Richard Allen, charged with the 2017 murders of two teenage girls in Delphi, has reportedly confessed over 60 times to the killings while incarcerated. During a recent court hearing, prosecution witnesses, including a former prison warden, testified about these confessions, which Allen allegedly made to various individuals, including his wife and fellow inmates. His defense team is seeking to suppress these statements, arguing that Allen's mental health has severely deteriorated due to harsh prison conditions, which may have influenced his confessions. Testimony from a prison psychologist highlighted that Allen displayed signs of 'grave mental illness' and was subjected to isolation and harassment. The case, marked by delays and controversies, is set for trial in October, with Allen facing four murder counts. Despite the confessions, the defense maintains that a group of local Odinists may be responsible for the murders.
