seen or heard from the girls. None of them had. Becky then called Kelsi, who was at her boyfriend’s house, and asked if Libby had contacted her. Kelsi told Becky that she had not seen or heard from Libby since she had dropped her off. When Kelsi had heard that the girls were missing, she left her boyfriend’s house to meet her family at the trail. At 4:20, Becky called Mike at work. When he was told that Libby wasn’t answering their phone and they were going to meet at the trails to search for the girls, Mike promptly left work to assist. Just before Becky left the house, her son and Libby's uncle, Cody, had came in from work. Becky explained to him what was happening, and Cody decided to accompany her to the trails. Around 5 PM, Derrick, Becky, Kelsi, Mike, and Cody were all at the trail searching for Abby and Libby. The family went their separate ways calling out for Abby and Libby. Kelsi and Cody traversed the Monon High Bridge trail and crossed the bridge together. Kelsi had experience with crossing the bridge with Libby previously, though she was terrified. The first time Kelsi crossed the bridge, she actually had to crawl over to the other side because she felt too uneasy to cross by foot. When Kelsi and Cody reached the end of the bridge, rather than turning back, they proceeded down the hill at the end of the bridge. When describing this point in the search, Kelsi said, “Me and my uncle crossed the bridge and we were yelling down there. And I remember getting to the end of the bridge and and looking to the left and seeing [a disturbance in the ground] like somebody had fallen down the hill over there. I didn’t think anything of it - everybody goes down the hill. After taking my forensics classes, I should’ve taken a picture of it. There could have been like a footprint of something. ” At the bottom of the hill located at the eastern end of the bridge, there is a long driveway connecting several residences. Kelsi and Cody went as far as knocking on the doors of these residences with the intention of asking the property owners if they had seen Abby and Libby. However, only one person would answer, and as expected, they did not see Abby and Libby. Derrick continued to call Libby’s phone throughout the duration of the search. Several phone calls later, Libby’s phone eventually stopped ringing, and would take Derrick straight to voicemail. Becky attempted to track Libby’s phone through a “Find My Phone” app, but was unsuccessful, as Libby had reset her device about a week prior due to a glitch. Becky then called their service provider, AT&T, and asked if they would be able to track Libby’s device ? however this request would prove fruitless, as they were unable to assist. After an hour of searching to no avail, at approximately 5:20 PM, Mike contacted the police and reported Abby and Libby as missing. Realizing that Anna Williams, Abby’s mother, had not yet been notified of her daughter’s absence, Becky contacted her. When Anna failed to answer, Becky arrived at Anna’s workplace, a restaurant, and explained the details of the girls’ lack of response in person. Frustrated with her daughter’s presumed irresponsibility, Anna had yet to expect the worst. Anna, like Becky, believed that they simply have lost track of time, or wandered too far off and had gotten lost as a result. All Anna had in mind during this time was the stern talking-to she was going have to deliver to Abby when they were finally found. Authorities arrived on scene within a half hour after they were notified of the pair’s absence. In the beginning, nobody had suspected that the girls met with foul play. The family was questioned at the sheriff’s office. Kelsi was questioned more extensively as she was the last person to see the girls. When asked if Libby had posted on any social media platforms, Kelsi opened Snapchat, the app that she knew Libby used most frequently. On Snapchat were two crucial images that were uploaded to Libby’s Snapchat story. The first photo
