But the question that everyone wants to know is does the prosecution have this strong evidence to wrap up this case?
Or is the prosecution going to trial with confessions(which might be real), eyewitness statements about placement on the trail at the time of the crime, and an unspent cartridge found at the crime scene that may have come from Richard Allen's gun?

The confessions of course came later, but those other pieces of testimony/evidence were contained in the AA, it's what LE used to give probable cause (which was granted). It's likely that they have a trove of additional evidence because guilty in the court of law exceeds PC and needs BARD.
We know a lot about where the Defense is trying yo go but very little about the Prosecution's case. Gag order and a very tight seal on leaks IMO.
The PC witnesses establish/corroborated the timeline. They may not be needed for trial if there is cell data places RA on the bridge....
LE has collected items from the home, his car, his clothing. We know about that from SWs but we don't know what was discovered. Statistical DNA matches, fabric/carpet/fiber analyses, human/animal hair comparisons. Even the popularity of cold case genetic genealogy might be in play.
Phones sink criminals, whether they carry them at the time or not. Telling black-out periods. Patterns of normal usage vs. usage anomalies.
RA's employment records. Did he have the day off? Did he leave work early? Where he was that morning, that evening.
Plus his whole digital footprint. ANY history of CSAM, any Google searches, and any connection to KAK and his online catfishing accounts.
The Prosecution is holding tight to the gag order.
They've got the goods on RA.
