Jury hears jailhouse confessions Richard Allen made to his wife | Trial Day 12 | DELPHI DEBRIEF

The state rested its case against Richard Allen Thursday. Before it did, the jury heard Allen in his own voice, in his own words, confess to his wife and mother on the phone that he killed Abby and Libby. Thursday morning, the prosecution played seven phone calls Allen made from prison, five of them where he confesses to his wife Kathy that he committed the murders. In one of those calls, from April 2023, Allen tells his wife, “I did it…I killed Abby and Libby.” The prosecution also replayed the video from Libby’s phone with “Bridge Guy” telling Abby and Libby, “down the hill.” Prosecutor Nicholas McLeland asked Indiana State Police Master Trooper Brian Harshman, who’s listened to all 700 calls Allen made from jail in the past two years, if he recognizes the voice on the video. Harshman looked right at the defendant and said: “It’s the voice of Richard Allen.” Thursday afternoon, the defense began presenting its case, calling two witnesses. The first said she was on the Monon High Bridge the day of the murders with a friend and saw a man who didn’t respond when they said hi. The second witness, who lives across the creek from where the girls’ bodies were found, testified she saw a man she didn’t recognize standing near a group of mailboxes near her house that day. She said she didn’t get a good look at the man’s face and has never seen him again. MORE: https://www.wthr.com/article/news/cri...
