Bridgett Allen was 14 when she was killed in Louisville, Kentucky, in January 1990. According to her diary, she and a friend, 14-year-old Sherry Wilson, had been acquainted with Philip E. Cloftton and had been supplied with drugs and alcohol by him. The two girls visited Cloftton’s apartment on January 20, 1990, and investigators believe they were murdered there the following day when they returned.

A third teenage girl escaped from Cloftton and his accomplice James Ray Cable and later testified; that testimony played a key role in the investigation and the subsequent convictions. Cloftton and Cable were found guilty of the abductions, rapes, and murders of Bridgett Allen and Sherry Wilson. Both men received life sentences; Cable later died in prison in 2013 while awaiting another trial, and Cloftton was given life plus 300 years without the possibility of parole.

If anyone knew Bridgett, Sherry, or the circumstances around these events in Louisville, did they ever hear anything that might shed more light on what happened?
