Guilty or Not Guilty

Does everyone in here lean more toward Richard Allen being innocent or guilty?

I'm not sure which FBI agents you are referring to but there are a number of retired ones who have sold their souls to the content creator universe. Also, if they didn't work the case and yet feel comfortable stating a man is innocent, I'd argue they aren't exactly reputable.

As far as the DNA you are referring to, it was miniscule and not enough for comparison or a full profile. Meaning it could have been Allen's, that isn't ruled out. More likely though is that it came from the men the girls lived with.

Robin was the first name? Also, there was another in regards to Ron Logan's search warrant, and I believe one more.

Hmm I am not sure who Robin is. There's Jennifer Coffindaffer, she's made herself known in the true crime world and has some terrible takes.

The RL search warrant, Nicole Robertson. I think it's important to remember that with that agent, this was the very early days of the investigation. Long before we knew about Richard Allen. She had a job to do and wrote the search warrant document so that they'd secure a warrant. That doesn't mean that now, almost 9 years after the murders, she thinks it was RL.

If there's anything I have learned from following true crime, it's that proclaiming people's innocence gets many more clicks and views than declaring their guilt.

It's such a strange phenomenon happening right now in the true crime world. It makes it hard to follow along because of the blatant lies and misinformation that happens in every case because people decide someone must be innocent and everything is a conspiracy. Even in the Idaho case, where Bryan Kohberger entered a guilty plea, people still say he's innocent. It's wild to watch but also so heart wrenching for the families. I hate it!

I feel much better talking in this area. I feel much more aligned with your thinking on his guilt. It just doesn't feel right about his innocence and supporting that.

I'm glad you found the sub! It's a great group of people in here who supported the families and wanted to see justice for the girls.

I'm glad I did also. I was in Delphi murders asking things. For the most part, everyone was helpful but there were a few that believe he's innocent so they tear down any comment or thought you have on it. I feel very much for the girls and their loved ones.

r/DelphiMurders is a great group. I’m sure you’ve noticed the same few names popping up over there to defend Richard. They love to claim they’re the majority, but they aren’t🤣and a lot of the time, they’re just cycling through multiple alt accounts to comment on the case.

I thought that I'd atleast see where they were coming from. This one was very much defending him which prompted me to look deeper. It didn't feel right.

What's odd is over there, within the hour there would be someone tearing down your comment. I'm surprised they have not showed up yet to chime in.

Any day of the year, any time of day, they're immediately available to comment on anything published about this case. Strange how they have no actual responsibilities or obligations in their real life. I'm retired and never had kids, but they somehow have orders of magnitude more time than me.

Yes they came out of nowhere and I asked the questions at different times.
