Delphi: The State of Indiana Tortured Richard Allen For 13th Months To Force Confession

Delphi: The State of Indiana Tortured Richard Allen For 13th Months To Force Confession

Before solitary confinement, Richard Allen told investigators he didn't do it. Said it repeatedly under pressure. Said it to his wife. Said it emphatically: "I am not going to say something I did not do." Five months later, his words to his wife had changed: "I think I did it." According to the defense filings, Allen had been held in the most restrictive solitary cell in Westville for thirteen months despite IDOC's thirty-day policy for inmates with his mental health diagnosis. He weighed 135 pounds. He was gravely disabled, psychotic, forcibly injected with antipsychotics. He confessed to shooting the girls — they were killed with a blade. Confessed to acts for which no forensic evidence exists. Made over sixty confessions while prison doctors documented psychosis, paranoia, delusional thinking, and memory loss. His psychologist controlled his privileges. The prosecutor monitored his calls and collected confessions while delaying the defense's emergency transfer motion. A 127-page forensic evaluation found no malingering and attributed the psychosis to the well-documented effects of solitary. By August 2023, Allen couldn't remember weeks of his own life. The jury heard the confessions but never the audio of his psychotic state, never the expert who would have explained them as false. This episode documents how thirteen months in the hole turned a defiant denial into sixty broken confessions.
