#NEW: the defense called Cheyenne Mill as their first witness. Mill was walking the trails the day the girls went missing. Mill told jurors she arrived around 2:50 p.m. and talked to her bf on the phone at 3:12 p.m.
Pt. 2: Mill told jurors how she was walking near Freedom Bridge when she spotted an overweight man who didn’t say hi back. She later described this man as an “old man” who had a camera around his neck.
Pt.3: Mill walked to the Monon High Bridge and crossed the bridge. She took some photos around 3:50 p.m. During her time in the area, she told jurors she didn’t hear anything unusual and didn’t see anyone in the wooded area. She left a little after 4 p.m.
Pt.4: The next day she told police she had been in the area, after she heard about the girls. She met police at Indiana Beach and gave them her account. She said 6 mo. later the FBI contacted her and notified her that her phone was pinged as being at the high bridge on Feb. 13.
Pt.5: Mill began crying on the stand when she talked about how she’s experienced doxing from online vigilantes who follow the case. The second witness called was Theresa Liebert who lives near the murder scene and is a neighbor of Brad Weber.

According to the State's 40th witness, Master Trooper Brian Harshman/ISP, the only detail contained in any of Allen's confessions that "only the killer would know" is the one time he mentioned to prison psychologist Dr. Monica Wala that a van spooked him into stopping his plan...
to SA Abby and Libby, and that's when they crossed the creek and he killed them. The witness says the van belongs to Brad Weber who lives at South end of the bridge, and he arrived home between 2:27-2:30 on 2/13/17. That's based off Weber clocking out of work @ Subaru plant...
in Lafayette at 2:02 pm, and needing 20-25 minutes to return home. Harshman testified his time estimate for the drive comes from multiple Waze searches. On Cross, Rozzi asked if Harshman was aware that Weber was a suspect at one point, the State objected and he did not answer.
Rozzi also asked "did you ever consider BW could be involved if you can place his van there at that time?" Harshman: "No." Per earlier testimony, Weber had a .40 cal gun in his car during that trip, and it was tested to compare to the cartridge found at the crime scene.
The testing in 2017 could not exclude Weber's gun. The Firearms Examiner testified for the state that if she were to do her analysis again - after discovering Allen's gun is a match - she could exclude it now. The defense has subpoenaed Weber, so we will be hearing more about him
The Defense also indicated in their cross of Weber yesterday that perhaps there's evidence or a statement from him saying he didn't go straight home. Libby's phone stopped moving at 2:32pm so for State timeline to work, Weber needs to have gone straight home, quickly.
Harshman also testified that after listening to 700 recorded prison calls with Allen, and then viewing Libby's video of BG, he was able to determine BG video is "the voice of Richard Allen." Direct testimony ended there.

Delphi Murders trial: Day 13 live blog
Delphi Murders trial of Richard Allen continues with testimony from witnesses. Allen is charged with murder of two girls in 2017. Follow for updates.
www.wishtv.com
Dwenger confirms Allen was not severely mentally ill and “began to decompensate” until he was in the Westville Correctional Unit. She says he was first contacted about Allen in April of 2023. She says that’s when his core team was formed.
The first contact she describes was coming from Dr. Wala asking if Allen could have a meeting with his wife. Dwenger tells the jury that at that point Wala told her that Allen was faking it.
Dwenger tells the jury the team was called an MDT, a multi-disciplinary team. She explains that “gravely ill” means you aren’t able to take care of yourself.
She says it got to the point where it didn’t matter if he was “faking it,” and they needed to intervene.
Dwenger explains Haldol shots to the jury. She says it helps with psychosis symptoms and being “gravely ill” is a symptom of psychosis.

Phone call on April 3, 2023:
Allen to his wife
The phone call starts with Richard Allen saying, “Hey. Are you there?”
“Yes babe,” said Kathy.
“I did it,” said Allen.
“What?” questioned Kathy.
“No, I did it. I killed Abby and Libby,” said Allen.
“No, you didn’t,” replied Kathy.
“Yes, I did,” said Allen.
“No, you didn’t. You’re not feeling well,” pushed Kathy.
“Why did you say that?”
“Because maybe, I think I did,” said Allen.
“No, you didn’t. They are messing with your mind,” replied Kathy.
“Don’t you ever say you did it.”
“I think I did,” said Allen.
“No. Why would you say that?” she questioned again.
“I think I did. I’ll say I did. I don’t know,” said Allen.
Kathy's response was, “Exactly. You don’t know. There is something wrong. They’re trying to get you to say you did.”
“I want to apologize to the families,” Richard Allen continued.
“Just don’t talk anymore, okay,” Kathy.
“I’m sorry,” said Allen.
“Don’t talk anymore. I’m hanging up,” said Kathy.
The call ended.

There were other conversations where Richard Allen expressed he was losing his mind.
He said he wanted to kill himself and that he wanted Kathy to understand that he, “Did it” (referring to killing Abby & Libby.)
Kathy repeatedly told her husband he wasn’t well.
“I think I lost my mind… You should know I did it, babe” Allen replied.
Allen added that he did not understand what was going on.
Kathy replied, “Neither do I."

13 Things To Know From The #Delphi Murders Trial Today - Nov 1
1. Today was the first full day of testimony for the defense. They had a strong strategy to counter Thursday’s damaging jailhouse confessions played for the jury. But that strategy blew up in their face.
2. They called Max Baker to testify. He’s a defense team intern who compiled months of prison video obtained through discovery, including video of Richard Allen in & out of his cell—highlighting his treatment & mental decline. Could have been powerful, but the jury never saw it.
3. Prosecutor Nick McLeland objected to jurors seeing the IDOC videos bc the defense couldn’t verify the dates they were recorded. Judge Gull ruled the jury CAN see the videos at a later date—IF the defense can prove the videos are from the same time period of RA’s confessions.
4. The defense was still able to get the jury info suggesting Allen was mentally impaired at the time of his confessions. IDOC behavioral health director Dr. Deanna Dwenger testified RA was diagnosed with Serious Mental Illness & designated Gravely Disabled around that time.
5. She also said solitary confinement can be toxic for mental health & could have made RA worse. So while jurors didn’t get to see prison videos to help counteract the powerful audio statements, the defense did start planting seeds about RA’s mental health at time of confessions.
6. Before discussing the other witnesses, it’s important to mention what Gull ruled at the end of today’s testimony. She ruled (again) the defense CANNOT introduce evidence & witnesses related to their Odinism & alternate perpetrator theory—a big part of the defense strategy.
7. Former Delphi police chief Steve Mullin & former Carroll Co sheriff Tobe Leazenby also testified today. The defense blasted Mullin for erased suspect interviews early in the investigation & got Leazenby to acknowledge he originally thought there were multiple killers.
8. Local residents Brad Heath & David McCain told jurors what they saw the day Abby & Libby were killed. Baker said he saw a blue car that seemed out of place near the trail & McCain took photos on the Monon High Bridge the afternoon of the murders. Said he didn’t see Bridge Guy.
9. Chris Goote, a police officer who helped interview possible suspects right after the murders, said he didn’t recall anything from his interview with Brad Weber (now of interest to the defense). Even after being shown a report about his interview, he still recalled nothing.
10. Former Delphi fire chief Darrell Sterrett testified he helped search along the creek the night the girls went missing, but he & others didn’t see the bodies in the woods or the clothes recovered the next day from the creek. Were they just hard to see in the dark or not there?
11. Today’s testimony was punctuated by frequent objections, sidebars & delays. Don’t expect that to change. McLeland seems very willing to fight to prevent jurors from seeing evidence & testimony that he wants excluded. And some of today’s testimony was ripe for objection.
12. Jurors continue to be engaged & ask great questions. My favorite of the day was a question that led the DOC mental health expert to explain to jurors how to tell when an inmate has a real mental illness & when they are faking it—something these jurors will be asked to decide.
13. I’m getting comments asking why I didn’t mention X or why I left out Y & Z. It’s hard to include a day’s worth of testimony in 13 brief points. To see more, check out the 13News Delphi Debrief — Day 13 edition. We can fit in a lot in 48 minutes. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WrcXd3Ps7Rw

-The building is near the old CPS building where the prosecution says Richard Allen parked his car that day
-He arrived around to the building for the job at 1:46 PM and left around 2:06 pm
-He described seeing a dark blue, older car parked near the trails that day
-He said "it just looked out of place"
-He said he believed the car was from the late 80s or early 90s
-However, he could not say whether or not other vehicles were parked at the old CPS building that day
-Next up was David McCain who has walked the trails ever since he was a kid
-He says he believes he was on the trails sometime between 2 and 4 PM on the day of the murders
-He walked to the bridge and took some pictures before walking back
-He was interviewed by the FBI and gave over his SIM card but has never got it back
-He testified that he heard nothing unusual while on the bridge or the trails
-After him former fire chief Darrell Sterrett was up
-He was helping lead searches in the area of the bridge the day the girls went missing
-Sterrett had a lot of trouble remembering almost anything and had to reference his deposition several times
-He testified that nobody out there that night saw any clothes in the creek
-He also said he could hear people searching on the north side of the creek which is where the girls were found
-I believe this is an insinuation by the defense that the girls were taken away and then brought back otherwise they would've been found
-Next up was Steve Mullin who is the former Delphi Police Chief and now is the prosecution's investigator
-His testimony started off with defense attorney Andrew Baldwin asking him about missing interviews from early on in the investigation
-Mullin admitted that dozens and dozens of interviews were lost forever due to a DVR issue
-Every interview from February 14, 2017 to March 21, 2017 was lost
-Mullin also said interviews from April 28, 2017 to June 2, 2017 were lost as well
-They were able to recover the video of those interviews but not the audio
-I noticed a couple jurors shaking their heads when this came up
-Baldwin then asked about Mullin's recent phone call with Brad Weber where Mullin says he asked to speak with him
-Mullin did not record that phone call and admitted that he should have
-Mullin was trying to talk with Weber about when he came home from work on the day of the murders and if he drove his fan
-Baldwin again brought up the fact that Weber has given conflicting statements
-Baldwin insinuated that Mullin may have given some information to Weber about the van and its ties to Richard Allen's confessions
-Baldwin also pointed out that Weber's Sig Sauer gun was never excluded by the state police lab as being connected to bullet found at the scene
-Baldwin then asked Mullin how many people he thought were involved in the murders of Abby and Libby
-Mullin said one
-Baldwin asked him how long he had thought that
-Mullin said since the arrest of Richard Allen
-Baldwin then asked about a trail camera that was apparently within a 100-200 yards of where the girls bodies were found
-Mullin says someone was seen on it on the 14th and possibly the 13th
-Baldwin then points Mullin to his deposition where he said someone was seen on the camera on the day the girls went missing
-During cross, Mullin said he confirmed Weber drove his van home through phone records but there was no explanation of that
-Last up was former Sheriff Tobe Leazenby
-He was sheriff when the murders happened but is now the chief deputy
-He said he didn't have a major role in the investigation
-Baldwin asked him how many people he thought were involved in the murders
-Tobe said it was initially unknown
-Baldwin then asked how many he thought were involved after Allen's arrest
-Tobe said one
-Baldwin then reference Tobe's deposition in August of 2023
-In that deposition he said he believed multiple people were involved or at least two
-Baldwin asked if anyone else thought that as well
-Tobe said he didn't know
-Baldwin again referenced Tobe's deposition where he said the current sheriff and the chief investigator Tony Liggett thought that as well
-McLeland barely had any cross examination
-That wrapped up the day.
-Tomorrow, we expect to maybe see some of the videos the defense tried to play today
-ISP Superintendent Doug Carter may take the stand as well
Should be interesting! #DelphiTrial

The defense shared two exhibits – camcorder video and a master sheet for the video. The master sheet included a “contains nudity” category for the video.
Gull admitted the videos, despite objection. The prosecution had to pull up chairs to watch the video. Richard Allen cannot see the videos.
The 10 videos were taken during April 2023. One of the videos, referred to as Video #7, was nearly 30 minutes long, but Rozzi sped it up, according to Russell.
While watching the videos, Russell noted that one of the jurors raised their brows and looked at Allen. Several jurors were taking notes. The juror with a background as a psychologist appeared “extremely interested.”
Allen looked down at a coffee mug at one point. Libby German’s family appeared “exasperated” while the videos played, while McLeland seemed exhausted.
Several jurors frowned during Video #7. One juror took notes, wrote something on his notepad, and showed it to the juror next to him. During Video #9, multiple jurors looked toward Allen.
The last video was 52 minutes long. Rozzi told the jury he would be advancing through certain parts.
Defense attorney Jennifer Auger appeared deeply concerned watching Video #10, Russell observed. At one point, Auger held her head in her hand, and covered her mouth during another. Eventually, she looked away.
Of the jurors, Russell said one of the alternate jurors wore a sour look, while the school counselor appeared shocked.
It wasn’t clear to the media and public what was in the videos as the TV faced away from them.
