Delphi Murders Convict Richard Allen Transferred Oklahoma Prison

Richard Allen, convicted for the 2017 murders of Abigail Williams and Liberty German in Delphi, Indiana, has been transferred from the Pendleton Correctional Facility in Indiana to the Lexington Assessment and Reception Center in Cleveland County, Oklahoma. Allen was sentenced in December 2024 to 130 years in prison for the killings. The reasons for Allen's transfer to an out-of-state facility remain unknown. His legal team is currently working to appeal his conviction. The case involved contentious legal battles over evidence and defense representation, including disputes that reached the Indiana Supreme Court. Key evidence included surveillance footage and ballistic analysis linking Allen's gun to an unfired cartridge found near the victims, though the defense challenged the reliability of this forensic evidence.
