Abby & Libby - The Delphi Murders - Richard Allen Arrested - #197

What does this say about the defense and the fact they are willing to use such questionable character’s and it raises big questions on what their vetting protocols were?!

It’s a blessing that his testimony has been excluded from the trail or it would of made the defence look even more shady.

These charges came from Dec 21 of 2023 but weren't filed until Sep 26, 2024.

I can't speak for another poster so here's what Holeman said that's questionable. IMO.
Emphasized by me for focus.



If he had said: "and we have proof" I wouldn't have given his statement a second thought. Since he worded it the way he did, my question to him would have been: "If you don't have proof now, after all these years, how exactly do you plan to get it?"

Well they got it now, godsend or investigative perseverance...confessions with details trumps them both. MO

The judge left open showing proof at trial on the SODDI stuff...I'd assume at sidebars or out of the jury's presence discussions/rulings.

This just happened to one of their mostly likely to be witnesses (if the judge ruled to admit certain SODDI things at trial when shown relevent proof)

Defense witness Todd Click has been arrested.​

Him saying "I'm gonna prove it" does not mean he does not already have evidence to use for proof.

They already had evidence enough to get the PCA and the warrants and they were receiving forensics results, and compiling witness testimony and background reports.

So I don't see anything nefarious about him saying he was going to 'prove it.' To me that just means he plans to take the evidence to court to prove RA's guilt. JMO

If Indiana's attorney general is not knowledgeable about the case, he sure shouldn't be making such comments on it. "Holding it close to the vest" might have been a better way around the question. MOO

I believe the gag order only applies to extra-judicial statements to the public. IMO

Holeman would not have to prove anything in the interrogation room; but I would have expected him to say "we have proof" instead of what he did say. MHO

But there is a difference between 'proof' and 'evidence.'

They can have all the evidence necessary to prove guilt, but until they go to court and take it to trial, they have no proof. Proving it requires sharing the evidence with the court and 'proving your case.'

So I don't see anything wrong with Holeman's wording. He predicted he was going to prove it, because he had the evidence necessary. Simple as that, IMO.
