00:01:10
don't give up [Music] we will not stop welcome to True Crime garage wherever you are whatever you are doing thanks
00:01:25
for listening we're doing things a little bit different this week as you all might have expected we were all
00:01:32
waiting holding our breath since last Friday morning because there was news that there was an arrest in the Delphi
00:01:39
double homicide case and they were going to have a press conference today which is Monday morning and they did hold that
00:01:48
press conference the captain watched it I watched it we watched it at separate locations I'm currently in a hotel in
00:01:57
the Greater Cleveland area hoping that the Browns will have a win tonight at Cleveland Browns Stadium on Halloween
00:02:06
night I'm looking for all the ghouls and ghosts to come out to help the Browns pull off the The Impossible and get a
00:02:13
victory but we're not here to talk about that more importantly we are here to talk about today is the day Friday was
00:02:20
the day as Doug Carter just told us literally about 30 minutes ago and so the captain and I are here to give an
00:02:29
update in the Delphi case and give a little bit of our perspective as we have it based off of what we've seen and
00:02:37
heard well like the colonel said he's in a hotel motel Holiday Inn the colonel is
00:02:43
currently working on a Case up in Cleveland I'm overseas working on a case as well more on that later just to go
00:02:52
through my day a little bit on Friday a little bit of a time difference when you're over in in England but it's
00:02:59
probably 9 00 a.m your time that I got a text message saying news coming out on Delphi
00:03:09
I ask when and what got no reply and I thought well maybe it's just going to be another we're asking for more
00:03:18
information or is this the day then I get followed up with another text message saying
00:03:25
big information coming out two seconds later I get one they made an arrest they arrested a man on Friday at
00:03:35
noon and charged him with two counts of murder now that wasn't confirmed by anybody
00:03:44
but that's what my sources were telling me and then it was I hope this is true because I've heard a lot of rumors from
00:03:53
different sources and I was so glad to find out that that was true and that obviously that was
00:04:00
confirmed in this press conference yeah that's what sets this aside from all of the other suspects that have been
00:04:07
speculated about in the past five and a half years is that he is actually arrested and being charged with double
00:04:14
homicide and with the murders of Libby and Abby so it's this is as case specific as it gets where other
00:04:22
individuals have been arrested on crimes unrelated or or what some were trying to piece
00:04:29
together and make leaps and and in hopes of okay perpetrator of this crime might
00:04:35
have also been the perpetrator of the Delphi homicides so this is the biggest news to come out in this case in five
00:04:42
and a half years you said noon on Friday yeah I was you know I was getting some stuff around nine in the nine o'clock
00:04:49
hour Friday morning from some different people I'm kind of piecing some things together and and I'll speak candidly but
00:04:58
I also want to make sure that everyone knows that some of the things that I'm going to say here today in reaction to
00:05:06
this arrest is not a concrete information but some some information that I've heard from what I deem to be
00:05:15
and believe to be some pretty legit sources but again not 100 concrete so arrested at noon it's a little wonky on
00:05:25
the actual timeline of this guy it sounds like this Richard Allen was may have been formally charged at that time
00:05:34
on Friday the other pieces of information that I was have been told is that that he may have actually been
00:05:41
detained at some point earlier in the week right what was coming out on Friday was that he was moved to a state
00:05:48
facility to for his own safety which which a couple things here that you think about
00:05:54
like I know everybody enjoyed the dramatization of the Dahmer story that was big on Netflix everybody tuned into
00:06:03
that I I thought the portrayal of Dahmer being murdered was a little was a little off it it seems to be
00:06:11
pretty much factual as they present it but I've reviewed interviews with the guy that killed Dahmer and and at least
00:06:18
on one occasion I believe in two different interviews by different people he actually said that he did part of
00:06:25
part of the reason for the murder for him to kill Jeffrey Dahmer was for the notoriety Jeffrey Dahmer was the most
00:06:31
famous person in that prison and if you killed the most famous person in that prison boom you become the most famous
00:06:37
or inFAMOUS person in that prison and so with this Richard Allen age 50 of Delphi
00:06:44
Indiana local guy he's arrested and they say that he's being moved to a state facility for his own protection or his
00:06:53
own personal safety that tells me we're probably thinking about one of of three things that of level of concern that you
00:07:00
would have if you are in Corrections and if you are charged with apprehending this guy and keeping him in custody you
00:07:08
know part of your your job is to keep him safe so that he can face a trial he could be on suicide watch
00:07:14
they could be concerned that another person in the jail that's being detained as well might want
00:07:24
to harm him for any number of reasons if not kill him or and this is going to sound wild too but you'll understand it
00:07:33
because the the level of this case is is through the roof and the emotions involved in this case through the roof
00:07:41
right you could even be talking about it worried that maybe a deputy or somebody working at the facility that
00:07:49
he once was at might want to go after this guy for any number of reasons well let's just go through a breakdown real
00:07:57
quick of the press conference it was very short of course they opened it up for questions at the end and knowingly
00:08:05
they're going to ask a lot of questions that law enforcement can't answer but what they confirmed is Richard Allen
00:08:13
age 50 is charged with two counts of murder that's in the state of Indiana they do have the have the death penalty
00:08:21
so that would be on the table possibly they also wanted to remind everybody that Richard Allen is innocent until
00:08:29
proven guilty and they have sealed all the probable cause and basically their arrest information and the tips that
00:08:39
lead to that information I think they possibly did that for maybe a safety of it individual they didn't lead to any
00:08:48
speculation on if they thought somebody else was involved or if Richard Allen was singlely responsible for the murders
00:08:57
but they also wanted to let us know that they're going to continue to take tips on Richard Allen anything about the
00:09:05
crime or any other individual I think people are going to jump to speculation that there's more people involved and I
00:09:12
think that's okay because I think law enforcement is welcoming any tips to come in I think that's smart on their
00:09:20
part to keep the tip line open but toe blessenby also said now we move forward in the process what me and the
00:09:29
colonel were saying off record is this is a step in the right direction to get Justice for the family and the victims
00:09:37
you need to not only make an arrest and charge the individual but you need to have him found guilty in
00:09:45
a court of law right and we've talked about this on our show many times when you speak with a really good seasoned
00:09:52
detective one that's been at the job on the job for a long time and had success clearing cases in their time in
00:10:01
their career they will all tell you the same thing and and this is this is the first thing that I can tell separates a
00:10:08
good detective we always we talk about it there's good there are people that are good at their jobs and people that
00:10:13
are bad at their jobs and unfortunately they are in every line of work across this great country you know there's good
00:10:19
doctors there's bad doctors there's good school bus drivers bad school bus drivers there's everybody and same with
00:10:26
detectives but the first thing that separates the good ones from the from the not so great ones to me is this
00:10:33
statement right here all of the good ones say the same thing when you are investigating a case the number one
00:10:38
thing you need to be concerned about is Will that my actions as a detective on this
00:10:46
case do not change the potential outcome in this case meaning that my actions will not screw up any of the legalities
00:10:55
or any of the stuff that's going to have to go through the courts to get a conviction here and so what what the
00:11:02
prosecutor and what doug Carter the superintendent for the Indiana State Police and toe blessenby the sheriff of
00:11:09
Carroll County what they are reminding all of us is it look yes we have a lot more information here are we going to
00:11:17
give it to you today no we are working to secure a conviction here in this case and make sure that nothing gets tossed
00:11:26
out of court because we made a misstep somewhere along the line this guy as the captain rightfully pointed out Richard
00:11:34
Allen is presumed innocent until he's found guilty in a court of law some some interesting notes though here and some
00:11:44
things that I think people might want to speculate about Richard Allen very common name his name his full name is
00:11:52
Richard Matthew Allen he's age 50 like the captain said from Delphi Indiana local guy we we are aware of his address
00:12:01
a lot of people are interested in what his address is I don't think that it would be
00:12:06
responsible for us to give that out if if somebody wants that on their conscience fine you can find it we're
00:12:13
choosing not to give it out because of a couple of reasons we don't know what led
00:12:19
police to Richard Allen that was not made clear they didn't discuss that during the press conference they gave a
00:12:29
polite answer a couple times when when reporters were trying to get into what led them to this individual it
00:12:37
seems very likely given his proximity where his residence is to the monin High Bridge he lives about 1.6 miles from the
00:12:48
crime scene so it would seem that he was likely interviewed or somebody close to
00:12:53
him was interviewed probably early on in this investigative process I don't think
00:12:59
it's a great idea to release his his address for a couple reasons we don't know who else may be still at that
00:13:07
address and they very likely they may not have anything to do with this crime at all not only that they may be the
00:13:14
person responsible for turning him in or a neighbor could be somebody that helped
00:13:19
investigators or detectives with this investigation so we don't want to put anybody into scrutiny or potential
00:13:25
Harm's Way because they could be one of us they could be one of the good guys and speaking of the good guys
00:13:31
interestingly enough enough let's not forget there's a huge reward in this case so at some point
00:13:41
I'm guessing they're going to have to announce to the public or how they're going to
00:13:47
allocate those funds and who they're going to go to and and why they would be receiving them yeah a couple things
00:13:54
about Richard that we have learned is that he worked at CVS like the colonel said about a mile and a half so maybe a
00:14:02
15 to 20 minute walk from the crime scene there's been a lot of pictures of this individual
00:14:09
shared online I would say just off the top of my head when I see pictures of this individual
00:14:16
and you see its height I've also seen videos of how he walks his gate that looks very similar to bridge guy matches
00:14:24
the description pretty much to a t again lived in the vicinity it's not clear to
00:14:31
me but it seems and again this is just some speculation and some of this information that we're talking about
00:14:39
we'd like to confirm our information before we put it out to the public but what I'm hearing from everybody and what
00:14:47
I can somewhat confirm is that he is married and then there's been other pictures of him shared where he's at a
00:14:54
party and in the background you see a sketch of young Bridge guy but anybody that's been to Delphi would know
00:15:03
that those pictures are everywhere so this guy Richard Allen living in this community for the last however many
00:15:13
years he's been there but since they started putting up these posters he's been walking by hundreds of these
00:15:20
posters every single day a lot of people have shared pictures of Richard Allen With Us online other people have asked
00:15:29
us to share those pictures you have to remember that the family back in the day and law enforcement asked to stop
00:15:37
sharing side by sides I know this is a little different because he's not charged with some other crime and people
00:15:43
are seeing that if he's linked that he is charged with the murders of Abby and Libby we're going to respect law
00:15:50
enforcement's wishes and respect the family's wishes and not share those photos on social media yeah and like
00:15:58
just like with the address it's information that if you want to dig deep enough it's not hard to find a
00:16:06
picture of this individual it's just not not going to be part of our coverage for now on on the case and I
00:16:15
want to say not that I think that the family is listening but if they were listening we met them a
00:16:20
long time ago at crime con this case has been very personal to us we covered this case it was the probably
00:16:27
the first case that we ever covered that we really knew little to no information
00:16:32
but felt that it was very important to try to use our platform to get people talking about this case and sharing
00:16:39
information in this case especially because of the internet they've received thousands of tips
00:16:48
because of people working hard to try to solve a case because people felt connected to this case and one of the
00:16:55
reasons I think we all felt connected to this case is because of the family the family you could see the pain on their
00:17:04
faces and they still have a long way to go in this process but you know our thoughts are with them and we have a lot
00:17:12
of respect for the family and what they're going through and please be very supportive of them online as well look
00:17:21
this arrest does not make things any easier for the family and what they're dealing with it it's certainly a
00:17:30
step in the right direction of course but this isn't like Little Red Riding Hood
00:17:37
when the it was at The Woodsman gets the wolf and and kills the wolf and cuts them open and Little Red Riding the
00:17:46
little girl comes back that's that's how it works in fairy tales I wish that that's how it worked here I I wish that
00:17:54
that was even a possibility yes just take it easy on the families and don't bombard them for information they may
00:18:02
not have much more information than we have they certainly ain't going to talk even if they do because they're they are
00:18:09
locked in step with ISP with the prosecutor's office with Carroll County Sheriff's Department they want to secure
00:18:18
a conviction and make sure that all the t's are crossed and all the eyes are dotted properly and that we don't we
00:18:27
don't do anything to screw this up now I've talked about some things that I think people might speculate about maybe
00:18:32
we can address a couple of those again we don't have definitive answers on some of these but wanted to address some
00:18:39
things at the early part of the press conference it was stated that Indiana State Police where it's there the
00:18:45
Carroll County Sheriff's Office was present and the prosecutor's office and and as we saw we had the prosecutor
00:18:51
tobles and be the sheriff and Doug Carter the superintendent all spoke at the press conference one other agency
00:18:59
that was there was the U.S Marshals I to me that doesn't indicate that they are still actively looking for somebody or
00:19:06
actively looking for somebody in another state I would expect the U.S Marshals to
00:19:10
be there and to have been part of this investigation keep in mind within days of the double homicide there were
00:19:18
digital Billboards in 46 States in this great country looking for this man and looking for the perpetrator of this
00:19:27
these crimes so they have been involved from Jump Street so it would be it would
00:19:33
be more weird if they weren't there in my opinion I do love that they are still encouraging more tips to come in and
00:19:40
they are recommending using the same avenues that they've already set up that people have been using previously to
00:19:47
continue um that remember they would prefer to receive an email tip tip in the form of
00:19:54
an email that way there is written record of your tip and of the information that you submit as the
00:20:01
captain pointed out the probable cause affidavit will be sealed the charging information will be sealed as well now
00:20:08
one thing that I heard at the end of the press conference when they went to reporters for questions was one reporter
00:20:15
said that the the proper cause affidavit and the charging information would be sealed for 30 days right and the
00:20:23
prosecutor's answer did not shoot that down that it was 30 days but he did state that there would be a public forum
00:20:32
a public meeting at some point to discuss and determine if they will be sealing those documents further or if
00:20:42
they're going to unseal them so I didn't pick up on a date of when that will be decided I'm guessing it's 30 days from
00:20:50
October 28th and not to try to correct your or anything but I believe he said there would actually be a hearing on
00:21:00
that right the hearing is what I meant to say um but what I'm saying is I don't think he gave a date for when that
00:21:06
public hearing would be you're correct some other information here the trial date he he stated
00:21:14
and I I wrote this down rather quickly I hope I have it right would be is currently scheduled for March 20th 2023
00:21:22
remember the reward money was a 225 000 or in that General amount and I'm sure we'll find out more
00:21:32
about what's going to be done with that reward money um they were specifically asked about
00:21:40
the clients how do the clients fit into all this uh if they do at all they said they would not comment on the clients at
00:21:47
this time uh one thing that I was not able to do here Captain is it it may not have come out we were hitting record
00:21:56
short very shortly after the press conference ended and they stated that there would be written information that
00:22:03
would be on the I believe they said the Indiana State police's Facebook page and
00:22:09
I went looking for that shortly after the press conference ended and either couldn't find it or it had not been
00:22:16
posted at the time before we hit record a lot more discussion about the Delphi murder press conference after this quick

00:24:34
foreign [Music] we are back again hotel motel Holiday Inn both the colonel and the captain were
00:24:49
both traveling we're on separate sides of the world but we we felt obligated to share with you the information of this
00:24:58
press conference and to share our thoughts on it as well yes and one thing too um that we won't really get into but
00:25:08
while we have the opportunity to address another uh case and some of you have been keeping an eye on this and know
00:25:16
that Nancy eagleson who we discussed we did a four-part story on her case earlier this year and we were raising
00:25:25
money porchlight was raising money to exhume her body she was unfortunately abducted and killed 62 years ago that
00:25:33
exclamation happened last week and it was I've been asked to to keep everything very brief on the update
00:25:42
because there should be some more information coming out either this week or next week but overall the opinion is
00:25:51
and that we are after the exhumation took place we are all still very hopeful and have reason to be hopeful that we
00:26:01
could find some evidence that could finally lead to solving her Cold Case homicide
00:26:09
so obviously we saw a lot of different individuals of law enforcement talk Doug Carter has been the main spokesperson he
00:26:19
could you obviously could hear and see the emotion in him and I think it was also nice because they weren't sending
00:26:27
their patting themselves on the back they were being very respectful to the process I think respectful to the family
00:26:35
and to the public again they're going to get criticism because it took five years but like you
00:26:42
just said there's there's a case that we covered that's been unsolved for 60 plus years
00:26:50
and so the fact that we could get a result in this case is is a great thing and I'm very hopeful
00:26:58
that they'll be able to do and be respectful of the work again trying to seal off those records because
00:27:06
they think that could hurt their case is is very smart in doing their due diligence and we live in a day
00:27:15
where there's a lot of people that do jobs and don't do them well and I do want to applaud them a little bit
00:27:22
because I want to say these guys as much as you think that you're invested in this case and I know that
00:27:30
the colonel and and I have spent hours and hours on the phone with people receiving tips ourselves through our
00:27:38
blog or through our emails and spending hours to explain to those people you sharing the tip with me only does so
00:27:47
much you need to share this tip with law enforcement and I probably spent hundreds of hours on Delphi alone just
00:27:54
replying to people saying that information seems important and you need to share it with the right sources
00:28:00
sharing that with a podcast host is not going to get in an arrest yeah if if you
00:28:06
have some information and you've already approached law enforcement and it doesn't just go for Delphi because we we
00:28:12
experience this with a lot of Unsolved cases not all of them but some we do get tipsters come to us with information
00:28:20
local people sometimes it's it it seems very interesting other times not gonna lie there's you know you're
00:28:30
going to get a few crazy things set your your way once in a while um and we've certainly received our fair
00:28:37
share of that but the only time I think that it's beneficial for a tipster to approach somebody like us or somebody
00:28:46
that's in more mainstream portions of the media is if you have gone to law enforcement and you don't for whatever
00:28:55
reason you don't think that they're doing anything with the information that you you gave them sometimes the the
00:29:01
media can be a good checks and balances for a lot of different lines of work out
00:29:07
there and professions out there and it's with this case one could certainly easily understand that a tip could slip
00:29:17
through the cracks I mean we're talking at one point I think they reported having received over 40
00:29:23
000 forms of communication from the public that was a several years ago that I remember reading that number so who
00:29:31
knows what that number even totals to and when you receive that much information from the public again
00:29:36
probably these are all people that are trying and hoping to help in some way but probably a good I would I would bet
00:29:45
the farm that a large percentage of those tips are turns out to be nothing not saying that they shouldn't have
00:29:50
phoned it in or should not have emailed it they are looking for a needle and a haystack amongst those tips running down
00:29:59
leads and checking into different things and some of them carry more weight than
00:30:03
others and I think they're very smart to point out to the public to remind the public and one to recognize themselves
00:30:10
and and understand themselves yes they've put a lot of work into this there's been a lot of good people
00:30:16
involved in a lot of people that have worked very hard on this case but it's it's great to see that they understand
00:30:23
that the work is not over that the job is not done yet yet and we don't know exactly what other avenues will be
00:30:32
pursued throughout the course of this investigation yeah and when Doug Carter said look we're going to add more
00:30:40
resources and add to this team because again the work is not over now a couple things a couple things I'd like
00:30:48
to share on the podcast so I don't have to answer it a thousand more times the number one question that I have received
00:30:55
was was Richard Allen on my radar the answer to that is he was not was he on anybody's radar
00:31:04
I'm not for sure but what I do know is I did receive a list and this was years ago one of the lists was possible cell
00:31:13
phone pings when they happen where they happen and who the cell phone belonged to and that that list was obviously a
00:31:22
list created by somebody possibly in law enforcement and obviously everybody on that list would be a person of interest
00:31:31
that law enforcement would want to talk I can tell you where that list came from
00:31:36
um it it came from the original prosecutor the prosecutor's office uh I believe it was Ives at the time he his
00:31:46
is his first name Richard I can't remember now everybody Richard Allen who know so maybe maybe we don't say that
00:31:53
but the prosecutor Ives at the time is on record stating that his office submitted many subpoenas to do what is
00:32:03
in short called a data dump and basically they were looking for anybody whose cell phone pinged in the area of
00:32:12
the monin High Bridge and his statement I believe was within a five mile radius of the Monet High Bridge during the time
00:32:20
of the homicides uh uh and in a little bit of my own speculation here my guess would be that they probably wanted to
00:32:28
know from about 1 30 in the afternoon to maybe five six o'clock in the evening let's do a data dump and submit the
00:32:36
subpoenas to to get this information yes they're on record having done that and and getting the information which would
00:32:44
have created a list of individuals whose phones pinged in the area of the monin High Bridge on the
00:32:54
day that the girls went missing and later unfortunately we find out that they were killed on that day so yes his
00:33:01
name just just with his residence being within that five mile radius would put him on on that list
00:33:09
um and I think you were saying that he might have been on another list as well is that correct yeah so the other list
00:33:14
that I had from years ago was a list of every male or supposedly every male between a certain age to a certain age
00:33:25
that lived within a certain radius of the crime scene which like we've stated before he lived about a mile and a half
00:33:32
from the crime scene so that would obviously put him on the list was it the age I think there were of of what they
00:33:39
were looking for when they put out these the potential suspect information I would assume so but I can't confirm that
00:33:45
so so it was just a list that when people would present you know I'd be at crime
00:33:51
con and people would pull out their phone and say look at this guy don't you think he looks like Bridge guy and I'd
00:33:57
be like well who is he well he's this ice cream truck worker from California I'm like was he tied to Indiana
00:34:06
well I don't know but should I turn it in and I'm like let's figure out a a link to him in in the state of Indiana
00:34:15
for for starters right yeah and those are the ones that I think are irresponsible look I know again it all
00:34:23
circles back to the the majority of these people even the person showing you a picture of some
00:34:29
ice cream man from California the majority of these people are just people that they're they want to help right
00:34:36
they see Lydia and Addie's picture their heart breaks for the families they just
00:34:41
want to help in any way at all because we're all sick to our stomachs about this case with with these murders with
00:34:52
whatever happened and whoever did it it's just it feels like one of the most wrong things that has happened in such a
00:34:59
long time um that we're we're all very emotional about it you know earlier you had said
00:35:06
fits to a T and and I get what you're saying but I think it's also kind of all relative
00:35:12
right like there's been he's not the first person that people have looked at and gone that looks just like bridge at
00:35:20
the end of the day we just don't have that great of a picture of bridge guy and our our own imaginations have filled
00:35:27
in some of those blanks along the way uh some of those question marks but but what I meant is if you look at his the
00:35:34
picture of Richard Allen you look at his yeah demeanor yeah and the and when they back
00:35:42
in the day when they actually had a height for him and a weight for him you look at those pictures and go okay I can
00:35:49
see this individual fitting in it's not like they arrested a guy that's six eight and four hundred pounds and you're
00:35:56
going well that doesn't make any sense and this case is going to be I think very fascinating moving forward because
00:36:03
we do have video footage of this individual we do have audio and maybe some more audio data of this individual
00:36:13
and I say of this individual because again Richard Allen is innocent until proven guilty so I don't want to say
00:36:20
that we have video footage of him until they're able to actually prove that well
00:36:25
and the thing here too so a little bit more information on Richard Matthew Allen I he has a weapon permit
00:36:34
from 2009 my guess is this is probably a conceal and carry permit I can't confirm that I can
00:36:44
confirm 100 that he did obtain a weapons permit a weapon permit in 2009 I'm I'm still checking on uh some information to
00:36:53
see if it is in fact the conceal and carry you know Captain My Mind it jumped immediately to BTK as I'm
00:37:06
watching and trying to digest the information in this press conference then the reason being for for a couple
00:37:13
of reasons you know I talked about earlier I don't know we don't know who that reward money will go to if it will
00:37:18
go to anybody we don't know what put this dude on the police radar and everything I'm
00:37:25
seeing and hearing sounds like it was a bit of a Twist or a turn or that this guy once they latch
00:37:32
onto him they move rather quickly and we've certainly not seen his name or likeness presented at any time before
00:37:39
last week in this five and a half years of the case and we've seen a lot of people's
00:37:44
names and likenesses handcuffed to this this case along the way the reason why my mind kind of went to BTK is
00:37:54
remember BTK his wife you know they had a recording of Dennis Rader calling in one of the crime scenes or calling in
00:38:02
something that he left flew for the for the investigators and he and his wife were watching the news together and his
00:38:09
wife said to him very kind of casually oh you know you sound like BTK or oh BTK sounds right a lot like you
00:38:18
and they probably looked at each other and laughed it off at the time and went on about their lives you know Dennis
00:38:24
Rader knowing the whole time that he was in fact BTK you have to wonder this dude's voice down the hill guys down the
00:38:31
hills been all over the news especially Indiana news for for all of this time you'll wonder was there was a wife or
00:38:39
somebody close to this guy at any time did they ever say you know you sound a lot like
00:38:46
that bridge guy that they're looking for well if it if you think it's okay I would like to share a rumor and I will
00:38:55
and I will leave out certain details so it's a vague rumor of what I have heard that possibly could have happened I
00:39:03
you're asking for permission but I don't know what you're going to say of course
00:39:06
go ahead right okay okay well I'll say then we'll we'll cut it out later if you if if you don't
00:39:13
think so but from what I've heard from several sources is that there was somebody close
00:39:19
that had some suspicions and maybe looked into certain things and that maybe they found something they
00:39:27
confirmed it for that that confirmed it to them and they went to law enforcement
00:39:33
but if I'm not mistaken and correct me if I'm wrong here it made it sound like they charged Richard Allen
00:39:41
and that he pled not guilty well yeah I I've not seen anything but I'm you know to hold him
00:39:51
for any length of time he would have to have a I'm guessing that that he I I don't know how public that is and I
00:39:59
don't know if how if it was an actual official not guilty plea um what I'm wondering is if if his
00:40:09
lawyer if he lawyered up and the lawyer has expressed look he he intends to to take this to trial and to plead not
00:40:18
guilty because I would imagine we're going to have cameras or the news will be all over
00:40:25
um well and I say that because preliminary hearing or or whatever you know a more official uh Court setting
00:40:33
and I'm saying that because in my notes of the press conference which I have you know chicken scratch trying to write
00:40:42
down as much information I have the sentence he is entering a plea of not guilty
00:40:49
and I think that came from the prosecutor so I'm guessing what he said was we charged him with two counts of
00:40:58
murder and he's entering a plead of not guilty but I look I just thought the law
00:41:06
enforcement overall was very respectful I know that they're keeping things close
00:41:11
to the vest I think that's out of respect for the victims and the victims families
00:41:17
and then on top of that like we said with crime it's not Richard Allen had friends and family as well and I know
00:41:24
he's had some friends come online and say that he is not capable of a of this murder and maybe that's the Richard
00:41:31
Allen they know and maybe through this trial they'll learn about a different Richard Allen that they never knew but
00:41:41
his friends and his family and that Community they're all victims yeah and uh this is pure speculation
00:41:52
but I just wonder you know we knew all along or a lot of us would believe that bridge guy likely had a family you
00:42:02
know Doug Carter even said it himself at one of the press conferences likely has
00:42:05
family and I am of the belief to commit crimes like these buried within the person
00:42:16
responsible he has a hate for likely women girls females in general or mankind I don't know how long those individuals
00:42:33
can keep that side of them from not showing especially to people closest to them
00:42:39
and we've seen it in other cases Captain where oh a person is a suspect in the case
00:42:46
because they had the means motive and well the means an opportunity anyway uh question on question mark on the
00:42:54
motive but we've seen in other cases where somebody somebody says something to a a person in a domestic situation
00:43:02
maybe even a domestic violence situation that they have done something or that they are capable of harming you person
00:43:11
because they've harmed people in the past and so yeah we don't know what has led
00:43:19
to this individual or or or if it was a tip that helped law enforcement we we do need to make sure
00:43:28
we put out a good healthy reminder here to everybody that the police they did say hey we are still requesting
00:43:36
information from the public and we are still requesting information from the public that that is about
00:43:43
Richard Matthew Allen and also that is not about Richard Matthew Allen and so any information that you have that you
00:43:51
may that you think is in some way related to these two homicides still reach out to police and don't just
00:44:03
dismiss it because your information does not have Richard Matthew Allen's name attached to it give that information to
00:44:11
police and I'm really curious here now too now that we have a person named a person that's been officially charged
00:44:19
with these two victims murders will their be people that are able to connect the dots on some things that they
00:44:26
weren't so sure of five and a half years ago or three years ago or two years ago
00:44:32
that will be coming forward and again the public wants to help police here in this case and I think we'll continue to
00:44:39
see that Trend but the proper way to help police you know police still ask anyone with information to submit a tip
00:44:48
at Abby and Libby tip at c-a-c-o-s-h-r-f.com or by calling 765-822-3535 we'll put that as always
00:45:03
we'll put that information in the show notes for today but again they would prefer an emailed tip and the email tip
00:45:12
line is well I say tip line that shows my age right the the email tip is Abby and Libby tip at c-a-c-o-s-h
00:45:23
rf.com anything else here Captain I know that they didn't really give us a whole
00:45:28
lot I think that we're probably going to be learning a lot in the next few days as the local news outlets start doing
00:45:38
their digging and and start releasing information that they uncover along the way it will be curious to find out when
00:45:47
a potential court hearing will be to determine if these documents remain sealed or if they will be unsealed and
00:45:56
released to the public and also we got that 30 days which I I think you're correct here probably goes
00:46:04
sealed 30 days for sure from October 28th unless we hear otherwise yeah again thoughts are just with law enforcement
00:46:13
to continue to do the right thing and continue to do their due diligence take this case very serious let's get the
00:46:21
correct verdict where this is far from over it's far from over for the family and if you want to show some love and
00:46:28
support to the family you can visit Abby and libby.org yeah they're still raising
00:46:33
money for that beautiful Park that they've built and Memorial to these young girls who were both look did we
00:46:41
know Libby and Abby no and unfortunately we won't get that opportunity and they both look like they were
00:46:48
just wonderful little girls that's that's all they were that's all they were trying to be was wonderful little
00:46:54
girls and best friends and they were very active in their schools and communities and I think a Memorial Park
00:47:01
is one of the best ways that you could honor their lives and and their in the community and their families and
00:47:12
it's a beautiful Park it's a very active park with active with sports and events
00:47:17
uh public events but you know what they still want to continue to add to that and make it even more beautiful and that
00:47:24
is one way that you know if you are at home and you're just going man man I wish I could do something well that's
00:47:31
something that you can do right you can all we can all pitch in and uh help help Delphi to try to heal this might be
00:47:42
this might be one of the very first I know it's been five and a half years but this might be one of the very first
00:47:48
stepping stones and starting that healing process and let's let's help this community heal and and and show our
00:47:58
you know show Delphi love and the families love and respect and show them that Community does not end at the City
00:48:08
Line Community goes on and on and on and we are all just one big Community trying to
00:48:14
