The prosecutor had previously filed a request to amend charges to include two counts of murder while committing or attempting to commit kidnapping, two counts of murder, and two counts of kidnapping, arguing that the changes “more accurately aligns the charging information with the cause’s discovery and the probable cause affidavit”.
Delphi murders suspect Richard Allen has two charges dropped ahead of trial
I’m puzzled by the second location theory, can you all help me put it together? I understand RA has four murder charges. I think we have discussed that two are considered the most serious and sentences would reflect that, and two are slightly lesser. So if the Jury are convinced that it was RA on the bridge and kidnapped the girls which led to their murder he would be convicted on that charge (twice). But if the Jury was convinced that RA was the person who took them down the hill and killed Abby and Libby he would be convicted on the most serious charges. And that is the reason behind the second location theory..to move time of death to a time where RA has an alibi?
Can he actually be convicted of all four murders, or is it max two, depending on how the jury see the evidence? And does anyone know the difference in likely sentence between the charges?
