Day three in this week’s Delphi murders case hearings was almost a preview of what could be come this fall.
Thursday’s court hearing centered around the defense’s desire to introduce Odinism and alternate suspect theories into the trial in an effort to prove suspect Richard Allen did not kill Abigail Williams and Liberty German in 2017. The prosecution, led by Carroll County Prosecutor Nick McLeland, says any theory of third-party suspects is baseless and rooted in misinformation.
Allen’s attorneys, Andrew Baldwin and Brad Rozzi, spent most of Thursday arguing there are legitimate cases to be made against other men in the Delphi area, with ties to Odinism and the victims, committed the crime seven years ago. The defense also claims the murder timeline established by police does not put Allen in the area, and the lawyers go as far as to say geo-tracking data proves their stance.
The court heard testimony from a doctor said to be a subject matter expert in ritualistic killings, which relates back to the Odinism angle.
The doctor testified that there is “no doubt in her mind” that the double murder near the Monon High Bridge was a ritualistic Odinistic killing and that images of “runes” from the Facebook page of one of the named third-party suspects are “basically identical” to the crime scene.
That supposed Facebook post was made a few months after the girls were killed, meaning no one should have known any crime scene details besides the killer and police.
The prosecution claimed the doctor was spoon-fed information by the defense, questioning her credibility as an expert witness.

Umm this is baffling how the judge and the sheriff are just moving him around he should never have been sent to DOC he hasn’t been convicted the judge has a real shady handle in this as if she is protecting someone Richard Allen is an innocent man and how the Supreme Court just allows the corruption unfold is beyond baffling there is something and someone’s being protected from some bizarre sick shit going on and am I fukn a solo person to think so it’s really sad what’s going on here and to the guilty your day in hell will come you sick motherfucker
The whole idea of a trial is to present the “evidence” to a jury. The defense “attorneys” are not doing that. They wish to introduce alternative ideas to the judge. Prove you case in court rather than taking up the taxpayers time and money with misdirection. Wh have too much of this BS every day in the constant political drumbeat.
