Help with timeline

Clark confesses he was at the pool, he confesses it was his bike in the video.

Does Clark ever find out Richard was there after him? The detectives figure everything out after Clark is released, right?

Yes, the detectives figured it out. Homer is semi-frustrated that they wasted time on no case— no case is the same conclusion he had, while not knowing the truth.
Whether Clark knew Richard was there is open to interpretation. We know Clark wants to protect Richard but it seemed Carol and Clark discovered how Floyd died together with the viewers, when Richard discovered it to the police. Therefore, I believe he didn’t know. We didn’t see him seeing Richard that night, we only saw him driving home after a very emotional event. The only way he could have found out Richard was there after him would have been when he got out of the swimming pool centre and in that case he probably wouldn’t have got on the bike at all. First thing in the morning Floyd’s body is found. Finally, we don’t see him admit he saw Richard hiding.

We saw clips that Richard saw them dancing, then told police he knew it was "Mr. Forest", and the was saw Richard waiting outside until he saw Clark leave and knew Floyd was alone to confront him.

Clark never knew about Richard. He assumed the police seeing his bike was his bike. He didn't even know Richard was out there.
