What the Delphi Jury Never Heard — Evidence the Judge Kept Out
from Hidden Killers Live! Daily True Crime News & Breakdowns · host Hidden Killers Podcast
The jury convicted Richard Allen — but the appeal argues they never saw the full picture.They didn’t see the eyewitness sketch rated “10 out of 10” by the witness who helped create it — a sketch that looked nothing like Allen. They didn’t hear expert testimony challenging the reliability of the State’s bullet-matching evidence. They didn’t hear about alternative suspects, unverified alibis, or investigative paths involving ritualistic elements that were explored and then excluded.The jury also never heard audio from Allen’s confinement — only muted video — even as prosecutors described his confessions as “logical and organized.” Timeline evidence that allegedly contradicts the State’s “detail only the killer would know” theory was also kept out.Bob Motta explains what defendants are constitutionally entitled to present, when exclusion of defense evidence becomes reversible error, and whether this trial crossed that line.#DelphiTrial #SuppressedEvidence #WrongfulConvictions #RichardAllen #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeAnalysisJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
