Will Prosecutions Destroyed Evidence FREE Richard Allen?

Psychotherapist Breaks Down The Clear FALSE & FORCED Confession Calls Of Delphi Accused Richard Allen What happens when an alleged confession comes from someone in the middle of a complete psychotic break? This episode dives deep into some of the disturbing phone calls and jailhouse recordings that many are pointing to as proof of guilt in the Delphi murders—only there's a glaring problem. The confessions are coming from a man who may not even know what's real anymore. Between drinking toilet water, eating Bible pages, and singing while masturbating on the floor, this isn't your average criminal profile. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to unpack whether any of this could—or should—hold up in court. Is this really justice, or just the unraveling of someone broken by the system? Can someone so far gone truly confess to anything? #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrimeToday #PsychoticBreak #HiddenKillersPodcast #ShavaunScott #FalseConfession Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Breaking Down Delphi - Richard Allen False Confession Jail Calls Part 2 Episode 2:  Richard Allen was an ordinary man until he faced extraordinary cruelty in solitary confinement, a punishment typically reserved for dangerous convicted inmates—not individuals still awaiting trial. Over a year into his isolation, Allen's jailhouse phone calls with loved ones illustrate his slow descent into psychological ruin. His words become fragmented, desperate, and confused, clearly illustrating a man forced into a state of despair so deep he'd confess falsely just to stop the torment. This episode intimately reveals Allen's psychological unraveling, from expressing confusion and self-doubt to shockingly admitting guilt in a crime he insists elsewhere he never committed. Allen even promises his wife he will falsely confess if it means ending her pain and his unbearable conditions—highlighting a heartbreaking willingness to sacrifice truth in a futile bid for mercy. Richard Allen's tragic situation serves as a cautionary tale about the immense damage solitary confinement and mistreatment inflicts on human minds. This poignant exploration forces listeners to confront uncomfortable questions about justice, mental health care in prisons, and the disturbing ease with which innocence can be crushed by systemic abuse.

What happens when flawed forensics and relentless pressure collide in the interrogation room? Richard Allen’s interrogation in connection to the Delphi murders wasn’t just aggressive—it was an unsettling blend of manipulation, outdated techniques, and a total disregard for modern psychological understanding. Tony Brueski teams up with psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott to dissect the disturbing tactics used by investigators, who allegedly relied on made-up expert evidence and relentless emotional pressure in hopes of forcing a confession. Allen’s initial interviews reveal a man who sounds rational, lucid, and—most of all—genuinely confused as to why he’s being treated like the fall guy in a case that still haunts Indiana. Is this a textbook example of how to break someone down, or a masterclass in how to pin it on the wrong guy? #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrimePodcast #WrongfulAccusation #PoliceInterrogation #HiddenKillers #ShavaunScott Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott Breaks Down The Initial Delphi Police Interrogation of Richard Allen How do you get a man to confess to something he didn’t do? Easy—just throw every shady interrogation tactic in the book at him and hope something sticks. When Richard Allen was brought in for questioning about the alleged Delphi murders of Abby and Libby, the detectives didn’t exactly hold back. They leaned hard into psychological warfare: outdated Law & Order tricks, misleading “evidence,” and emotional manipulation that made it feel more like a 1950s TV drama than a modern investigation. With no confession and no solid evidence, they just kept pushing. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to analyze the interrogation—clip by painful clip. What does it do to someone’s mind when they’re accused of something horrific, and they know they didn’t do it? How do cops justify dragging someone to the edge of a breakdown just to close a case? And at what point does this stop looking like an investigation and start looking like a setup? Is Richard Allen really just an ordinary guy caught in the worst kind of nightmare? #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrime #PoliceInterrogation #WrongfulAccusation #HiddenKillers #ShavaunScott Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Richard Allen Interrogated: The First Time the Public Sees Him Speak PART 2 You Got One Piece of Evidence I Can’t Explain The public is finally hearing the voice of Richard Allen—the man convicted of murdering Abby Williams and Libby German—for the first time, and what he says is as chilling as it is revealing. Newly released videos from YouTuber Tom Webster expose a window into Allen’s world just before and just after his arrest. What starts as firm denial slowly spirals into something a whole lot darker. Allen, sentenced to 130 years in December for the 2017 murders of 13-year-old Abby and 14-year-old Libby, managed to fly under the radar for over five years. Then, on October 26, 2022, he was arrested. But two weeks before that, on October 13, investigators brought him in for questioning. And that interrogation, which is now public, begins with Allen trying to stay cool under pressure. He admits he was on the Monon High Bridge the same day the girls vanished. Not a great start. But when pushed further, he flat-out denies any involvement. The cops didn’t hold back either. At one point, Carroll County Prosecutor’s Office Investigator Steve Mullin throws out a brutal accusation: Either Allen did this to the girls himself, or he helped someone else do it. That’s when Allen pushes back. Hard. “Good luck finding anything that points in that direction,” he says. “You’re not going to make me believe it’s me.” In hindsight, it’s a strange thing to say. He doesn’t say “I didn’t do it” with confidence. Instead, it’s “you’re not going to make me believe it’s me.” Like he’s arguing with his own reflection. By the time we get to the second video—recorded the day of his arrest—the tone changes. Investigators have an unspent bullet found at the crime scene, and it matches a gun owned by Allen. He’s still in denial, but now, it sounds desperate. “There is no way that evidence is going to show that I did this,” Allen insists. But the police aren’t backing down either. ISP Investigator Jerry Holeman is blunt: “It’s right f---ing here, Rick.” Allen's response? “You got one piece of evidence I can’t explain.” And Holeman hits back with: “I got multiple pieces. Multiple. I’m not showing you my whole f---ing hand here.” It’s a poker game with two people holding very different cards. And it becomes clear Allen knows he's losing. Then come the prison phone calls. Eight of them, between November 2022 and June 2023, shared publicly for the first time. In those calls, Allen talks to his wife and his mother, and that’s where things start unraveling. These aren’t emotional breakdowns or cryptic metaphors—these are confessions. Clear, damning, and hard to walk back. They were played during the trial, but the public never got to hear them until now. Still, Allen’s legal team claims those confessions weren’t given voluntarily. Maybe it was the stress, the isolation, the realization that there’s no way out. Maybe it was all three. But that’s the story they’re sticking to. In March, Allen’s attorneys filed a notice of appeal. They’re trying to undo what the jury decided—that Allen is the man who took two young girls' lives on a cold February day in Delphi. But with videos of him talking before the arrest, and recordings of him admitting guilt afterward, it’s going to be a tough mountain to climb. #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrimePodcast #AbbyAndLibby Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
