In ninety-four pages, the Indiana Attorney General never once explains why the man who confessed to killing Abby Williams and Libby German told his prison psychiatrist he shot them. They were not shot. That detail — documented in the defense's appeal brief — is where the entire credibility of the State's case either holds or collapses. And the AG's response does not touch it. Richard Allen is serving 130 years for the murders of two Delphi teenagers near the Monon High Bridge in February 2017. His appellate attorneys raised three constitutional issues — an unconstitutional search warrant built on omissions and altered witness statements, confessions extracted after more than thirteen months in solitary confinement, and a trial where critical defense evidence was systematically excluded. The AG's answer to all of it is harmless error. The eyewitness sketch the jury never saw — harmless. The firearms expert blocked from testifying about whether a bullet could actually be linked to Allen — harmless. The phone calls where Allen questioned his own sanity minutes before and after confessing — harmless. Confessions where he described killing the girls by shooting, when they were killed with a blade — apparently reliable enough for the State of Indiana. Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down the AG's response across a full three-part panel. Session one examines the State's procedural strategy — waiver arguments designed to shut down most of the appeal before reaching substance, the claim that thirteen months in solitary does not meet the coercion standard, and the religious conversion explanation for the confessions. Session two targets the two factual problems the State cannot solve — the van timeline, where surveillance footage and FBI cell phone data obtained by the defense suggest the van arrived after Libby's phone had already stopped moving, and the wrong cause of death in Allen's confession. No DNA. No murder weapon. No direct eyewitness identification. The confessions were the entire case. Session three: what comes next. The defense reply brief. The motion for oral arguments. What a partial win means for a man serving 130 years. What this does to the families of Abby and Libby who were told a verdict meant it was over. And an honest assessment of what reversal rates actually measure. If the State's case is as strong as they claim, the question Bob asks is simple — why did they need to bury so much evidence to win it?
