Podcasts about Delphi

Today we deep dive the Bene Gesserit, and find their real-life counterparts in history (The Vestal Virgins and the Oracle of Delphi) and try to see which women today have modern day Bene Gesserit elements to them.

This episode pulls back the curtain on two of the most controversial and emotionally charged elements of the Delphi murders case: the evidence linked to Ron Logan that jurors never heard, and the personal devastation endured by Richard Allen's wife, Kathy Allen, in the aftermath of his conviction. We start with the Logan file — an FBI affidavit outlining a falsified alibi, phone data placing Logan near the crime scene, past incidents of violence, and physical characteristics some believed matched the figure seen on the Monon High Bridge. Investigators executed a full search of Logan's property, yet none of this information reached the jury in Richard Allen's trial. Why was such a significant alternative lead effectively erased from the courtroom narrative? Was it investigative error, strategic omission, or an institutional decision to narrow the lens too early? These questions go to the heart of public confidence in the Delphi investigation. Then we shift to the human cost. Richard Allen's transfer to an out-of-state facility placed him far from Kathy Allen, isolating him from the support system most defendants rely on during the appeals process. Kathy's voice — steady, emotional, and often overlooked — brings forward the deeply personal reality of a case dominated by legal battles and public speculation. Defense attorney Bob Motta explains why she never took the stand and how her testimony might have reshaped the jury's understanding of the man they were judging. This is the intersection of overlooked evidence, investigative blind spots, and the collateral damage left behind when a community demands closure before all questions are answered. #DelphiMurders #RonLogan #RichardAllen #KathyAllen #TrueCrimeNews #JusticeForAbbyAndLibby #HiddenKillers #WrongfulConvictionConcerns #DelphiCase #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This episode exposes one of the most disturbing and overlooked elements of the Delphi murders investigation: the psychological collapse Richard Allen allegedly suffered while held in prolonged solitary confinement before trial. Listeners will hear how isolation, lack of human contact, and extreme mental distress pushed Allen into a fragile, deteriorating state where he made confused, desperate statements on recorded jail calls — statements his family insists were not true and were the direct result of unbearable psychological pressure. Rather than illuminating guilt, Allen's recorded admissions reveal the devastating impact that severe confinement can have on a person who has not been convicted of any crime. His words grow increasingly fractured, defeated, and inconsistent, raising serious concerns about whether mental anguish — not truth — drove his statements. This episode examines how solitary conditions can warp perception, induce hallucinations, and create the exact circumstances under which false confessions are known to occur. We also confront broader questions surrounding the Delphi case, including serious concerns raised by legal observers about investigative decisions, reliance on disputed forensic interpretations, and the possibility of confirmation bias shaping the direction of the case. While the full truth remains contested, documented contradictions, unanswered questions, and procedural concerns demand scrutiny — not blind acceptance. Richard Allen's story is not just about one man; it's about what happens when a system designed to protect due process instead creates the conditions for psychological breakdown. This episode challenges listeners to consider a painful reality: when isolation becomes a weapon, anyone — guilty or innocent — can be pushed past the limits of endurance. #DelphiCase #RichardAllen #TrueCrimeNews #SolitaryConfinement #InterrogationAnalysis #JusticeSystem #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #DueProcessRights #WrongfulConvictionConcerns Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The interrogation practices used in the Richard Allen case have become one of the most troubling — and consequential — aspects of the Delphi murders investigation. In this episode, we break down the reported tactics that raise profound ethical and procedural concerns far beyond Carroll County. From the use of deceptive pretenses to initiate questioning to the unclear delivery and reinforcement of Miranda rights, this interrogation reveals how fragile constitutional protections can become under pressure. When those protections are blurred, a suspect's ability to understand and exercise their rights is severely compromised. We examine how investigators allegedly used false evidence claims, exaggerated forensic certainty, and coercive language during questioning — all while operating under what appears to be a presumption of guilt. Leading questions and narrative-steering hypotheticals amplified that bias, creating an environment designed not to discover truth, but to confirm a theory. These tactics take on even greater significance when considering the weakness of the ballistic evidence at the center of the case. Despite being presented to Allen as definitive, expert analysis reveals substantial uncertainty surrounding the alleged forensic match. Throughout it all, Richard Allen repeatedly maintained his innocence, even as the psychological weight of the interrogation — and the broader investigation — intensified around him. His experience serves as a sobering reminder of how easily confirmation bias can take root, steering investigators toward narrow conclusions while overlooking critical context. This episode explores what happens when interrogation rooms become echo chambers, when pressure replaces clarity, and when the pursuit of justice risks being overshadowed by the pursuit of a confession. These concerns matter not just for the Delphi case, but for every system that relies on fair, evidence-based investigation. #DelphiCase #RichardAllen #TrueCrimeNews #InterrogationAnalysis #BallisticsDebate #JusticeSystem #ConfirmationBias #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #DueProcessRights Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

An unlock of a bonus episode from earlier this year. ⁠Access all of our bonus episodes here⁠. Happy holidays, everyone! -- -- Earlier this year, a spate of news stories told of chatbot users travelling through the looking-glass right into Conspirituality. Paranoid conspiracies, spiritual awakenings, even falling head-over-heels in love with the simulated personalities of large language models like ChatGPT. Could AI have finally crossed the threshold into autonomous sentient consciousness? Could it be that chatbots were anointing new prophets—or, conversely, that very special users were awakening their very special friends via the power of love and illuminating dialogue? Step aside, QAnon, the code behind the screen is illuminated by God! Sadly, some of these stories trended very dark. Suicides, attempted murder, paranoid delusions, spouses terrified of losing their partners and co-parents to what looked like spiritual and romantic delusions. For this standalone installment of his Roots of Conspirituality series, Julian examines this strange new phenomenon, then takes a detour into Ancient Greece and the oracle at Delphi to show that everything old is actually new again—just dressed up in digital technology.

In this episode, we take a hard look at the second police interrogation of Richard Allen and the claims investigators made about ballistics evidence. Authorities described the forensic link between Allen's firearm and a bullet allegedly recovered near the Delphi crime scene as ironclad. But experts have repeatedly warned that this type of comparison is far more fragile than the public is led to believe. We break down why this ambiguity matters, how overstated science can shape an interrogation, and how investigators used these claims to amplify psychological pressure in the room. Despite being confronted with confident assertions about gun evidence, Allen maintained his innocence throughout questioning. His refusal to accept the narrative being pushed at him raises a deeper question: How much weight should be placed on a form of forensic testing that many specialists view as subjective at best? We also examine Allen's deteriorating mental state during more than a year spent in solitary confinement—conditions typically reserved for the most dangerous offenders, not individuals awaiting trial. His jailhouse phone calls reveal a man unraveling: confused, disoriented, desperate for relief. At his lowest moments, Allen even tells his wife he would falsely confess if it would end their suffering, highlighting the devastating psychological toll isolation can inflict. This episode forces listeners to confront uncomfortable truths about interrogation tactics, the limits of ballistics evidence, and the immense pressure a vulnerable suspect can face inside the criminal justice system. It's a stark reminder of how quickly the presumption of innocence can erode when a system leans harder on coercion than clarity. #DelphiCase #RichardAllen #TrueCrimeNews #BallisticsEvidence #InterrogationAnalysis #SolitaryConfinement #JusticeSystemFailure #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #DueProcessRights Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Richard Allen interrogation at the center of the Delphi murders case has become one of the most fiercely debated moments in modern true crime. This episode dives deep into the alleged tactics investigators used during the October 13th and October 26th interviews—tactics that raise serious questions about procedure, ethics, and the integrity of the investigative process. From the unclear communication of Allen's custodial status to the inconsistent reinforcement of his Miranda rights, the groundwork for a fair interview was shaky before questioning even began. What unfolded next, according to filings and reports, was an interrogation environment shaped by psychological pressure rather than objective fact-finding. Detectives allegedly exaggerated the strength of video evidence, invoked threats of severe punishment, hinted at possible leniency, and used accusatory language that appeared to treat guilt as a foregone conclusion. Layer in leading questions, hypothetical scenarios, and repeated dismissal of Allen's denials, and the structure of the conversation shifts from discovery to direction—guiding Allen toward a specific narrative instead of pursuing clarity. Throughout it all, Richard Allen continued to deny involvement in the Delphi murders, even as investigators relied heavily on contested ballistics claims presented as definitive proof. For many observers, these tactics raise legitimate concerns about due process, coercion, and the heightened risk of a false confession. In this episode, we break down why these interrogation techniques matter, what they reveal about the broader Delphi investigation, and how they may shape the pursuit of justice in one of the most heartbreaking cases in recent memory. #DelphiCase #RichardAllen #TrueCrimeNews #InterrogationAnalysis #JusticeMatters #CrimeInvestigation #LegalBreakdown #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #DueProcessRights Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode, we break down why these interrogation techniques matter, what they reveal about the broader Delphi investigation, and how they may shape the pursuit of justice in one of the most heartbreaking cases in recent memory. #DelphiCase #RichardAllen #TrueCrimeNews #InterrogationAnalysis #JusticeMatters #CrimeInvestigation #LegalBreakdown #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #DueProcessRights Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Richard Allen interrogation at the center of the Delphi murders case has become one of the most fiercely debated moments in modern true crime. This episode dives deep into the alleged tactics investigators used during the October 13th and October 26th interviews—tactics that raise serious questions about procedure, ethics, and the integrity of the investigative process. From the unclear communication of Allen's custodial status to the inconsistent reinforcement of his Miranda rights, the groundwork for a fair interview was shaky before questioning even began. What unfolded next, according to filings and reports, was an interrogation environment shaped by psychological pressure rather than objective fact-finding. Detectives allegedly exaggerated the strength of video evidence, invoked threats of severe punishment, hinted at possible leniency, and used accusatory language that appeared to treat guilt as a foregone conclusion. Layer in leading questions, hypothetical scenarios, and repeated dismissal of Allen's denials, and the structure of the conversation shifts from discovery to direction—guiding Allen toward a specific narrative instead of pursuing clarity. Throughout it all, Richard Allen continued to deny involvement in the Delphi murders, even as investigators relied heavily on contested ballistics claims presented as definitive proof. For many observers, these tactics raise legitimate concerns about due process, coercion, and the heightened risk of a false confession. In this episode, we break down why these interrogation techniques matter, what they reveal about the broader Delphi investigation, and how they may shape the pursuit of justice in one of the most heartbreaking cases in recent memory. #DelphiCase #RichardAllen #TrueCrimeNews #InterrogationAnalysis #JusticeMatters #CrimeInvestigation #LegalBreakdown #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #DueProcessRights Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The state's key physical evidence against Richard Allen was a single unspent bullet found at the Delphi crime scene. What the jury never learned is that the first test came back negative. ISP firearms analyst Melissa Oberg cycled six cartridges through Allen's gun and compared the marks to the crime scene round. According to trial testimony documented in the appeal, she found no match. The direct comparison—cycling to cycling—failed to connect Allen's weapon to the murders. So she ran a different test. She fired cartridges from the gun, then compared those spent casings to the unspent round from the scene. Different mechanical processes. Different marks. And suddenly, she had her match. Defense expert Eric Warren called this comparison "apples to oranges." But it gets worse. The defense had William Tobin ready to testify—a forensic metallurgist recognized by state high courts, with 297 cases under his belt, prepared to explain why the scientific community has serious problems with toolmark methodology. The President's own science advisors issued a report questioning whether this evidence is reliable at all. Judge Gull excluded him. The jury never heard the criticism. They never learned the first test failed. They only heard the prosecutor say Oberg had "never been wrong." In this episode, I break down exactly what happened with the bullet evidence, why the methodology is under fire from the scientific community, and what it means that the expert who could have explained all of this was silenced. Richard Allen is serving 130 years based partly on a match that didn't exist until they changed how they tested it. The appeals court now has to decide if that's science—or something else entirely. #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #RichardAllenAppeal #DelphiCase #AbbyAndLibby #Delphi #TrueCrime #DelphiBullet #ForensicScience #JusticeForAbbyAndLibby Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Richard Allen's appeal makes a stunning allegation: the search warrant that launched the entire Delphi case was built on misrepresentations. In 2017, witness Sarah Carbaugh told police she saw a man walking down the road wearing a tan jacket. He was muddy. In 2022, Detective Tony Liggett swore under oath that Carbaugh described the man as wearing a blue jacket - and that he was muddy and bloody. Tan became blue. Muddy became muddy and bloody. According to the defense, that's not a mistake. That's allegedly altering a witness statement to fit a narrative. But it doesn't stop there. Betsy Blair - the eyewitness who saw a man on the High Bridge platform - gave a detailed description three days after the murders. Young, early twenties, medium build, brown poofy hair. She rated her sketch ten out of ten for accuracy. Richard Allen was 44 with short hair. He looks nothing like that sketch. The jury never saw it. And according to the appeal, Liggett never told the judge about it either. Blair also told Liggett directly that she and Carbaugh saw two different people. The Indiana State Police agreed - they issued a press release in 2019 saying explicitly they were "not the same person." Then Allen gets arrested and suddenly they're the same guy. The car descriptions don't match Allen's vehicle either. Blair described sharp angles, not black. Wilson described a purple PT Cruiser. Allen drove a black Ford Focus hatchback. Without this warrant, no search. Without the search, no gun. Without the gun, no bullet match. Without the bullet match, no arrest. Without the arrest, no solitary. Without solitary, no confessions. The entire case flows from this document. This episode breaks down every alleged misrepresentation in Detective Liggett's affidavit and why the defense is arguing the warrant should never have been signed. #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #RichardAllenAppeal #DelphiCase #AbbyAndLibby #Delphi #TrueCrime #BridgeGuy #DelphiWarrant #JusticeForAbbyAndLibby Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Richard Allen's appeal just dropped — and it's not a narrow legal technicality. It's 113 pages alleging the entire Delphi case was built on lies, omissions, and constitutional violations. The defense claims Detective Liggett's warrant affidavit changed witness descriptions to fit Allen. Betsy Blair described Bridge Guy as young, early twenties, with poofy brown hair — and rated her sketch 10 out of 10 for accuracy. Allen was 44 with short hair. The jury never saw that sketch. Sarah Carbaugh originally said the man wore a tan jacket and was muddy. Liggett wrote "blue jacket" and "muddy and bloody." Blair told investigators directly that she and Carbaugh saw different people. The ISP agreed publicly in 2019. Then Allen got arrested and the story changed. The confessions came after thirteen months of maximum-security solitary confinement — in violation of IDOC's own 30-day policy for mentally ill inmates. Allen lost 45 pounds, ate feces, drank toilet water, banged his head until he had black eyes, and was declared "gravely disabled." He confessed while psychotic — and got basic facts wrong. Said he shot the girls. They weren't shot. Said a van scared him off at a time that doesn't match when the van actually arrived. The state had security footage and FBI data proving their own witness's timeline was false. The jury never heard about the ritual killing investigation that law enforcement pursued for years. Never heard expert testimony on the Norse pagan symbolism at the scene. Never heard about Brad Holder and Patrick Westfall — suspects connected to Odinism whose interviews were lost or destroyed, whose alibis were never properly verified, and whose social media showed disturbing parallels to the crime scene. This episode breaks down every major claim in the appeal and what it means for this case. #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #AbbyAndLibby #DelphiAppeal #TrueCrime #RichardAllenAppeal #DelphiCase #BridgeGuy #Delphi #JusticeForAbbyAndLibby Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Joe Kennedy was a longtime agent for the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, or the NCIS. The NCIS is tasked with investigating criminal activities involving the United States Navy and the Marine Corps. So he investigated cases all around the world. Today, Joe works with the Carolina Cold Case Consortium and is devoted to helping solve cold cases. He is also working with eSleuth. This interview is part of our new occasional recurring segment, the Future of Crime Solving. It's a series where we will talk to different figures associated with eSleuth AI. eSleuth AI offers a suite of new tools crafted to help eliminate backlogs and get cases solved — cold and otherwise. It employs artificial intelligence and machine learning technology, and its systems are Federal Bureau of Investigation Criminal Justice Information System compliant. To help convince law enforcement departments around the country that eSleuth is the future of crime solving, the company is working with an impressive array of former law enforcement officials. And they're willing to talk to us. If you're a law enforcement official curious about eSleuth AI, email Scot at sthomasson@esleuth.ai or check out their website at: https://www.esleuth.ai/Find discounts for Murder Sheet listeners here: https://murdersheetpodcast.com/discountsCheck out our upcoming book events and get links to buy tickets here: https://murdersheetpodcast.com/eventsOrder our book on Delphi here: https://bookshop.org/p/books/shadow-of-the-bridge-the-delphi-murders-and-the-dark-side-of-the-american-heartland-aine-cain/21866881?ean=9781639369232Or here: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Shadow-of-the-Bridge/Aine-Cain/9781639369232Or here: https://www.amazon.com/Shadow-Bridge-Murders-American-Heartland/dp/1639369236Join our Patreon here! https://www.patreon.com/c/murdersheetSupport The Murder Sheet by buying a t-shirt here: https://www.murdersheetshop.com/Check out more inclusive sizing and t-shirt and merchandising options here: https://themurdersheet.dashery.com/Send tips to murdersheet@gmail.com.The Murder Sheet is a production of Mystery Sheet LLC.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, I sit down with defense attorney and trial analyst Bob Motta to examine two major developments shaking the foundation of the Delphi case: the collapse of the timeline investigators built around the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German, and the sweeping appeal just filed on behalf of Richard Allen. For years, the investigative timeline was treated as immutable. But in deposition after deposition, the structure starts to buckle. Bob and I dissect how key witness descriptions were reframed, how the search-warrant affidavit selectively emphasized certain statements, and how critical timestamps shifted depending on which investigator documented them. One witness described a young man and an older car — yet was later framed as having seen something “consistent” with Richard Allen. FBI involvement remains inconsistent depending on who you ask. Even the time of death varies across sworn testimony. Then we turn to Allen's new 130-page appeal brief — nearly double the usual size — outlining ten issues and nine constitutional claims. The defense argues the jury never heard about alternative suspects, including one who allegedly confessed. They challenge the exclusion of more than 1,200 pages of evidence, the handling of 61 unreliable confessions, the thirteen months Allen spent in solitary confinement, and the toolmark analysis behind the unspent bullet that prosecutors say ties his gun to the crime. No DNA linked Allen to the scene. A volunteer clerk found an error that went unnoticed for five years. And a judge blocked jurors from hearing evidence that law enforcement themselves investigated early on. This episode isn't about guilt or innocence — it's about whether the system followed its own rules, and whether the conviction can stand on the foundation the state built. Full breakdown. Every issue explained. No speculation — just the record. #DelphiCase #RichardAllen #AbbyAndLibby #DelphiTimeline #TrueCrimeNews #LegalAnalysis #DelphiAppeal #CourtRecords #HiddenKillers #JusticeReview Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

We spoke with Monia Ali, author of the Fandom Exile Substack, about how true crime is becoming more and more like a fandom. We talked about the difference between stans and fans, how fandoms go bad, and how we can all combat toxicity in true crime.In new segment, True Crime Wave, we'll be talking about issues endemic to true crime. At its best, true crime offers the audience a way to learn about stories of crime, social issues, legal realities, and the real human beings at the heart of cases. It can be educational and compassionate and cathartic and thoughtful and incisive, and it can help raise awareness of cases. Good true crime can show case all kinds of different perspectives. It can center journalism, advocacy, legal analysis, investigative approaches, the experiences of survivors or victims' families, and more. That is all very good. But too often, we see true crime devolve. We have seen online mobs, harassment, conspiracy theories, ethics-washing, and more. True crime won't get better on its own. We think talking about these things will help.

Richard Allen is serving 130 years for the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. The jury has spoken. But his defense team just filed something unprecedented—a request to submit an appeal brief nearly double the standard size. Ten issues. Nine constitutional claims. And a roadmap of everything that went wrong in this case. In this episode, we break down the five categories of Allen's appeal and what each one reveals about how this conviction was built. From the alternative suspects the jury never heard about—including a man who allegedly confessed to the killings months after they happened—to the 1,200 pages of evidence that was blocked from trial. From the sixty-one confessions made by a man who was also confessing to crimes that provably never happened, to the thirteen months of solitary confinement that the defense says broke his mind. No DNA linked Richard Allen to the crime scene. The state's own forensic scientist testified to that. The single piece of physical evidence—an unspent bullet—relies on contested toolmark analysis that the defense wasn't fully allowed to challenge. A volunteer clerk caught a filing error that investigators missed for five years. And a judge blocked the jury from hearing about other suspects, erased interview recordings, and an Odinism theory that law enforcement themselves investigated before dropping it without explanation. This isn't about declaring Richard Allen innocent. It's about asking whether the state proved their case—or just closed it. Whether the jury heard what they needed to hear. Whether this was a constitutional trial or a conviction built on broken confessions and blocked evidence. The families of Abby and Libby deserve justice. But justice isn't just an ending. It's the right ending. Full case breakdown. Every appeal issue explained. No speculation—just the facts the defense is putting before the Indiana Court of Appeals. #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #AbbyAndLibby #DelphiCase #TrueCrime #DelphiTrial #RichardAllenAppeal #DelphiUpdate #LibbyGerman #AbbyWilliams Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
