Maybe they were concerned he would start to try to eat his own poo again?!



His behaviour seems quite unpredictable and could be a danger to others and himself. So it’s better for all involved to make sure he isn't able to hurt himself or others.

IMO

Q So he wasn’t a threat to anybody, was he?
A There was some noncompliance, but not a threat, no.

Shackling RA in such a way, could in no way prevent him from harming himself if he was determined to do so. MOO

 
Really? Shackling him in such a way that he is unable to sign papers or even shake Lebrato’s hand? How exactly does that protect him from other inmates that “want the honour killing of him?” Giving IDOC a “C” is being rather generous, IMHO.

Are you questioning whether it was RA who signed this letter?

“Lebrato is referencing a typed letter dated October 11, 2023, given to Special Judge Fran Gull. It was signed by Richard Allen and urged Gull not to take action against his appointed public defenders, Rozzi and Baldwin……

“He didn’t write the letter. Mr. Rozzi prepared the letter and had Mr. Allen sign. It is my understanding. It was typed. And I’m assuming Mr. Allen doesn’t have access to a computer or a typewriter in the Department of Corrections,”

I was just quoting what Lebrato said about his experience with RA when he and Scremin came on board. I’m not questioning who signed that letter. Obviously, it was drafted by his defense, R & B, after Gull disqualified them (without a hearing) and RA signed it. All MOO
 
“Lebrato says he’s handled 75-100 murder cases and taken 35-50 of them to trial, including several death penalty cases, but in his 25-year career, he’s never seen a pre-trial defendant treated as harshly as Richard Allen.”

Seems to me, from everything we've discussed here, RA treated himself pretty harshly. From Harshman's testimony it seems, to me, his family also treated him quite harshly when he wanted to confess and save his soul to get to heaven.

We've also heard after a fashion RA's attitude improved. In the long run keeping RA away from other general population prisoners and under 24/7 surveillance kept him alive. If he'd been in a County jail and had the mental and spiritual issues there, it may have been a much worse outcome...less security, less mental health available. All just my opinion but what would be said if he'd managed to end his life because of that? I believe he was where he needed to be under the circumstances. JMO

They definitely misrepresented the crime scene, that’s for sure. I think this serves as an excellent example of how the Franks motions are not affidavits and they can definitely stretch the truth and facts to fit their desired end state.

Exactly! I just read the testimony from the blood expert and he said Abby was clothed when the fatal injury was inflicted BECAUSE there was no blood on the clothing.. I mean how can you put a sweatshirt on someone that was cut in such a way that they died and then NOT get blood on it?? I am glad we can read the transcripts to see the actual FACTS and not the defense analysis of things. So many have said they can't lie, yet here we are... what is that they are saying that she was naked when killed then redressed yet the actual expert in this said the exact opposite.

Oh and the murderers went to great lengths to keep from getting blood on Abby.. how about HE (singular) inflicted the fatal wound while she was laying down and then she couldn't get up.. she bled out and the blood fell to the ground by running down her neck and so why would blood get everywhere if that was the case? It doesn't mean anyone went to great lengths to prevent her from getting blood everywhere... more dramatization to make it seem like it was several men in the woods that day.

I wonder if the defense consulted a blood expert before they wrote up their book about the crime scene or did they come up with all these "FACTS" themselves by just looking at photos and imagining the best possible scenario for their client.

Edited to add... there was blood on the clothing, but exactly where it would be if the wound was inflicted while she was laying down and it was running under her as she bled out.

There is a reason they only cited crime scene photos for this section - so that they could claim ignorance of the enormous amounts of blood soaked into Abby’s clothing and pooling underneath her.

My opinion only.

Yes!
I was just coming here to say the same thing.
A very dishonest description by the defense.

Yes and I just edited my response to you to show that there was blood on her clothing, but it was UNDER her.. not all over it or where it would be if someone was trying to dress her after the fact. They saw what they wanted to see

Nothing can except being strapped to a gurney.

MOO correctional officers should not be exposed to unshackled non-compliant prisoners, they are at risk of get hurt during any scuffle, for instance trying to stop a prisoner from trying to launch himself down stairs.

Yes they used the word “appeared” in describing the blood left on AW so while it wasn’t an outright lie, it was definitely misleading.

I have just started to read the Blood splitter expert and my heart literally aches for Libby. She would of seen Abby incapacitated and likely killed before her very eyes to then have to fight her attacker. It’s all so heartbreaking for a child to have to face such evil.

ETA - I am not diminishing what Abby went though but Libby was alive and conscious when she was attacked and literally had to fight.

Scanning this now - it seems that this Cicero guy was not at the actual crime scene in 2017 when the kids were found or in the days after? It seems like he joined sometime in around Feb 12, 2024? So he is only looking at photos and making his assessment / analysis? How accurate is this likely to be given he was never at the actual crime scene?

He used photos of the crime scene, autopsy photos, crime scene reports, and autopsy reports. He also examined actual evidentiary items, like the articles of clothing.

To add to this, he said he did visit the "scene" - in April 2024 where he was able to observe the topology of the land and compare to the extensive photos that he had to work with.

And in my opinion the types of things he can testify to, such as blood flow patterns and characteristics of the spatter and pooling, can be accurately done with the materials he had.

7 years of winters and springs.
The land where they were found is below and old gravel quarry, below a berm arm's drainage, MOO land may have changed flow directions several times since 2017.

Asked and answered then sustained. Cicero has the experience and education to back up his interpretation of the crime scene. Way more than RB Perlmutter.
