DELPHI, Ind. – The owner of the land where two Delphi girls were found murdered in February was sentenced to almost 4 years in prison on illegal driving charges. Ron Logan, age 77, pleaded guilty to being a habitual traffic violator and violating probation by getting behind the wheel of his truck after a judge told him not to drive following his most recent 2014 drunk driving arrest. Logan admitted to violating his probation and the court’s no-driving order with less than a month to go when he visited a county waste transfer station the day Libby German and Abby Williams were murdered, their bodies found on his property the next day, and two weeks later when he was spotted drinking a beer at a Tippacanoe County pizza restaurant. The lifelong Carroll County resident is not a suspect in the deaths. His trip to the dump occurred hours before the girls were dropped off for an afternoon hike along the Monon High Bridge Trail East of Delphi. Logan cooperated with detectives and reporters in the days after the bodies were found on his land and the notoriety may have played a role in community awareness of his driving in violation of the court’s orders. Between 2010 and 2014, Logan was arrested for drunk driving four times, resulting in three convictions.
