It will be interesting to see where the DT goes from here.

Search Warrant stands.
Confessions are in.
SODDI (Odinism Theory) is out.

What’s next?

that whole basket full of eggs DT has been trying to sell has just been scrambled. Now what? I am very curious to see if there is or ever was a plan B. I feel they overplayed plan A to the point where plan B better be a darn good one.

I am so happy for this massive step forward. Here’s a massive step closer to justice for Libby and Abby.

It shows you how poor RA’s lawyers have been so far that they are sinking their client before getting to trial

A shame they were reinstated as he likely stood a better chance without them.

MOO

IMO, they will try again to get the judge thrown off the trial. They seem to like that option.

I agree. It seems they were hanging their hat on the whole Odinism angle.

They were like a pitbull with a bone as they wouldn’t give up.

TBH I don’t think they have a Plan B.

I guess we shall find out soon enough.

I expect either a continuance to regroup or a change of plea.

MOO

It won’t work as they have tried before and failed.

Delphi suspect's defense thrown into chaos as judge blocks 'cult ritual' theory

THE JUDGE in Richard Allen’s murder trial has denied his team from using odinism as a motive behind the brutal killings. Richard Allen, 51, was arrested and charged with the murders of Libert…

I am surprised KAK wasn't allowed, but the Judge does have a lot of discretion in this.

I'd honestly be surprised if they did have a plan B. They have been throwing everything at this wild, pretrial offensive with conspiracies and Odinism and ritual killing, so many motions, for months and months and months, and I have been wondering, since the first Franks dropped and every shoe that's dropped since then - when are they actually devoting time preparing for trial? They can't keep this up forever, at some point, there will be a trial (unless the defendant takes a plea), and are they actually ready? Have they prepared a strategy that they can present in front of a jury?

I know how I feel about RA's guilt or innocence, but that is a completely separate issue to how I feel about his right to a competent defense. He has these defenders who just spent all this time betting on getting the case thrown out on a technicality, or derailed by bamboozling the jury with stories of sacrifices and cult ritual.

And so I wonder, for the sake of the defendant getting a fair trial with competent, vigorous defense - what IS plan B?

MOO

 

[Salah11]

Basically, the defence have nothing now, as they were like a dog with a bone with the "Odins did it". So now, there are no Odins, RL or Klines.

What a fantastic day it is towards justice

I think he had a alibi for the time of the crime as well?

Now that the judge has declared the defendant is not allowed present a defense, how long will the trial last? 2 days?

IMO MOO

A good defense always has multiple contingency plans for trial.

If RA's team are worth anything as lawyers, they will have a plan B. They would have known that their first approach was risky and unlikely to make it to the court room, and should have planned an alternative.

Don’t blame the judge for them being awful lawyers and not having any proof of what they were claiming. MS said from the get-go they didn't meet the burden of proof needed. So that's their failure, not Judge Gulls.
