Richard Allen's sentencing for the 2017 murders of Abigail Williams and Liberty German in Delphi, Indiana, marked a profound moment of closure and controversy. On December 20, 2024, Judge Frances Gull delivered the maximum sentence of 130 years, two consecutive 65-year terms, to the man convicted of one of Indiana's most harrowing crimes. The courtroom was charged with emotion as the families of the victims shared their pain, but the day's proceedings also reignited intense debates over the integrity of the investigation and the fairness of Allen's trial. The sentencing hearing began with emotional victim impact statements that laid bare the anguish felt by the families of Abby and Libby. Abby's grandmother, Diana Erskin, spoke of sleepless nights haunted by crime scene photos, while Libby's mother, Kerry Timmons, described a path of destruction left by Allen's actions. The families' grief was palpable, their words searing—a demand for justice and a desire for closure that could never be fully realized. However, the day's events were as much about the case's unresolved questions as they were about the conviction. Richard Allen's defense attorneys had argued throughout the trial that his confessions were not credible, claiming they were the product of mental duress and “situational psychosis” brought on by his prolonged isolation in prison. These confessions, made during phone calls with his wife, included the chilling admission, “I did it. I killed Abby and Libby.” Yet, the defense maintained that the circumstances surrounding these statements—and their admissibility—warranted scrutiny. Central to the prosecution's case was the discovery of an unspent .40 caliber bullet at the crime scene. Forensic analysis linked the cartridge to Allen's Sig Sauer P226 firearm. This connection was pivotal in securing his conviction, but it was not without contention. The defense questioned the reliability of the forensic methods used, suggesting that the evidence lacked the scientific rigor needed for such a consequential case. Moreover, audio recordings recovered from Libby's phone, capturing the infamous “Down the hill” command, were presented as circumstantial evidence. However, no definitive voice analysis linked the recordings to Allen, raising further doubts about the prosecution's narrative. The trial's controversies extended beyond the evidence. Judge Gull's decision to exclude the defense's alternative theory—that members of a Norse pagan group, known as Odinists, were responsible for the murders—became a focal point of criticism. Allen's attorneys argued that this theory was supported by evidence pointing to ritualistic elements at the crime scene. The exclusion of this theory, they contended, deprived Allen of a fair opportunity to present his defense. The procedural limitations imposed on the defense team compounded these concerns. Despite the gruesome nature of the crime and the emotional weight of the case, questions about other potential suspects lingered. Notably, Kegan Kline, a man accused of using a fake social media profile to communicate with Libby, remained a figure of interest. Similarly, the late Ron Logan, on whose property the girls' bodies were found, had faced scrutiny in the early stages of the investigation. The lack of a comprehensive exploration of these avenues left some observers questioning whether the true scope of the case had been fully uncovered. For the families of Abby and Libby, the sentencing provided a measure of justice, but it came with a heavy cost. The crime scene photo leak in 2023 had forced them to relive their trauma repeatedly, with images circulating online despite their efforts to halt the dissemination. Becky Patty, Libby's grandmother, spoke passionately about the need for accountability, not only for the crime but also for the harm caused by the mishandling of sensitive materials. Judge Gull's remarks during sentencing underscored the gravity of the case. Addressing Allen directly, she noted his dismissive demeanor, including moments of eye-rolling during the proceedings. Her words reflected the collective outrage felt by the community, but they also highlighted the deep divisions in public opinion about the trial's fairness. As she lifted the gag order that had silenced parties involved for over two years, the broader implications of the case's handling began to emerge. A significant point of contention in the Delphi community is the growing belief that they have been lulled into a false sense of security by the very institutions they trusted to protect them. Many feel that law enforcement failed to do their jobs, ignored crucial clues and signs, and ultimately covered up their missteps by deleting evidence. This perception has fueled skepticism about Richard Allen's guilt, with some arguing that the rush to convict him may have been an attempt to obscure investigative failures. These accusations further undermine confidence in the judicial process and leave lingering doubts about whether justice has been truly served. Allen's defense team has signaled their intention to appeal, citing multiple grounds, including the exclusion of alternative theories and the admissibility of the confession evidence. Legal experts have suggested that the procedural controversies could lead to a retrial, a prospect that would reopen wounds for the families and the Delphi community. As the courtroom emptied, the questions surrounding the case lingered. Did the system truly serve justice, or were critical aspects of the truth left unexplored? For now, Richard Allen remains convicted, but the shadow of doubt continues to cast a long and uncertain pall over the Delphi murders. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Hwæt a Movie returns with Beowulf: Prince of the Geats! Given how hard this one is to find, we'd be surprised if any of you have seen it. Released in March 2007, shortly after SYFY's Grendel and ahead of Robert Zemeckis's Beowulf, this Scott Wegener-directed indie film dives into the epic tale with a unique take on the hero and his legendary battles. And while the film's limited budget and production constraints might be apparent, its dedication to the original text shines through. Making the film more charming and admirable is the fact that the production team and actors all worked for free on this passion project. All proceeds from the sale of the DVDs for Beowulf: Prince of the Geats went to aid both the American and Norwegian Cancer Societies. Get a sense of the film by watching the trailer here. The film stars both Jayshan Jackson and Damon Lynch III as the younger and older Beowulf. Wegener's decision to depict Beowulf as the son of an adventuring African fisherman offers some interesting possibilities and an approach to the character that we haven't seen yet. It's also one of the few film adaptations to follow Beowulf home to Geatland after his time in Denmark. As always, our episode includes an exhaustive summary of the film, a Q&A discussion, and our final ratings. How do these versions of Beowulf, Grendel, and Grendel's Mother stack up against those we've seen before? And how does this quirky, low-budget film score on its fidelity to the source material and its overall entertainment value? As the length of the episode might suggest, we've got a lot to say about this one. This was a delightful film to unpack, and we hope you enjoy hearing about it as much as we enjoyed discussing it. If you're interested in reading more about Wegener's decision to cast black actors to play Beowulf and the responses it prompted, check out the following articles and discussions: Clark, David.

Judge Frances Gull recently issued a ruling in the case of Richard Allen, who is accused of the murders of two young girls, Liberty German and Abigail Williams, in Delphi, Indiana. In this ruling, Judge Gull barred Allen's defense team from presenting evidence or arguments related to "Odinism" during the trial.Summary of the Ruling:Background on Odinism Argument: Allen's defense team had previously suggested that the killings might be linked to a group practicing "Odinism," a form of paganism with links to Norse mythology. The defense argued that these "Odinists" could be responsible for the murders, suggesting that this theory could potentially provide reasonable doubt regarding Allen's guilt.Judge's Rationale: Judge Gull found that there was insufficient evidence to substantiate the defense's claim that the murders were connected to Odinism. She concluded that the defense's theory was speculative and not supported by credible evidence that could be presented at trial. The judge's decision was based on the principle that evidence presented in court must be relevant and reliable, and she determined that the Odinism theory did not meet this standard.Impact on the Defense: The ruling restricts Allen's defense team from using the Odinism theory to create doubt about his involvement in the murders. This decision limits the defense's ability to argue that the murders were committed by someone other than Allen based on the supposed religious or ritualistic motives of others.Focus of the Trial: With this ruling, the trial will focus more closely on the evidence directly linking Richard Allen to the murders, such as forensic evidence, witness testimony, and other investigative findings, rather than on broader, unsubstantiated theories about possible alternative suspects or motives.(commercial at 14:04)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Delphi podcasters predict more 'weird stuff' to come from Richard Allen's defense after ban on blaming murders on 'cult' | The US Sun (the-sun.com)

Richard Allen's defense team has crafted an alternate theory centered around an alleged cult of "Odinists" who killed Liberty German and Abigail Williams as part of some kind of pagan sacrifice. The theory has garnered much press attention and general criticism. But heathens — those who practice pre-Christian Germanic faiths, many of whom are inclusive and anti-racist — are upset by the theory, which they feels maligns their faith. As president of the Troth — an inclusive, anti-racist, pro-LGBTQ heathen organization — Lauren Crow has seen firsthand the impact that the defense's strategy has had on the heathen community. So she was pretty surprised when she got a call from defense attorney Andrew Baldwin in mid-April.Here's a link to The Troth: https://thetroth.org/Here's The Troth's statement on the Delphi case: https://thetroth.org/position-statement/odinist-ritual-defense-indiana-murder-case/Check out Lauren's Heathen History podcast here: https://www.heathenhistory.com/Support The Murder Sheet by buying a t-shirt here: https://www.murdersheetshop.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.
As we approach June, faithful Christians brace themselves for an avalanche of propaganda affirming that which God condemns. For the last few decades, mainstream evangelicals have attempted to be nice in hopes of winning hearts. If you can't tell, nice doesn't work against attacking wolves. Kindness is a Christian virtue, but niceness is not. Loving your neighbor means crushing his idols and living in faithful defiance against the false gods of the age, all while joyfully preaching the gospel of Jesus' atoning death and resurrection. The history of the Christian faith is a history of building churches and destroying pagan idols. We don't win by being nice to abomination. We win with a gospel that offends. We win with taunts against the enemies of God. We win with axes set against pagan trees as the Odinists, Ba'al worshippers, and Sodomists bend the knee to the one true King of Kings. Join us as we preach the game plan for crushing the enemies of God with the Gospel of Christ.
In a motion filed Monday, McLeland listed a dozen items he contends defense attorneys should not be allowed to mention, comment on, or reference in any way during the trial. These include purported evidence that Delphi teenagers Abigail Williams and Liberty German were killed by a group of Odinists ― a key part of Allen's defense. Donnie Burgess from the WIBC News Team joins Hammer & Nigel to share recent updates for the upcoming Delphi trial.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In the unfolding saga of the Delphi murder case, the latest development poses a crucial question: What happens when potentially exculpatory evidence mysteriously disappears? Tony Brueski discusses this perplexing scenario with Bob Motta, a defense attorney and host of "Defense Diaries," focusing on the case against Richard Allen, the man accused of being the Delphi murderer. The twist in the tale comes with the revelation that evidence - specifically, a conversation with two initial suspects in the case - has been lost. This loss is not just any evidence, but interviews with suspects who were also potentially Odinists, a detail that could have been crucial in Allen's defense. Motta responds to Brueski's query about the destruction of evidence, "It certainly seems like it was intentional... but proving that is another matter." Motta elaborates on the challenges faced by the defense in such situations, noting that while loss of recordings can happen due to human error, its occurrence in a case where the evidence could exonerate the accused casts a suspicious light. "It's a bad look," Motta comments, emphasizing the gravity of the situation. The conversation shifts to the broader implications of this loss. Brueski questions the frequency of such incidents in legal cases. Motta acknowledges that while technical issues can lead to lost recordings, the potential exculpatory nature of the lost evidence in the Delphi case makes it particularly concerning. Motta also discusses the defense's strategy, which leans heavily on an alternate suspect theory involving Odinists and white supremacists. The defense's move to highlight this theory, especially in light of the missing evidence, is a crucial part of building their case for Allen. In conclusion, the episode of "Hidden Killers" raises important questions about the integrity of the legal process in high-profile cases. As Motta and Brueski discuss, the disappearance of key evidence in the Delphi murder case not only complicates the defense's strategy but also casts doubt on the proceedings, leaving observers to wonder: How will this impact the trial's outcome, and what other surprises might this case hold?

In the unfolding saga of the Delphi murder case, the latest development poses a crucial question: What happens when potentially exculpatory evidence mysteriously disappears? Tony Brueski discusses this perplexing scenario with Bob Motta, a defense attorney and host of "Defense Diaries," focusing on the case against Richard Allen, the man accused of being the Delphi murderer. The twist in the tale comes with the revelation that evidence - specifically, a conversation with two initial suspects in the case - has been lost. This loss is not just any evidence, but interviews with suspects who were also potentially Odinists, a detail that could have been crucial in Allen's defense. Motta responds to Brueski's query about the destruction of evidence, "It certainly seems like it was intentional... but proving that is another matter." Motta elaborates on the challenges faced by the defense in such situations, noting that while loss of recordings can happen due to human error, its occurrence in a case where the evidence could exonerate the accused casts a suspicious light. "It's a bad look," Motta comments, emphasizing the gravity of the situation. The conversation shifts to the broader implications of this loss. Brueski questions the frequency of such incidents in legal cases. Motta acknowledges that while technical issues can lead to lost recordings, the potential exculpatory nature of the lost evidence in the Delphi case makes it particularly concerning. Motta also discusses the defense's strategy, which leans heavily on an alternate suspect theory involving Odinists and white supremacists. The defense's move to highlight this theory, especially in light of the missing evidence, is a crucial part of building their case for Allen. In conclusion, the episode of "Hidden Killers" raises important questions about the integrity of the legal process in high-profile cases. As Motta and Brueski discuss, the disappearance of key evidence in the Delphi murder case not only complicates the defense's strategy but also casts doubt on the proceedings, leaving observers to wonder: How will this impact the trial's outcome, and what other surprises might this case hold?

What if a seemingly far-fetched theory turns out to be a cornerstone in a high-profile murder case? This question is at the forefront of the latest "Hidden Killers" podcast episode, where Tony Brueski and former FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer delve into the perplexing Delphi murder case involving Richard Allen. The discussion revolves around the bizarre but potentially significant theory of Odinism and its connection to the case. The episode starts with Brueski referencing an interview with one of Allen's attorneys, who initially dismissed the Odinism angle as "magical thinking" but later acknowledged its seriousness, especially after discovering some guards had Odinist tattoos. This revelation led the attorney to believe that the theory was not only real but also frightening. Coffindaffer, lending her expertise, confirmed the existence of Odinism and the legitimacy of the FBI's investigation into this angle. While she remains skeptical about Odinists conspiring to murder children, she acknowledges the necessity of exploring all leads in such a complex case. "You have to go where the evidence leads," Coffindaffer asserts, underlining the importance of thorough investigation in criminal cases. Brueski and Coffindaffer also discuss the curious fact that Allen, a CVS worker with no criminal background, was aware of Odinist symbols and their significance, raising questions about his knowledge and observations in the community. This aspect leads them to speculate whether Allen might have noticed a trend among certain groups in the area. The conversation then shifts to the broader implications of the case, with Coffindaffer highlighting the numerous mistakes and potential cover-ups that have plagued the investigation. She expresses concern about whether justice can be truly served given the flawed handling of evidence, including the critical error of taping over important tapes. As the podcast concludes, Brueski and Coffindaffer leave listeners with a thought-provoking question: In a case filled with twists and turns, is it more fantastical to believe in an Odinist cult's involvement or the guilt of an unassuming CVS worker? The Delphi murder case continues to baffle and intrigue, leaving the public and experts alike wondering what truths lie hidden beneath its complex layers.

In a case already mired in controversy and confusion, the Delphi murder investigation has hit another nerve-wracking point. Richard Allen, accused of the heinous double homicide of Abby Williams and Libby German, finds his defense team grappling with the revelation of key evidence being inadvertently destroyed. This latest development raises daunting questions about the integrity of the legal process and the pursuit of justice in Delphi, Indiana. The situation unfolded when Allen's attorneys filed a motion revealing that video and audio recordings of potential suspects had been erased due to a DVR program error, effectively obliterating crucial evidence that could potentially exculpate Allen or direct suspicion elsewhere. The error, dating back to February 20, 2017, eradicated interviews conducted in the immediate aftermath of the murders, including those of individuals identified as Odinists, further complicating an already complex case. This bombshell revelation has not only shocked the community but has also brought into sharp focus the actions of Judge Frances Gull, who has remained a polarizing figure throughout the proceedings. Despite the Indiana Supreme Court's unanimous decision to deny Allen's request for Judge Gull's disqualification, the recent disclosure of lost evidence puts her under renewed scrutiny. Eric Faddis, a former felony prosecutor and attorney, shared his astonishment and concern with Tony Brueski on the "Hidden Killers" podcast. Faddis highlighted the potential significance of the lost recordings, emphasizing the defense's obligation to explore alternate suspects. "This is so absurd," Faddis remarked, pointing out the gravity of the situation and its implications for Allen's defense. The destruction of evidence, whether accidental or not, introduces a "spoliation issue," according to Faddis. This legal principle suggests that the jury, if the case goes to trial, could infer the prosecution's negligence unfavorably, potentially influencing the outcome. Yet, Faddis expressed skepticism that the case would be dismissed solely on these grounds, advocating instead for a jury instruction that could allow them to consider the loss of evidence against the prosecution. The case's twists and turns have fueled widespread speculation and debate, with some wondering about the broader implications of such errors on the legal system's credibility. The question of Judge Gull's impartiality, given her history with the case and the recent developments, looms large, further complicating an already intricate legal battle. Amidst this tumult, the quest for truth and justice seems increasingly besieged by human error and systemic flaws. The loss of potentially exculpatory evidence not only hampers Allen's defense but also undermines public confidence in the judicial process. As the community and the nation watch closely, the case against Richard Allen continues to be as much about the pursuit of justice for Abby Williams and Libby German as it is about the integrity of the legal system that seeks to serve them. As this legal drama unfolds, one can't help but ponder: In the quest for justice, how many more twists can this case endure before the truth is either revealed or forever obscured?

In a significant development in the Delphi murder case, Richard Allen, a suspect in the killings of Abby Williams and Libby German, is pushing for the dismissal of charges, citing the erasure of critical video and audio recordings. Allen's attorneys filed a motion on Wednesday, raising concerns about the destruction of evidence and alleging negligence or intentional conduct by the state. The motion revolves around the disappearance of video and audio interviews with two suspected Odinists, who Allen's attorneys believe could be linked to the girls' murders. According to court documents, the recordings of these interviews, conducted in the initial week of the investigation following the February 2017 killings, were not included in the evidence provided to the defense. "This failure to disclose on the part of the Prosecutor, if not entirely intentional, rises to the level of an untimely failure of disclosure of potentially exculpatory evidence," Allen's attorneys stated in their motion, expressing concerns about the impact on Allen's defense. Special Judge Frances Gull, overseeing the case, denied Allen's request for her disqualification, referencing a prior decision by the Indiana Supreme Court. Meanwhile, the defense contends that the erasure of key suspect interviews and delayed disclosure of evidence hinder their ability to establish Allen's innocence. The motion to dismiss highlights a broader controversy surrounding the handling of evidence in the case, with Allen's attorneys asserting that the destruction of material interviews demonstrates negligence or misconduct on the part of the state. As the legal battle continues, Judge Gull is yet to rule on the defense motions to reschedule the upcoming hearing, where arguments will be presented regarding additional charges against Allen and potential contempt of court actions against his attorneys. The hearing is scheduled for Monday, to be held in Fort Wayne, under Judge Gull's jurisdiction as a presiding superior court judge. The Delphi murder case has captured national attention, prompting scrutiny over the handling of evidence and procedural matters as the pursuit of justice for Abby Williams and Libby German continues.

Richard Allen, the accused in the Delphi murders of Abby Williams and Libby German, is seeking dismissal of his charges following the deletion of video and audio evidence. His legal team submitted a motion on Wednesday, arguing for dismissal due to the loss of crucial interviews with two individuals suspected of Odinism, who they suggest could be the actual perpetrators. Additionally, on Wednesday, Special Judge Frances Gull issued an order rejecting Allen's request for her to step down from the case. This decision was made without a hearing, in line with the Indiana Supreme Court's unanimous rejection of a similar request by Allen on January 18, 2024. The motion for dismissal highlights that the state's evidence shared with the defense last week did not include recordings of interviews conducted on February 17 and February 19, 2017, with the two Odinist suspects. According to the motion, these recordings were lost due to a DVR program error on September 20, 2017, which resulted in all recordings up to February 20, 2017, being overwritten. This loss of evidence, which includes interviews from the initial week of the investigation following the murder of the teenagers on February 13, 2017, is seen by Allen's attorneys as either negligent or intentional destruction of key evidence by the state. In a memorandum filed on September 18, 2023, Allen's defense team proposed a theory that Libby and Abby were victims of a ritual sacrifice by Odinists, not by Allen. They argue that the loss of these interviews is critical, as they could potentially exonerate Allen. Furthermore, the motion points out that an 85-page report from a Rushville police officer's investigation into Odinism was withheld for over four months and only shared with Allen's attorneys after the prosecution became aware of the defense's knowledge of a possible Odinism link. The defense contends that this delay in disclosure, which they deem either intentional or a significant oversight, amounts to a failure to provide potentially exculpatory evidence. This, coupled with the missing interviews of the two Odinist suspects, casts doubt and suspicion on the case against Allen. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Richard Allen, the man accused of killing two Delphi teenagers, has been transferred to a new correctional facility in Indiana, according to a transfer notice filed by the Indiana Attorney General. Allen's relocation comes after an emergency order was filed on April 5 by his former defense team, citing poor living conditions and unfair treatment at his previous prison. Judge Frances Gull granted the request for Richard Allen's transfer, responding to concerns raised by his former defense counsel. Allen had been housed at the Westville Correctional Facility since November 3, 2022, before his relocation to the Wabash Valley Correctional Facility on December 6, as indicated in the notice. Records show that Allen remains on 'long-term segregation' at the new facility, a status that involves physical separation from the general offender population and is typically assigned to inmates in a designated unit. Allen's case has been marked by various legal issues, including efforts to change the location of his trial and disputes over his legal representation. His former defense team had asserted that Odinists, a white nationalist group, were responsible for the 2017 murders of Libby and Abby, casting doubt on Allen's guilt. Earlier this year, Judge Gull denied a request to move Allen's trial out of Carroll County but stipulated that all jurors for the case would be selected from Allen County. Allen's trial was initially scheduled for January 2024 but was later postponed to October 15-31, 2024, to allow his newly appointed public defenders, Robert Scremin and William Lebrato, adequate time to prepare his defense. Despite Allen's legal challenges and requests, both Judge Gull and Attorney General Todd Rokita rejected his petition to have Judge Gull removed from the case and his former attorneys, Andrew Baldwin and Brad Rozzi, reinstated. The rejection was based on their assessment that Allen's actions were "improper" and "inappropriate." They emphasized that Allen should have pursued the appropriate legal channels to address his concerns, such as filing an appeal, which he did not do. Judge Gull further accused Allen's former attorneys of gross negligence, including leaking confidential case materials, providing false information to the court, and making extrajudicial statements likely to prejudice the case. As Richard Allen continues to navigate the legal complexities surrounding his case, the upcoming trial in October 2024 will be a critical juncture in determining his fate in the murder of Libby and Abby, whose deaths continue to haunt the Delphi community.

Have you ever wondered what goes on behind closed doors when legal minds brainstorm on a complicated murder case? The podcast "Hidden Killers" recently hosted a riveting discussion with Tony Brueski and renowned defense attorney Bob Motta, revealing insights into the controversial Richard Allen case and sparking debates about the integrity of the legal proceedings thus far. Richard Allen, for those unfamiliar, is wrapped up in a complex legal battle, centered around allegations connecting him to a dark and intricate Odinist cult. The original defense team had walked down a rather unconventional road, presenting a theory involving ritualistic sacrifices linked to Odinism. This strategy has left many perplexed, including Motta himself, who questioned the viability of continuing down this unique path with new defense attorneys now involved. “You definitely are not beholden to predecessor counsel's motions. But do you want to? I guess it's more the question,” Motta pondered, highlighting the dilemma the new defense faces in deciding whether to stick to or deviate from the previous narrative. The discussion further delved into the intricacies of the Odinist connection, attempting to dissect why such a theory was brought into play in the first place. Motta pointed out that while many people find the ritualistic aspect fantastical, it is an undeniable fact that there are Odinists involved in this case. The challenge, however, arises when attempting to connect these Odinist beliefs to a ritualistic sacrifice, a connection that is not strongly supported by historical patterns of Odinism. As Motta highlights, “There's no real history of Odinists sacrificing people.” Despite this, the existence of Odinist guards and individuals who subscribe to Odinism in the area is a fact that cannot be ignored. The debate then becomes whether or not this aspect of the case can be presented in a manner that is palatable and convincing to a jury, without coming across as too fantastical or far-fetched. Motta further emphasized that everything the defense had brought up in their memo came directly from the state's discovery, challenging the notion that the Odinism angle was a fabrication of the defense. He pointed out that three cops continued to investigate the Odinism angle for months after the unified command abandoned it, questioning why this path was left unexplored. The podcast also touched upon the evidence against Richard Allen, with Motta criticizing the lack of concrete proof. “What they have on Richard Allen is not sufficient to prove anything,” he stated, bringing into question the integrity of the prosecution's case. He pointed out that the evidence against Allen, including an unspent casing and a voluntary statement, does not match the strength of evidence present in other high-profile cases. As the conversation steered towards the potential outcomes and future proceedings, Motta raised concerns about the impact of the legal strategies on the victim's families and the quest for justice. He emphasized the need for a thorough investigation, ensuring that every possible angle is explored and the true perpetrator is brought to justice. In conclusion, the podcast "Hidden Killers" with Tony Brueski and Bob Motta offers a deep dive into the complex and controversial Richard Allen case, shedding light on the challenges faced by the defense and the broader implications on the legal system. As new counsel takes over and the world watches, one can't help but wonder, will justice prevail, or will the shadows of doubt and controversy continue to cloud the case? What lies ahead for Richard Allen, and how will the legal drama unfold? Only time will tell. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

The original defense team had walked down a rather unconventional road, presenting a theory involving ritualistic sacrifices linked to Odinism. This strategy has left many perplexed, including Motta himself, who questioned the viability of continuing down this unique path with new defense attorneys now involved. “You definitely are not beholden to predecessor counsel's motions. But do you want to? I guess it's more the question,” Motta pondered, highlighting the dilemma the new defense faces in deciding whether to stick to or deviate from the previous narrative. The discussion further delved into the intricacies of the Odinist connection, attempting to dissect why such a theory was brought into play in the first place. Motta pointed out that while many people find the ritualistic aspect fantastical, it is an undeniable fact that there are Odinists involved in this case. The challenge, however, arises when attempting to connect these Odinist beliefs to a ritualistic sacrifice, a connection that is not strongly supported by historical patterns of Odinism. As Motta highlights, “There's no real history of Odinists sacrificing people.” Despite this, the existence of Odinist guards and individuals who subscribe to Odinism in the area is a fact that cannot be ignored. The debate then becomes whether or not this aspect of the case can be presented in a manner that is palatable and convincing to a jury, without coming across as too fantastical or far-fetched. Motta further emphasized that everything the defense had brought up in their memo came directly from the state's discovery, challenging the notion that the Odinism angle was a fabrication of the defense. He pointed out that three cops continued to investigate the Odinism angle for months after the unified command abandoned it, questioning why this path was left unexplored. The podcast also touched upon the evidence against Richard Allen, with Motta criticizing the lack of concrete proof. “What they have on Richard Allen is not sufficient to prove anything,” he stated, bringing into question the integrity of the prosecution's case. He pointed out that the evidence against Allen, including an unspent casing and a voluntary statement, does not match the strength of evidence present in other high-profile cases. As the conversation steered towards the potential outcomes and future proceedings, Motta raised concerns about the impact of the legal strategies on the victim's families and the quest for justice. He emphasized the need for a thorough investigation, ensuring that every possible angle is explored and the true perpetrator is brought to justice. In conclusion, the podcast "Hidden Killers" with Tony Brueski and Bob Motta offers a deep dive into the complex and controversial Richard Allen case, shedding light on the challenges faced by the defense and the broader implications on the legal system. As new counsel takes over and the world watches, one can't help but wonder, will justice prevail, or will the shadows of doubt and controversy continue to cloud the case? What lies ahead for Richard Allen, and how will the legal drama unfold? Only time will tell. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Have you ever wondered what goes on behind closed doors when legal minds brainstorm on a complicated murder case?

In a recent turn of events described by a judge as "unexpected," the primary attorneys representing Richard Allen, the alleged Delphi murderer, resigned in court. This new development, coupled with several other perplexing occurrences, raises numerous questions about the progress of the case and its eventual outcome. Tony Brueski, the host of the popular podcast "Hidden Killers," explored this unexpected twist with psychotherapist and author, Shavaun Scott. The two delved into the complexities surrounding the sudden resignation, leaked documents, and more. Scott shared her surprise at the abrupt withdrawal, saying, "It's absolutely strange and unexpected." She noted that this would inevitably delay the scheduled January trial. The situation has caused some to speculate about the involvement of Odinists, as Allen's defense previously included references to "odinistic killings." Shavaun expressed concern that this could "fuel the whole conspiracy thing that there were death threats or they were frightened into getting out of the case." Brueski discussed the leaked crime scene photos of the victims, emphasizing that neither he nor most people would wish to see them. Nevertheless, these leaked images upset the presiding judge. Equally concerning was the leaking of a document that discussed the Odinists. This information was online briefly, but in today's digital age, that's all it takes. The two main defense attorneys, Andrew Baldwin and Bradley Rossi, were not suspected of the leaks, but the question remains: Who was behind them? The key issue at hand is the so-called 'Odinus road' that the defense was on. With such a substantial narrative already built around it, can this approach be abandoned or retracted? If the next appointed defense attorney wishes to distance the case from the Odinist angle, will that even be possible? "They can continue it if they want to, as I understand it, even if it becomes increasingly unlikely," remarked Shavaun. Brueski and Scott also explored the motive behind the leaks. Was it an effort to reset the case or something more sinister? Did the leaker aim to verify rumors about marks or runes on the victims' bodies? Shavaun suggested the possibility of someone with "a strange agenda" being behind it, perhaps with motivations that are clear only to them. Another deeply concerning aspect of this case is the suicide of an individual from the defense attorney's office. This person could potentially provide insights about the leaked materials. Shavaun noted the inherent complexity of suicide, emphasizing that it usually results from a myriad of factors and not just one singular event. This incident adds yet another layer of mystery to an already puzzling case. Richard Allen remains in maximum security prison, currently in solitary confinement and without legal representation. Shavaun highlighted the ethical concerns of this, given the potential mental deterioration that Allen could be experiencing. Shavaun aptly summed up the current sentiment by saying, "It's one of the stranger cases that's been in the news. It's one that we're going to have to wonder about." As the case continues to unfold, one can't help but ponder: Will justice, amidst this whirlwind of chaos and uncertainty, ever truly be served? Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In a startling development in the Delphi murders case, defense attorneys Andrew Baldwin and Bradley Rozzi announced their withdrawal from representing Richard Allen, the man accused of the brutal killing of two teenage girls in 2017. This decision comes in the wake of a significant leak of sensitive information, including graphic crime scene photographs, from their office. The Delphi murders, which took place over six years ago, saw the tragic deaths of Abby Williams, 13, and Libby German, 14. The two girls were found murdered on a hiking trail just outside their hometown of Delphi. Richard Allen, 51, was charged with their murders in October 2022 after forensic evidence linked a .40-caliber round found at the crime scene to a gun he owned. Special Judge Fran Gull, during a scheduled hearing, termed the attorneys' decision as an "unexpected turn of events." While the exact reasons for Baldwin and Rozzi's withdrawal remain undisclosed, it coincides with the revelation of the leak of crucial court documents from Baldwin's office. David R. Hennessy, representing Baldwin, stated in a memorandum that three suspected "disseminators" had "betrayed" Baldwin, accessing case-related documents that were securely stored. "Attorney Baldwin did nothing wrong. He was snookered and abused," asserted Hennessy, emphasizing Baldwin's innocence in the leak. This recent development has cast uncertainty over the timeline of Allen's trial. While a hearing is scheduled for Oct. 31, Judge Gull expressed skepticism over retaining the original trial date of Jan. 8. "I don't believe counsel will be prepared within the next couple of months to try a case of this magnitude in January," she remarked. Adding another layer of complexity to the case, Allen had previously confessed to the murders during prison phone calls to his wife and mother. However, these confessions are now under scrutiny. Baldwin and Rozzi had earlier posited a theory suggesting that the girls were "ritualistically sacrificed" by a racist pagan cult known as Odinists. They argued that Allen was "monitored, intimidated, and mentally abused" at Westville Correctional Facility by corrections officers who were members of this cult. The defense attorneys further claimed that the cult might have targeted the girls due to a mixed-race relationship in their family. "Nothing, absolutely nothing, links Richard Allen to Odinism or any religious cult," Baldwin and Rozzi emphasized in a September filing, challenging the narrative of Allen's involvement with the cult Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

When a murder case turns toward conspiracy theories involving an obscure religious belief, can justice truly be served? The recent discussions on the "Hidden Killers" podcast with Tony Brueski and former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer have raised just such questions, diving deep into the intricate aspects of the Richard Allen case in Fort Wayne and the controversial conspiracy theories surrounding it. Richard Allen is set to appear in the Fort Wayne courts soon, where a judge plans to address the recent concerns regarding the evidence. At the core of these concerns are the theories linking the crime to the Odinists, an obscure religious belief, and the consequent leaks associated with the case. According to Tony Brueski, "There's a lot of talk that this could really derail the case because of these leaks." With the mainstream media suggesting that the leaked crime scene photos and information might have originated from a former defense team employee, the potential ramifications are serious. Jennifer Coffindaffer weighed in on the defense team's position, emphasizing how evidence, initially dubbed "fantastical," has taken on substantial weight. She stated, "Who would have thought that the guards truly had odinous patches?...Now they're putting a little bit of meat on the bone." However, both Brueski and Coffindaffer highlighted the significant difference between wearing a religious patch and committing a heinous crime based on that belief. The crux of the matter is understanding that wearing a patch or adhering to a belief doesn't necessarily correlate to criminal actions. Conspiracy theories often gain traction when just enough evidence, or "breadcrumbs" as Brueski put it, appears to give them credibility. In the case of Richard Allen, the defense is possibly introducing these breadcrumbs to raise reasonable doubt. Coffindaffer questioned, "They had meetings, patches, you know, and then you start just... from a reasonable doubt standpoint." The discourse shifted to Richard Allen's character. The juxtaposition of Allen's prior normal life with his current situation in a maximum-security lockup, experiencing weight loss, mental instability, and the pressures from the guards, raises doubts about his potential involvement in the crime. The allegations of guards forcing Allen to confess to the crime, combined with the Odinist conspiracy, further complicate the case. Coffindaffer articulated her concerns, saying, "It doesn't make any sense because here you had Richard Allen who they've accused... having never had anything like this remotely in his background at all." The nature of the guards' involvement is also questioned, particularly regarding their Odinist patches. Brueski pointed out that while some guards might be followers of Odinism, this doesn't equate them with being child killers. The case's complexity is emphasized by the defense's portrayal of a narrative with connections in both the community and the jail where Allen was housed. Coffindaffer's prediction for the trial was clear: "I think we are going to go to trial. I wonder what Judge Gold will do about the leak, and that's the big thing that will be decided this week." As the twists and turns of this case continue to unfold, the question remains: Will justice be served amidst the intertwining threads of conspiracy, religion, and potentially tainted evidence? Can the court truly disentangle fact from fiction and deliver a verdict that stands up to scrutiny? Only time will tell. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In a recent episode of the podcast "Hidden Killers," host Tony Brueski and guest Robin Dreeke, a retired FBI Special Agent and Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, discussed a puzzling case involving accusations of Odinism. The question they set out to answer was a chilling one: "Can Norse religious symbolism be directly linked to a possible conspiracy and murder?" Court documents filed on October 10th revealed that the prosecutor of the case had been in discussions with two correctional officers at Westville Correctional Facility. These officers are believed to be connected to allegations brought forth in an affidavit, which accuses them and others of Odinist beliefs. Furthermore, it was claimed that these beliefs may have played a role in them making threats against one Richard Allen, and even trying to coerce him into confessing to a crime. "It just adds more to the mystique or the mystery of all this," Brueski mused, highlighting the fascinating intersection of religious symbolism and crime accusations. The spotlight on Odinism grew stronger when patches associated with the Norse religion were spotted on the uniforms of some correctional officers. However, they defended themselves by acknowledging the patches but denied any ties to Odinism, explaining that they had since removed them. However, the crux of the mystery lies in the nature of the crime itself and the prosecution's evidence against Richard Allen. As it stands, Allen's connection to the crime scene is primarily based on a bullet from his weapon and his presence near the crime location during the time of the crime. Both pieces of evidence, as Dreeke pointed out, are circumstantial. "So, let's look at this. In all we know, in all we've seen, all we've been exposed to in the world of true crime... how often have we heard of Odinism and ritual sacrifice?" Dreeke asks. The answer, as he alluded to, is not very often. This suggests that the Odinism defense is an extreme outlier and possibly a red herring. When you combine that with Richard Allen's seemingly ordinary background – a father and a pharmacy tech at CVS – the accusations become even murkier. Dreeke pondered on the disconnect between Allen's unremarkable past and the heinous nature of the crime he's accused of, questioning whether there might be something the prosecution knows but has yet to reveal. However, the defense's hesitation to submit Allen's mental health records has added another layer of complexity to the proceedings. Brueski speculates that these records might indicate some trauma or mental health issues, but Dreeke was quick to point out that such personal challenges should not be automatically linked to a crime. With multiple theories and a cloud of uncertainty surrounding the case, both Brueski and Dreeke agreed that neither the Odinism angle nor the accusations against Allen fit comfortably within what is typically seen in criminal behaviors. In the world of true crime, every case has its mysteries, its red herrings, and its unexpected twists. This case, with its blend of religious symbolism, conspiracy theories, and an unlikely suspect, certainly promises to keep listeners and readers intrigued. But it leaves us with one more burning question: "In a world where facts often get stranger than fiction, will the truth about this crime ever fully come to light?"

Delving into the intricate mysteries surrounding the Delphi Murders, the latest episode of "Hidden Killers" podcast hosted by Tony Brueski brought Bob Motta, a defense attorney and the face behind the podcast "Defense Diaries", into the conversation. The talk sought to unmask the layers surrounding a potential angle of a ritualistic killing and discrepancies in the ongoing investigation. Discussing the Delphi Murders, Tony posed the haunting question, “Was this the work of a man out on a walk that decided to kill some kids one day? Was this a ritual sacrifice by Odinists searching for blood to give to their God?” This set the stage for an in-depth exploration of various conspiracy theories around the murder and the legal complexities surrounding it. The conversation revolved around the evidence – runes found at the crime scene, and photographs showing an 'F' inscribed on a tree. Motta was quoted saying, "I think that it was something else and they did this, these ritualistic things with these ruins... and now people are arguing, is it blood spatter or is it an intentional f.” This posed a conundrum. Were these markings an intentional misdirection, a part of the crime, or something else altogether? A pertinent issue highlighted was the ethics of defense, as Motta stressed the defense's "ethical duty to, to not go in and flat out lie in pleadings." The mention of a mysterious professor connected to the case further added layers to the intrigue. This ‘mystery professor' apparently had insights into the crime scene, but information about him remained concealed. Brueski and Motta debated whether the professor's knowledge was intentionally kept in the dark by a trooper connected to the case. “Clearly he did know who the professor was and for whatever reason is not giving him the name,” said Motta, emphasizing the cloud of suspicion. Another poignant moment arose when they discussed runes and their potential significance to the crime. There was mention of another expert from Harvard who was consulted about the runes. The conversation shifted to the pressing concern of securing justice for the victims. As Motta poignantly noted, "All I care about in this case, Tony, is getting those girls justice." There were references to key figures in the investigation, namely Richard Allen, who has been in custody for nearly a year, and other unnamed individuals. The defense believes that the investigation might be reopening given that there are multiple interviews with these individuals, fueling further speculation and the need for transparency. While the podcast did not arrive at a definitive conclusion, both Brueski and Motta remained resolute on the notion that every angle of the Delphi Murders needs a thorough exploration. Motta said, "No one can tell me anything else. That's going to change my mind on that. If we're trying to get to the truth, everything has to be looked at." They both acknowledged that while many are convinced about Richard Allen's involvement, the presented evidence, in their eyes, seemed thin. The Delphi Murders, with its myriad of unturned stones and unanswered questions, remains one of the most haunting investigations in recent memory. As the quest for justice continues, there's an overarching message — the victims deserve a full, unbiased investigation. But with evidence pointing in multiple directions, one is left to wonder: Are we any closer to unraveling the truth behind the Delphi Murders?

Motta was quoted saying, "I think that it was something else and they did this, these ritualistic things with these ruins... and now people are arguing, is it blood spatter or is it an intentional f.” This posed a conundrum. Were these markings an intentional misdirection, a part of the crime, or something else altogether? A pertinent issue highlighted was the ethics of defense, as Motta stressed the defense's "ethical duty to, to not go in and flat out lie in pleadings." The mention of a mysterious professor connected to the case further added layers to the intrigue. This ‘mystery professor' apparently had insights into the crime scene, but information about him remained concealed. Brueski and Motta debated whether the professor's knowledge was intentionally kept in the dark by a trooper connected to the case. “Clearly he did know who the professor was and for whatever reason is not giving him the name,” said Motta, emphasizing the cloud of suspicion. Another poignant moment arose when they discussed runes and their potential significance to the crime. There was mention of another expert from Harvard who was consulted about the runes. The conversation shifted to the pressing concern of securing justice for the victims. As Motta poignantly noted, "All I care about in this case, Tony, is getting those girls justice." There were references to key figures in the investigation, namely Richard Allen, who has been in custody for nearly a year, and other unnamed individuals. The defense believes that the investigation might be reopening given that there are multiple interviews with these individuals, fueling further speculation and the need for transparency. While the podcast did not arrive at a definitive conclusion, both Brueski and Motta remained resolute on the notion that every angle of the Delphi Murders needs a thorough exploration. Motta said, "No one can tell me anything else. That's going to change my mind on that. If we're trying to get to the truth, everything has to be looked at." They both acknowledged that while many are convinced about Richard Allen's involvement, the presented evidence, in their eyes, seemed thin. The Delphi Murders, with its myriad of unturned stones and unanswered questions, remains one of the most haunting investigations in recent memory. As the quest for justice continues, there's an overarching message — the victims deserve a full, unbiased investigation. But with evidence pointing in multiple directions, one is left to wonder: Are we any closer to unraveling the truth behind the Delphi Murders?
Delving into the intricate mysteries surrounding the Delphi Murders, the latest episode of "Hidden Killers" podcast hosted by Tony Brueski brought Bob Motta, a defense attorney and the face behind the podcast "Defense Diaries", into the conversation. The talk sought to unmask the layers surrounding a potential angle of a ritualistic killing and discrepancies in the ongoing investigation. Discussing the Delphi Murders, Tony posed the haunting question, “Was this the work of a man out on a walk that decided to kill some kids one day? Was this a ritual sacrifice by Odinists searching for blood to give to their God?” This set the stage for an in-depth exploration of various conspiracy theories around the murder and the legal complexities surrounding it. The conversation revolved around the evidence – runes found at the crime scene, and photographs showing an 'F' inscribed on a tree.

Ever since the defense in the Richard Allen case filed a Franks motion outlining their theory that a group of Odinists were responsible for the murder of Abby Williams and Libby German, the community around the case has been interested in learning more about Odinists and their ties to white supremacy.To get more information on the subject, we turned to Stuart Wexler- a great author who has investigated and written about white supremacists- including Odinists.We are including below links to his books"The Murder Sheet participates in the Amazon Associate program and earns money from qualifying purchases.America's Secret Jihad: The Hidden History of Religious Terrorism in the United States: Secret JihadKilling King: Racial Terrorists, James Earl Ray, and the Plot to Assassinate Martin Luther King Jr.: KillingShadow Warfare: The History of America's Undeclared Wars: ShadowThe Awful Grace of God: Religious Terrorism, White Supremacy, and the Unsolved Murder of Martin Luther King, Jr.: KingSend 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 the most recent episode of the "Hidden Killers" podcast, hosted by Tony Brueski, Trial Consultant and Body Language Expert Susan Constantine delved deep into an ongoing criminal case. The revelations from the conversation not only touch on a specific law enforcement figure's alleged omissions and misconduct but also raise broader concerns about the existence of organized and covert "evil" in society. The focal point of their discussion was Tony Liggett, the Carroll County Sheriff. A 136-page document submitted by Richard Allen's defense claims that Liggett either ignored critical evidence or even lied about its existence. The core sentiment echoed by Brueski and Constantine was a clear mistrust in the system, and more broadly, a quest for truth in a world plagued by deception. Constantine noted, "There's so much deception that's going on. Reports that go missing don't go missing because they go missing. They're going missing because somebody is hiding them." The implication is clear: there are elements within our system that might be actively working against the truth. But why? The conversation took an even darker turn when the topic shifted to 'Odinism'. While no documented cases of Odinists performing human sacrifices exist, the larger issue at hand, as presented by the hosts, is the possibility of secretive underground cults, some satanic in nature, involved in heinous acts. The debate then revolved around whether some crimes, including the Delphi murders, could be linked to such cultic practices. Constantine shared her belief about such dark societies. "I do believe that there are these cultic practices out there... Underground clubs, satanic movements that are happening and self-sacrificing." However, despite these strong allegations, it was clear from the conversation that proving these claims is complex and evidence might be scant. Drawing parallels with other infamous cases, including the BTK killer, the crux of the discussion revealed a chilling possibility: individuals or even groups, leading seemingly normal lives by day, might be part of dark, underground networks by night. Brueski hauntingly reflected, "There are boogeymen out there, there's more than we think there are... We see them even institutionally... when they work together, it creates like a mega super monster boogeyman." Yet, what might be the driving force behind such increasing depravity? According to Constantine, a lack of empathy and emotion might be fueling this rise. "The human depravity has grown so rapidly that we have become desensitized to having emotion or feeling or empathy for other people." Her assertion raises a pressing question: are we as a society, knowingly or unknowingly, facilitating the growth of such dark networks? Perhaps more troublingly, could there be external evil forces at play, influencing individuals to commit heinous crimes without remorse? Concluding their conversation, Constantine made a bold statement, emphasizing her belief in true evil forces at work. "There is truly an evil force that is somehow inhabited these types of people that are there being able to do the things that they've done without a sort of conscious or repercussion of it." This insightful episode of "Hidden Killers" not only sheds light on alleged misconduct in a single case but also forces listeners to confront larger, more profound questions. As we go about our daily lives, who might be lurking in the shadows, and more importantly, are we ready to confront the realities of organized evil? How secure is the fabric of our society when secret organizations could be operating right beneath our feet? Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In a recent twist to the much-publicized Delphi murder case, Richard Allen's defense attorney submitted a detailed 136-page filing arguing that Odinists, a group following a pagan Norse religion, may have performed a "ritualistic sacrifice" that led to the deaths of Abigail Williams and Liberty German. This claim certainly raised eyebrows, prompting deeper exploration into the credibility of such an assertion. Tony Brueski, host of the podcast "Hidden Killers," discussed this new angle with psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott. Scott pointed out that Odinism is neither a structured nor organized religion, emphasizing that it's largely a "hip, young counterculture belief system." Mentioning Viking festivals and pagan festivals, Scott highlighted that it's more about people who enjoy the Viking era and dress up - also known as LARPers (Live Action Role Players). Quoting Scott, she stated, "So there's zero incidents. Of any kind of violence or human sacrifice associated with the paganistic or odinistic groups. There just hasn't been any precedence for it." She also added that the alternate plot the defense has presented seems "intensely thought out," yet she finds it hard to believe that an organized group would stage a public ritual murder and leave bodies in such a way that would directly implicate them. Tony Brueski further added that there were initial rumors of Odinist claims, but these never gained traction. Reflecting on Richard Allen's defense strategy, Brueski remarked, "Look, you guys didn't look at any of these things and just kind of pass them off as not being valid." The prosecution's evidence against Richard Allen seems to largely hinge on the confession he made to his wife, which, as the defense claims, might have been made under duress. Intriguingly, Brueski also highlighted a mysterious 43-second video clip that has garnered a lot of public speculation. While a brief snippet of a man walking on a bridge from that video has been released, the content of the entire video remains undisclosed. Speculation is rife, with some suggesting that more than one voice can be heard in the clip, while others believe that the audio may have been manipulated. Shavaun Scott posed an interesting query about the defense's approach, wondering if presenting this angle even before the trial starts is a strategy to seed doubt amongst potential jurors. "Let's just throw it out there right now," she remarked, highlighting that creating a shadow of "reasonable doubt" could be the strategy in play. Brueski further emphasized this point, suggesting that the defense, by presenting such a narrative early on, might be ensuring that it's challenging to retract or change course later. He mentioned, "Once they go down this road as they have been, and they've thrown this out there, it's kind of hard to walk your way back in any way, shape, or form." The Delphi murder case, with its unexpected turns and shocking revelations, has left many puzzled. While the defense's Odinist angle is undoubtedly a unique strategy, only time will tell how it will play out in court. One can't help but wonder, as Brueski aptly put it, "Is it just the reasonable doubt angle they're going for more than anything else?" But perhaps the most significant question remains: will we ever truly understand what happened on that fateful day in Delphi? Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Is it feasible that a casual CVS pharmacy worker goes out for a simple stroll and ends up involved in a shocking double murder? Or, might there be darker, more sinister forces, perhaps tied to pagan rituals, at play? This dichotomy forms the crux of the latest "Hidden Killers" podcast episode with Tony Brueski, featuring insights from former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer. The duo delves into the swirling suspicions surrounding Richard Allen and the recently surfaced 136-page document proclaiming a pagan ritual narrative. Brueski likened his experience of sifting through the extensive report to "reading a Goosebumps book as a child." Coffindaffer, on the other hand, finds certain aspects of the defense's claims, which will likely come up during a potential Franks hearing, genuinely concerning. "They were kind of buried in all of the Pagan minutiae of that document," she states, suggesting that these significant points might be overshadowed by more sensational claims. One of the core arguments surrounds the probable cause affidavit. The challenge, as Coffindaffer lays out, is establishing probable cause for a crime that took place years ago. The retrieval of specific items, such as a jacket or gun, years after the incident is not only challenging but also raises questions about the viability of such evidence. "It's so hard to get probable cause to find items from a crime that was committed years earlier," she muses. The gun, dubbed "the smoking gun" by Brueski, stands out as the most pivotal evidence. The jacket's presence, despite its inconsistent description, only thickens the plot. The overarching pagan narrative seems to be a point of contention. Coffindaffer dismisses the theory of a ritualistic, "odinistic" killing. She points to the apparent 'F' mark on a tree, suggesting it was possibly "somebody wiping their hand with their blood" and not an actual symbol. The positioning of sticks over the victims' bodies, she believes, was a mere attempt to hide them, not an intricate ritualistic gesture. "Everybody's trying to make it like it was a long distance. It was a very short distance," she argues, dispelling the theory of the victims being dragged over a significant distance. The discussion eventually circles back to the main suspect: Richard Allen. Was his presence on the day of the murder a mere coincidence or something more sinister? Brueski poses the challenging question: "What are the odds that the CVS pharmacy worker is going out for a walk and he just randomly decides to kill two young girls on that walk?" He contrasts this with the equally perplexing theory: "Or was it these Odinists that happened to randomly catch these two girls and they think in despair of the moment, 'Let's have a sacrifice.'" With the two contrasting narratives on the table, Coffindaffer raises concerns about the mismatch of evidence and the odinistic ritual theory. "We don't see a parcel of guys in hoods," she observes, noting the lack of eyewitness accounts that support the pagan cult theory. In this maze of evidence, speculation, and theory, one thing remains clear: the quest for truth in the Richard Allen case is far from over. Both hosts acknowledge the challenges, but also emphasize the importance of carefully evaluating every shred of evidence and claim. To conclude, one can't help but ponder: In the shadow of multiple narratives and conflicting evidence, where does the line between fact and fiction truly lie?

Intriguingly, Brueski also highlighted a mysterious 43-second video clip that has garnered a lot of public speculation. While a brief snippet of a man walking on a bridge from that video has been released, the content of the entire video remains undisclosed. Speculation is rife, with some suggesting that more than one voice can be heard in the clip, while others believe that the audio may have been manipulated. Shavaun Scott posed an interesting query about the defense's approach, wondering if presenting this angle even before the trial starts is a strategy to seed doubt amongst potential jurors. "Let's just throw it out there right now," she remarked, highlighting that creating a shadow of "reasonable doubt" could be the strategy in play. Brueski further emphasized this point, suggesting that the defense, by presenting such a narrative early on, might be ensuring that it's challenging to retract or change course later. He mentioned, "Once they go down this road as they have been, and they've thrown this out there, it's kind of hard to walk your way back in any way, shape, or form." The Delphi murder case, with its unexpected turns and shocking revelations, has left many puzzled. While the defense's Odinist angle is undoubtedly a unique strategy, only time will tell how it will play out in court. One can't help but wonder, as Brueski aptly put it, "Is it just the reasonable doubt angle they're going for more than anything else?" But perhaps the most significant question remains: will we ever truly understand what happened on that fateful day in Delphi? Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Is it feasible that a casual CVS pharmacy worker goes out for a simple stroll and ends up involved in a shocking double murder? Or, might there be darker, more sinister forces, perhaps tied to pagan rituals, at play? This dichotomy forms the crux of the latest "Hidden Killers" podcast episode with Tony Brueski, featuring insights from former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer. The duo delves into the swirling suspicions surrounding Richard Allen and the recently surfaced 136-page document proclaiming a pagan ritual narrative. Brueski likened his experience of sifting through the extensive report to "reading a Goosebumps book as a child." Coffindaffer, on the other hand, finds certain aspects of the defense's claims, which will likely come up during a potential Franks hearing, genuinely concerning. "They were kind of buried in all of the Pagan minutiae of that document," she states, suggesting that these significant points might be overshadowed by more sensational claims. One of the core arguments surrounds the probable cause affidavit. The challenge, as Coffindaffer lays out, is establishing probable cause for a crime that took place years ago. The retrieval of specific items, such as a jacket or gun, years after the incident is not only challenging but also raises questions about the viability of such evidence. "It's so hard to get probable cause to find items from a crime that was committed years earlier," she muses. The gun, dubbed "the smoking gun" by Brueski, stands out as the most pivotal evidence. The jacket's presence, despite its inconsistent description, only thickens the plot. The overarching pagan narrative seems to be a point of contention. Coffindaffer dismisses the theory of a ritualistic, "odinistic" killing. She points to the apparent 'F' mark on a tree, suggesting it was possibly "somebody wiping their hand with their blood" and not an actual symbol. The positioning of sticks over the victims' bodies, she believes, was a mere attempt to hide them, not an intricate ritualistic gesture. "Everybody's trying to make it like it was a long distance. It was a very short distance," she argues, dispelling the theory of the victims being dragged over a significant distance. The discussion eventually circles back to the main suspect: Richard Allen. Was his presence on the day of the murder a mere coincidence or something more sinister? Brueski poses the challenging question: "What are the odds that the CVS pharmacy worker is going out for a walk and he just randomly decides to kill two young girls on that walk?" He contrasts this with the equally perplexing theory: "Or was it these Odinists that happened to randomly catch these two girls and they think in despair of the moment, 'Let's have a sacrifice.'" With the two contrasting narratives on the table, Coffindaffer raises concerns about the mismatch of evidence and the odinistic ritual theory. "We don't see a parcel of guys in hoods," she observes, noting the lack of eyewitness accounts that support the pagan cult theory. In this maze of evidence, speculation, and theory, one thing remains clear: the quest for truth in the Richard Allen case is far from over. Both hosts acknowledge the challenges, but also emphasize the importance of carefully evaluating every shred of evidence and claim. To conclude, one can't help but ponder: In the shadow of multiple narratives and conflicting evidence, where does the line between fact and fiction truly lie?

In a recent twist to the much-publicized Delphi murder case, Richard Allen's defense attorney submitted a detailed 136-page filing arguing that Odinists, a group following a pagan Norse religion, may have performed a "ritualistic sacrifice" that led to the deaths of Abigail Williams and Liberty German. This claim certainly raised eyebrows, prompting deeper exploration into the credibility of such an assertion. Tony Brueski, host of the podcast "Hidden Killers," discussed this new angle with psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott. Scott pointed out that Odinism is neither a structured nor organized religion, emphasizing that it's largely a "hip, young counterculture belief system." Mentioning Viking festivals and pagan festivals, Scott highlighted that it's more about people who enjoy the Viking era and dress up - also known as LARPers (Live Action Role Players). Quoting Scott, she stated, "So there's zero incidents. Of any kind of violence or human sacrifice associated with the paganistic or odinistic groups. There just hasn't been any precedence for it." She also added that the alternate plot the defense has presented seems "intensely thought out," yet she finds it hard to believe that an organized group would stage a public ritual murder and leave bodies in such a way that would directly implicate them. Tony Brueski further added that there were initial rumors of Odinist claims, but these never gained traction. Reflecting on Richard Allen's defense strategy, Brueski remarked, "Look, you guys didn't look at any of these things and just kind of pass them off as not being valid." The prosecution's evidence against Richard Allen seems to largely hinge on the confession he made to his wife, which, as the defense claims, might have been made under duress.

Could a typical CVS pharmacy worker just decide on an impromptu afternoon walk to commit a chilling crime? Or was the act the bizarre impulse of an elusive group of Odinists? As layers unravel in the Delphi case, more questions than answers seem to emerge. The podcast "Hidden Killers" hosted a profound discussion between Tony Brueski and former FBI Special Agent and contributor, Jennifer Coffindaffer, dissecting the peculiar details surrounding Richard Allen's implication in the murders. The heart of their conversation? A concerning lack of concrete evidence and a mysterious confession. Brueski commenced by highlighting the difficulty in discerning the most plausible theory: "You try to look at both theories here and go, what are the odds that the CVS pharmacy worker is going out for a walk and he just randomly decides to kill two young girls on that walk?" Meanwhile, Coffindaffer echoes similar sentiments, emphasizing her unease over the manner of Allen's arrest and subsequent treatment, particularly given the shaky grounds of the evidence. According to Coffindaffer, one of the prosecution's primary ties to Allen is tool mark evidence, which connects a bullet to the crime scene. She raises concerns regarding the reliability of this method, noting, "tool mark evidence is a bit of a pseudoscience. It's not exact." The debate lies in whether the marks on the bullet can be precisely attributed to Allen's weapon, given the variable factors surrounding the bullet's extraction. Yet, despite the insufficient evidence linking Allen to the crime scene, what is most confounding is his own confession to his wife and mother. Brueski queries, "Was that [confession] under duress? And, if you're going to believe that it was under duress, then you kind of got to go along with some of the Odinistic stuff, because that's how that was phrased." These statements, laden with ambiguity, form the crux of the case, as Coffindaffer asserts. The underlying question is whether Allen's confessions revealed previously unknown information about the crime or were mere exclamations borne out of exasperation. The theory that Allen might have been under the influence of Odinistic guards when he made these confessions introduces an element of salaciousness to the narrative. Coffindaffer articulates the psychological toll that sudden imprisonment might take on an individual, especially someone accustomed to the freedoms of everyday life. "I would think that would also possibly elicit a false confession for somebody that's just gotten to the point of feeling mad," she suggests. The incarceration conditions Allen faces are stringent. These extreme conditions have ignited debate over whether they might influence or force Allen into a false confession, potentially leading to further complications if the case goes to appeal. With so many intertwined complexities and a paucity of clear-cut evidence, it's no wonder Coffindaffer admits to being "50%... it could be him and 50%... it couldn't be him." There seems to be a consensus between her and Brueski that the prosecution might find themselves in troubled waters should the case move to the appeal phase. In conclusion, the Delphi case stands out as a compelling mosaic of theories, allegations, and intricate details that challenge conventional wisdom on criminal justice and evidence evaluation. As the case proceeds, one can't help but ponder: In our quest for justice, are we ignoring the glaring gaps or are we simply too eager to find a culprit?

Historical Background: Odinism draws its inspiration from the ancient Germanic and Norse traditions that flourished in Northern Europe before the widespread adoption of Christianity, primarily during the Viking Age (8th to 11th centuries). These traditions involved a pantheon of gods and goddesses, including Odin, Thor, Freyja, and others, as well as various rituals and myths.Polytheism: Central to Odinism is a belief in a pantheon of gods and goddesses, each with distinct attributes and roles. Odinists honor and venerate these deities in their rituals and daily lives. Odin, often seen as the Allfather and chief deity, is a frequent focus of devotion.Ancestor Worship: Odinism places significant emphasis on honoring one's ancestors. Ancestors are considered a vital part of the spiritual and cultural heritage, and rituals are conducted to remember and connect with them. Ancestor worship strengthens the bonds between the living and the deceased.Nature and Animism: Odinism views the natural world as sacred and believes in animistic principles, seeing spirits or divine forces in natural elements like trees, rivers, and animals. Many Odinists emphasize a deep connection to nature and strive to live in harmony with it.Rituals and Blóts: Odinists perform various rituals and ceremonies to honor the gods, goddesses, and ancestors. One common ritual is the "blót," which involves offerings of food, drink, or other items to the deities and spirits. These rituals often take place during specific holidays or at significant life events.Sacred Texts: Unlike some other religions, Odinism does not have a single holy scripture like the Bible or Quran. Instead, it relies on ancient Norse sagas, Eddas (poetic and prose), and historical sources to reconstruct its beliefs and practices. These texts contain valuable insights into the mythology and worldview of the ancient Germanic peoples.Community and Kindred: Odinists often form local groups known as "kindreds" or "hearths" to practice their faith collectively. These communities provide support, share knowledge, and organize group rituals and celebrations.Ethical Framework: Odinism generally promotes a set of ethical principles that emphasize honor, courage, loyalty, and hospitality. These values are derived from the sagas and Eddas and guide the behavior of practitioners.Contemporary Revival: The modern revival of Odinism began in the 20th century, gaining momentum in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It has faced challenges, including accusations of racism and white supremacy in some fringe groups, which has led many Odinists to distance themselves from extremist ideologies and promote inclusivity.Diversity of Beliefs: It's essential to note that Odinism is not a monolithic belief system. Different individuals and groups within the movement may have varying interpretations of the ancient traditions and different levels of emphasis on historical accuracy, spirituality, and cultural identity.In this episode we dive right back into the conversation about the allegations made by the defense and what the prosecution said in response.(commercial at 14:12)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Richard Allen's attorneys blame Odinism for Delphi killings | wthr.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5080327/advertisement

These extreme conditions have ignited debate over whether they might influence or force Allen into a false confession, potentially leading to further complications if the case goes to appeal. With so many intertwined complexities and a paucity of clear-cut evidence, it's no wonder Coffindaffer admits to being "50%... it could be him and 50%... it couldn't be him." There seems to be a consensus between her and Brueski that the prosecution might find themselves in troubled waters should the case move to the appeal phase. In conclusion, the Delphi case stands out as a compelling mosaic of theories, allegations, and intricate details that challenge conventional wisdom on criminal justice and evidence evaluation. As the case proceeds, one can't help but ponder: In our quest for justice, are we ignoring the glaring gaps or are we simply too eager to find a culprit?

Historical Background: Odinism draws its inspiration from the ancient Germanic and Norse traditions that flourished in Northern Europe before the widespread adoption of Christianity, primarily during the Viking Age (8th to 11th centuries). These traditions involved a pantheon of gods and goddesses, including Odin, Thor, Freyja, and others, as well as various rituals and myths.Polytheism: Central to Odinism is a belief in a pantheon of gods and goddesses, each with distinct attributes and roles. Odinists honor and venerate these deities in their rituals and daily lives. Odin, often seen as the Allfather and chief deity, is a frequent focus of devotion.Ancestor Worship: Odinism places significant emphasis on honoring one's ancestors. Ancestors are considered a vital part of the spiritual and cultural heritage, and rituals are conducted to remember and connect with them. Ancestor worship strengthens the bonds between the living and the deceased.Nature and Animism: Odinism views the natural world as sacred and believes in animistic principles, seeing spirits or divine forces in natural elements like trees, rivers, and animals. Many Odinists emphasize a deep connection to nature and strive to live in harmony with it.Rituals and Blóts: Odinists perform various rituals and ceremonies to honor the gods, goddesses, and ancestors. One common ritual is the "blót," which involves offerings of food, drink, or other items to the deities and spirits. These rituals often take place during specific holidays or at significant life events.Sacred Texts: Unlike some other religions, Odinism does not have a single holy scripture like the Bible or Quran. Instead, it relies on ancient Norse sagas, Eddas (poetic and prose), and historical sources to reconstruct its beliefs and practices. These texts contain valuable insights into the mythology and worldview of the ancient Germanic peoples.Community and Kindred: Odinists often form local groups known as "kindreds" or "hearths" to practice their faith collectively. These communities provide support, share knowledge, and organize group rituals and celebrations.Ethical Framework: Odinism generally promotes a set of ethical principles that emphasize honor, courage, loyalty, and hospitality. These values are derived from the sagas and Eddas and guide the behavior of practitioners.Contemporary Revival: The modern revival of Odinism began in the 20th century, gaining momentum in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It has faced challenges, including accusations of racism and white supremacy in some fringe groups, which has led many Odinists to distance themselves from extremist ideologies and promote inclusivity.Diversity of Beliefs: It's essential to note that Odinism is not a monolithic belief system. Different individuals and groups within the movement may have varying interpretations of the ancient traditions and different levels of emphasis on historical accuracy, spirituality, and cultural identity.In this episode we dive right back into the conversation about the allegations made by the defense and what the prosecution said in response.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Richard Allen's attorneys blame Odinism for Delphi killings | wthr.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5003294/advertisement

Richard Allen was charged with the murders of Abby Williams and Liberty German in October of 2022. If you're unfamiliar with this case, we'd recommend you listen to episode 10. On this episode, Mallory walks us through the 130 page motion filed by Richard Allen's defense team. The motion outlines why they believe the October 2022 search of Allen's home should be thrown out. Their reason? They say that investigators withheld evidence from the judge to get the search warrant approved. The alleged evidence is a rabbit hole filled with white nationalists, ritualistic killings, Odinism, and runes. Is this just a sensationalized attempt to get their client off the hook? Or is there some truth to their claims?If you'd like to shoot a buck or two toward the podcast, you can support us at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/rhhh
Could the Delphi murder case be far more intricate than previously thought? In a riveting episode of "Hidden Killers," Tony Brueski delves deep into the Delphi murder case with Defense Attorney Bob Motta, host of "Defense Diaries." The conversation uncovers a myriad of names, potential suspects, and a web of connections that might change the narrative surrounding the tragic event. "There's a lot of other people named in this affidavit," Brueski begins, hinting at the complexity of the case. Motta adds, "Some name we even have... where it talks about one talking to their sister and admitting involvement in the murder professing details that no one else would know." The chilling revelation suggests that there might be individuals, currently free, who have intimate knowledge of the crime. Brueski poses a pressing question: "Is this, I mean, are we going to see some new arrests made here or is this still going to be digging in?" The implication is clear: there might be more to the story than the current focus on Richard Allen. Motta's response is equally unsettling. "It's not just the one guy. It's like it's a group. Every single guy that they talk about, they come with receipts." He refers to tangible evidence, including Facebook pages and other online traces, that seem to corroborate some of the claims made in the affidavit. The conversation takes a darker turn as Motta discusses the defense's strategy and the potential implications of their findings. "The defense is trying to offset that," he says, referring to the state's theory of the case. Motta expresses concerns about the defense potentially alienating the judge with their aggressive approach, especially given the discrepancies between police reports and the affidavit. However, the most shocking revelation revolves around the alleged confession of Richard Allen. Motta explains, "This bombshell dropped that Richard Allen had confessed two to three times over a recorded jail call to his wife that he had killed the girls." Yet, the defense claims that Allen might have been coerced into confessing due to threats from prison guards who are believed to be Odinists, a pagan religious group. Motta elaborates on the Odinist angle, suggesting that some of the guards and possibly other inmates might be involved in the group. "These guards were wearing patches that said 'In Odin we trust' on their government-issued uniforms," he reveals. The defense alleges that these Odinist guards might have tried to film Allen during attorney-client visits, potentially violating his rights. The conversation then shifts to the broader implications of the Odinist connection. Brueski wonders, "How common are ritualistic killings in this area with Odinists?" Motta responds by mentioning another unsolved case involving two young girls who died in an arson attack. He also touches upon the potential racial motive behind the murders, hinting at a relationship between one of the victims and a person directly linked to the Odinists. As the episode concludes, Brueski is visibly shaken. "It's something else," he murmurs, reflecting the gravity of the revelations. As the Delphi murder case continues to unravel, one is left wondering: How deep does this web of connections go, and are we any closer to uncovering the truth?

In a recent development surrounding the Delphi murders, a memorandum filed in the Carroll County Circuit Court has shed light on potential links between the crime and followers of the pagan Norse religion, Odinism. The document, titled "FINAL DRAFT - Delphi Franks brief," suggests that members of Odinism, a religion hijacked by white nationalists, may have been involved in the ritualistic killings of Abigail Williams and Liberty German. Key Claims from the Document: Odinist Signatures at the Crime Scene: The memorandum claims that symbols in the form of runes, associated with Odinism, were found at the crime scene. These runes were allegedly formed with sticks, fashioned with tree branches, and painted using the blood of one of the victims, Liberty German. BH's Connection: BH (Name Redacted), an Odinite from Logansport, is highlighted due to his son's previous relationship with one of the victims, Abigail Williams. Disturbing images on H's social media, some mimicking the crime scene, were discovered by a concerned citizen from Georgia. Despite these findings, the Unified Command, a group overseeing the investigation, quickly cleared H as a suspect. Failure to Pursue Odinist Links: The document criticizes law enforcement's decision to abandon the Odinism angle early in the investigation. This decision was reportedly based on an unidentified Purdue professor's opinion, which dismissed the possibility of Odinist involvement. Exculpatory Evidence Withheld: The memorandum alleges that the prosecution withheld crucial evidence, including a letter containing information that could prove the innocence of the accused, Richard Allen. This letter, sent by former Rushville Assistant Police Chief Todd Click, expressed concerns about the direction of the investigation and the evidence against Allen. Richard Allen's Innocence: The document strongly asserts that Richard Allen, the accused, has no connections to Odinism or any pagan cult. Furthermore, no forensic evidence, such as DNA or electronic data, links Allen to the crime scene. Odinists in Westville Correctional Facility: The memorandum suggests that members of the Odinist cult are employed as corrections officers at Westville Correctional Facility, where Richard Allen is allegedly being threatened and mentally abused. Quotes from the Document: "Overwhelming evidence in this case supports the following: Members of a pagan Norse religion, called Odinism, hijacked by white nationalists, ritualistically sacrificed Abigail Williams and Liberty German." "BH was never considered a suspect in the murders of Abby and Libby. State Trooper Jerry Holeman, one of the law enforcement officers in charge of organizing and investigating the Delphi murders, claimed in his August 10, 2023 deposition that Brad Holder was not really ever a suspect." "Richard Allen has zero connections to any pagan cult or pagan cultists, and furthermore no forensic evidence (such as DNA) or electronic evidence links Richard Allen to the girls or to the crime scene." Conclusion: The memorandum presents a compelling argument for the reevaluation of the evidence and the direction of the Delphi murder investigation. The potential involvement of Odinists and the subsequent dismissal of this angle by law enforcement raises serious questions about the integrity of the investigation. As the case continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how these new revelations will impact the pursuit of justice for Abigail Williams and Liberty German.

Could a misunderstood ancient religion be the key to unraveling the Delphi murder case? In a recent episode of "Hidden Killers," Tony Brueski delves into the perplexing Delphi murder case with psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott. The conversation centers around the arrest of Richard Allen and the potential involvement of a group practicing Odinism, an ancient Norse religion. But as the details unfold, the lines between pop culture, white supremacy, and genuine religious beliefs become increasingly blurred. "Odinism is what is in question," Brueski states, highlighting the defense's claim of a potential cover-up involving those guarding Richard Allen. He admits, "I've not known anything about Odinism," despite its Norse origins. Scott elaborates on the recent resurgence of Odinism in pop culture, attributing its popularity to TV shows like "Vikings." However, she points out a concerning trend: "The white supremacist movement did kind of latch on... to this pagan Norse God kind of thing." The conversation takes a turn when Brueski questions the attraction of extremist groups to ancient religions. Scott suggests that such groups often seek a sense of belonging and identity. "They reject traditional Christianity and Judaism... and they've just attached to this idea that they're somehow closer affiliated with the Norse gods," she explains. The influence of TV shows, she believes, can't be underestimated, especially on "weak-minded people." But how does this relate to the Delphi murder case? The defense's narrative suggests a ritualistic killing connected to Odinism. Brueski, taken aback by the term "sacrificial killing," asks Scott about the plausibility of such claims. Scott is skeptical: "I do think we would know... if there had been multiple murders committed by a pagan religious group or Odinists... This has never even been speculative before." Scott further questions the defense's strategy, suggesting that the introduction of Odinism might be a desperate attempt to introduce doubt. "Is this something that we really need to be looking into? Apparently, we need to look into it, but the odds are, in my view, that this is... another creative defense attorney trying to come up with something that's pretty indefensible," she opines. The episode concludes with both Brueski and Scott pondering the implications of the defense's claims. While the connection between Odinism, white supremacy, and the Delphi murder case remains tenuous, it's clear that the trial will be closely watched, with many awaiting answers to the myriad of questions raised. As the lines between ancient religions, pop culture, and criminal defense blur, one must wonder: How will the Delphi murder case reshape our understanding of these intersections?

Could an ancient Norse religion be the key to unlocking the Delphi murder mystery? In the latest episode of "Hidden Killers," Tony Brueski, in conversation with Defense Attorney Bob Motta, host of "Defense Diaries," delves into the recent developments in the Delphi murder case. The conversation revolves around new documents that have surfaced, which Brueski describes as "some of the most disturbing that I think I've seen." Motta, with years of legal experience under his belt, expressed his astonishment at the filing, which was dropped unexpectedly in the early hours of a Thursday morning. He explained that the defense has filed a motion for a Frank's hearing. "Essentially, where the defense is coming in and they're saying, okay, in order to get a warrant, law enforcement came in, lied to the judge in order to secure the warrant," Motta clarified. The defense's claim is not just a baseless accusation. They backed their motion with a comprehensive 136-page memorandum. Motta emphasized the gravity of the document, stating, "With the Franks hearing, they have to come with specificity. You have to come with receipts." The crux of the defense's argument is startling. They suggest that Richard Allen, the man arrested for the murders of Abigail Williams and Liberty German, is not just presumed innocent but is actually innocent. The real culprits? A group of Odinists, practitioners of an ancient Norse religion. Motta elaborated on the defense's theory, "They're basically saying that Richard Allen is not just presumed innocent, but he's actually innocent and that it's a group of Odinists." This revelation led to a discussion on Odinism, a religion that worships Odin, the Norse God, and other deities from Viking mythology. The defense's memorandum goes into meticulous detail about the crime scene, suggesting ritualistic elements that might be linked to Odinist practices. Among the evidence cited are specific arrangements of sticks and branches and a rune, possibly written in one of the victim's blood. However, the defense's claims don't stop there. They allege that law enforcement, upon discovering these ritualistic elements, consulted an unidentified professor from Purdue University. This professor supposedly dismissed the idea that the killings were ritualistic in nature, leading law enforcement to abandon this line of investigation. Motta highlighted the defense's struggle to identify this mystery professor, with no documentation or name provided in the police reports. This leads to further questions about the integrity of the investigation. The defense's memorandum presents extensive information about four individuals known to practice Odinism, complete with social media posts and other evidence. This is anticipated to be their alternate suspect defense. But why is this significant? The defense is essentially challenging the evidence that led to the search of Richard Allen's house, where a crucial piece of evidence was found: a gun. An unspent 40 caliber was discovered between the victims, and a similar weapon was found at Allen's residence. The prosecution claims that tool markings can link the unspent casing to Allen's gun, making it a pivotal piece of evidence. As the revelations from the podcast episode continue to ripple through the community, one can't help but wonder: Is the defense onto something groundbreaking, or is this a strategy to divert attention from their client? Only time will tell how these new revelations will impact the Delphi murder case. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Exculpatory Evidence Withheld: The memorandum alleges that the prosecution withheld crucial evidence, including a letter containing information that could prove the innocence of the accused, Richard Allen. This letter, sent by former Rushville Assistant Police Chief Todd Click, expressed concerns about the direction of the investigation and the evidence against Allen. Richard Allen's Innocence: The document strongly asserts that Richard Allen, the accused, has no connections to Odinism or any pagan cult. Furthermore, no forensic evidence, such as DNA or electronic data, links Allen to the crime scene. Odinists in Westville Correctional Facility: The memorandum suggests that members of the Odinist cult are employed as corrections officers at Westville Correctional Facility, where Richard Allen is allegedly being threatened and mentally abused. Quotes from the Document: "Overwhelming evidence in this case supports the following: Members of a pagan Norse religion, called Odinism, hijacked by white nationalists, ritualistically sacrificed Abigail Williams and Liberty German." "BH was never considered a suspect in the murders of Abby and Libby. State Trooper Jerry Holeman, one of the law enforcement officers in charge of organizing and investigating the Delphi murders, claimed in his August 10, 2023 deposition that Brad Holder was not really ever a suspect." "Richard Allen has zero connections to any pagan cult or pagan cultists, and furthermore no forensic evidence (such as DNA) or electronic evidence links Richard Allen to the girls or to the crime scene." Conclusion: The memorandum presents a compelling argument for the reevaluation of the evidence and the direction of the Delphi murder investigation. The potential involvement of Odinists and the subsequent dismissal of this angle by law enforcement raises serious questions about the integrity of the investigation. As the case continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how these new revelations will impact the pursuit of justice for Abigail Williams and Liberty German.

Could a misunderstood ancient religion be the key to unraveling the Delphi murder case? In a recent episode of "Hidden Killers," Tony Brueski delves into the perplexing Delphi murder case with psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott. The conversation centers around the arrest of Richard Allen and the potential involvement of a group practicing Odinism, an ancient Norse religion. But as the details unfold, the lines between pop culture, white supremacy, and genuine religious beliefs become increasingly blurred. "Odinism is what is in question," Brueski states, highlighting the defense's claim of a potential cover-up involving those guarding Richard Allen. He admits, "I've not known anything about Odinism," despite its Norse origins. Scott elaborates on the recent resurgence of Odinism in pop culture, attributing its popularity to TV shows like "Vikings." However, she points out a concerning trend: "The white supremacist movement did kind of latch on... to this pagan Norse God kind of thing." The conversation takes a turn when Brueski questions the attraction of extremist groups to ancient religions. Scott suggests that such groups often seek a sense of belonging and identity. "They reject traditional Christianity and Judaism... and they've just attached to this idea that they're somehow closer affiliated with the Norse gods," she explains. The influence of TV shows, she believes, can't be underestimated, especially on "weak-minded people." But how does this relate to the Delphi murder case? The defense's narrative suggests a ritualistic killing connected to Odinism. Brueski, taken aback by the term "sacrificial killing," asks Scott about the plausibility of such claims. Scott is skeptical: "I do think we would know... if there had been multiple murders committed by a pagan religious group or Odinists... This has never even been speculative before." Scott further questions the defense's strategy, suggesting that the introduction of Odinism might be a desperate attempt to introduce doubt. "Is this something that we really need to be looking into? Apparently, we need to look into it, but the odds are, in my view, that this is... another creative defense attorney trying to come up with something that's pretty indefensible," she opines. The episode concludes with both Brueski and Scott pondering the implications of the defense's claims. While the connection between Odinism, white supremacy, and the Delphi murder case remains tenuous, it's clear that the trial will be closely watched, with many awaiting answers to the myriad of questions raised. As the lines between ancient religions, pop culture, and criminal defense blur, one must wonder: How will the Delphi murder case reshape our understanding of these intersections?

Could an ancient Norse religion be the key to unlocking the Delphi murder mystery? In the latest episode of "Hidden Killers," Tony Brueski, in conversation with Defense Attorney Bob Motta, host of "Defense Diaries," delves into the recent developments in the Delphi murder case. The conversation revolves around new documents that have surfaced, which Brueski describes as "some of the most disturbing that I think I've seen." Motta, with years of legal experience under his belt, expressed his astonishment at the filing, which was dropped unexpectedly in the early hours of a Thursday morning. He explained that the defense has filed a motion for a Frank's hearing. "Essentially, where the defense is coming in and they're saying, okay, in order to get a warrant, law enforcement came in, lied to the judge in order to secure the warrant," Motta clarified. The defense's claim is not just a baseless accusation. They backed their motion with a comprehensive 136-page memorandum. Motta emphasized the gravity of the document, stating, "With the Franks hearing, they have to come with specificity. You have to come with receipts." The crux of the defense's argument is startling. They suggest that Richard Allen, the man arrested for the murders of Abigail Williams and Liberty German, is not just presumed innocent but is actually innocent. The real culprits? A group of Odinists, practitioners of an ancient Norse religion. Motta elaborated on the defense's theory, "They're basically saying that Richard Allen is not just presumed innocent, but he's actually innocent and that it's a group of Odinists." This revelation led to a discussion on Odinism, a religion that worships Odin, the Norse God, and other deities from Viking mythology. The defense's memorandum goes into meticulous detail about the crime scene, suggesting ritualistic elements that might be linked to Odinist practices. Among the evidence cited are specific arrangements of sticks and branches and a rune, possibly written in one of the victim's blood. However, the defense's claims don't stop there. They allege that law enforcement, upon discovering these ritualistic elements, consulted an unidentified professor from Purdue University. This professor supposedly dismissed the idea that the killings were ritualistic in nature, leading law enforcement to abandon this line of investigation. Motta highlighted the defense's struggle to identify this mystery professor, with no documentation or name provided in the police reports. This leads to further questions about the integrity of the investigation. The defense's memorandum presents extensive information about four individuals known to practice Odinism, complete with social media posts and other evidence. This is anticipated to be their alternate suspect defense. But why is this significant? The defense is essentially challenging the evidence that led to the search of Richard Allen's house, where a crucial piece of evidence was found: a gun. An unspent 40 caliber was discovered between the victims, and a similar weapon was found at Allen's residence. The prosecution claims that tool markings can link the unspent casing to Allen's gun, making it a pivotal piece of evidence. As the revelations from the podcast episode continue to ripple through the community, one can't help but wonder: Is the defense onto something groundbreaking, or is this a strategy to divert attention from their client? Only time will tell how these new revelations will impact the Delphi murder case. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Could the Delphi murder case be far more intricate than previously thought? In a riveting episode of "Hidden Killers," Tony Brueski delves deep into the Delphi murder case with Defense Attorney Bob Motta, host of "Defense Diaries." The conversation uncovers a myriad of names, potential suspects, and a web of connections that might change the narrative surrounding the tragic event. "There's a lot of other people named in this affidavit," Brueski begins, hinting at the complexity of the case. Motta adds, "Some name we even have... where it talks about one talking to their sister and admitting involvement in the murder professing details that no one else would know." The chilling revelation suggests that there might be individuals, currently free, who have intimate knowledge of the crime. Brueski poses a pressing question: "Is this, I mean, are we going to see some new arrests made here or is this still going to be digging in?" The implication is clear: there might be more to the story than the current focus on Richard Allen. Motta's response is equally unsettling. "It's not just the one guy. It's like it's a group. Every single guy that they talk about, they come with receipts." He refers to tangible evidence, including Facebook pages and other online traces, that seem to corroborate some of the claims made in the affidavit. The conversation takes a darker turn as Motta discusses the defense's strategy and the potential implications of their findings. "The defense is trying to offset that," he says, referring to the state's theory of the case. Motta expresses concerns about the defense potentially alienating the judge with their aggressive approach, especially given the discrepancies between police reports and the affidavit. However, the most shocking revelation revolves around the alleged confession of Richard Allen. Motta explains, "This bombshell dropped that Richard Allen had confessed two to three times over a recorded jail call to his wife that he had killed the girls." Yet, the defense claims that Allen might have been coerced into confessing due to threats from prison guards who are believed to be Odinists, a pagan religious group. Motta elaborates on the Odinist angle, suggesting that some of the guards and possibly other inmates might be involved in the group. "These guards were wearing patches that said 'In Odin we trust' on their government-issued uniforms," he reveals. The defense alleges that these Odinist guards might have tried to film Allen during attorney-client visits, potentially violating his rights. The conversation then shifts to the broader implications of the Odinist connection. Brueski wonders, "How common are ritualistic killings in this area with Odinists?" Motta responds by mentioning another unsolved case involving two young girls who died in an arson attack. He also touches upon the potential racial motive behind the murders, hinting at a relationship between one of the victims and a person directly linked to the Odinists. As the episode concludes, Brueski is visibly shaken. "It's something else," he murmurs, reflecting the gravity of the revelations. As the Delphi murder case continues to unravel, one is left wondering: How deep does this web of connections go, and are we any closer to uncovering the truth?
