EXPOSED: Richard Allen Confessed to Crimes He Didn't Commit—While Declared "Gravely Disabled" | Delphi Update

Richard Allen confessed to molesting his sister. She says it never happened. He confessed to molesting his daughter. She denies it too. He said he shot Abby Williams and Libby German. They weren't shot—they were stabbed.And those are the confessions Indiana used to convict him of murder.According to the 113-page Appellant's Brief now before the Indiana Court of Appeals, Richard Allen's confessions came after five months in maximum-security solitary confinement—a placement that violated Indiana's own 30-day policy for mentally ill inmates. By the time he started confessing, state doctors had declared him "gravely disabled." He'd dropped from 180 to 135 pounds. He was eating his own feces, drinking toilet water, and couldn't remember confessing days after he did it.Before solitary, Allen never broke. Two interrogations. Hours of pressure. Detectives lying about evidence. His own wife brought in as leverage. His response stayed consistent: "I did not murder two little girls. I don't care how stressed out I get, I am not going to admit to something I had nothing to do with."Five months later, he was asking guards if he was already dead.The prosecution called these confessions "logical and organized." They presented them as the unburdening of a guilty soul. But the jury never heard the audio—Judge Gull ordered it muted. They never heard Allen screaming incoherently, rambling about World War III, saying "Rocky Balboa is my favorite actor."They got silence. They got the state's narrative. And Richard Allen got 130 years.Today we break down what these confessions actually looked like—and why the details Allen got wrong may matter more than anything he got right.#RichardAllenTrial #DelphiMurders #TrueCrimeNews #FalseConfessions #AbbyAndLibby #WrongfulConviction #DelphiUpdate #CriminalJustice #LibbyGerman #AbbyWilliamsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
