The Delphi Appeal They Don't Want You to See | Richard Allen's Defense Exposed EVERYTHING
Richard Allen is serving 130 years for the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. The jury has spoken. But his defense team just filed something unprecedented—a request to submit an appeal brief nearly double the standard size. Ten issues. Nine constitutional claims. And a roadmap of everything that went wrong in this case.
In this episode, we break down the five categories of Allen's appeal and what each one reveals about how this conviction was built. From the alternative suspects the jury never heard about—including a man who allegedly confessed to the killings months after they happened—to the 1,200 pages of evidence that was blocked from trial. From the sixty-one confessions made by a man who was also confessing to crimes that provably never happened, to the thirteen months of solitary confinement that the defense says broke his mind.
No DNA linked Richard Allen to the crime scene. The state's own forensic scientist testified to that. The single piece of physical evidence—an unspent bullet—relies on contested toolmark analysis that the defense wasn't fully allowed to challenge. A volunteer clerk caught a filing error that investigators missed for five years. And a judge blocked the jury from hearing about other suspects, erased interview recordings, and an Odinism theory that law enforcement themselves investigated before dropping it without explanation.
This isn't about declaring Richard Allen innocent. It's about asking whether the state proved their case—or just closed it. Whether the jury heard what they needed to hear. Whether this was a constitutional trial or a conviction built on broken confessions and blocked evidence.
The families of Abby and Libby deserve justice. But justice isn't just an ending. It's the right ending.
Full case breakdown. Every appeal issue explained. No speculation—just the facts the defense is putting before the Indiana Court of Appeals.

The Delphi Lead Police IGNORED for Years: Kegan Kline’s Digital Trail Led To Girls
In today’s episode, we take you down the digital side of the Delphi investigation — the part that never made headlines, but quietly drove some of the biggest moves police made in the early days of the case. This is the story of the “anthony_shots” account, the secret life of Kegan Kline, and the bizarre three-year gap between his confession and his arrest.
For years, the public has focused on the man on the bridge, the audio clip, the sketches. But long before any suspect was identified, investigators were already deep into a different lead — a lead buried in social media, fake identities, and digital grooming patterns that traced right back to a small house in Peru, Indiana.
In this episode, we break down the probable cause affidavit tied to Kegan Anthony Kline and show how it lines up with the communications Liberty German had before the murders. We explore why the FBI raided the Kline home just 12 days after Libby and Abby were found, why they interrogated Kegan and polygraphed him the same day, and why he immediately began deleting online accounts and wiping devices the moment he walked out of that interview.
And then we look at the mystery that still hangs over this case:
How did a man with a full confession, multiple devices loaded with child-exploitation material, and a documented pattern of targeting Indiana minors walk free for three full years before a single charge was filed? How does that happen? What does that say about the overlap between his case and the Delphi timeline?
This is not speculation. This is not rumor. This is the story written directly inside the affidavit — a blueprint of how the “anthony_shots” persona was built, how it operated, and why investigators treated Kline as a key digital lead even while the world focused on the physical crime scene.
If you’ve ever wondered how Kline’s case intersects with Delphi, why the investigation stalled and restarted, or why the digital evidence keeps resurfacing years later… this is the breakdown you’ve been waiting for.
Subscribe and stay with us for the deeper truth behind one of the most complicated cases in modern true crime.

Delphi Investigation Exposed: The Stunningly Bad Police Work Behind the Case
In the Delphi murders, the public was told a simple story: the police put the pieces together, the system worked, and justice was finally served. But when you actually read the documents — the transcripts, investigator depositions, Franks filings, internal notes, and the raw exhibits tucked into the case file — a very different picture emerges.
This wasn’t a clean investigation. It wasn’t methodical. It wasn’t disciplined. It was chaotic, fragmented, and politically pressured from the moment Abby and Libby were found. Leads were documented once and never followed up on. Entire suspects — and entire theories — were quietly dropped without explanation. Investigators contradicted each other, forgot key details, and admitted under oath that they weren’t even aware of evidence sitting inside their own case file.
And yet somehow, in year six, the narrative suddenly snapped into place — not because the investigation got better, but because it finally got a suspect it could backfill the story around.
Tonight, we dig into the evidence that was ignored, the leads that were buried, the internal disagreements investigators never wanted the public to see, and the retrofitted logic that shaped the state’s case. This is not about saying who is guilty or innocent — it’s about asking why the most important homicide investigation in modern Indiana history was handled with the kind of inconsistency you’d expect from a case no one was watching.
If this is how the system works when the world is paying attention… what happens in a case where no one is?
Join Tony Brueski as we break down the investigation behind the scenes — the failures, the shortcuts, the missing follow-through, and the real-world consequences of an investigative structure that collapses under pressure.
Subscribe and comment with your thoughts. This case isn’t just about what happened in 2017 — it’s about what kind of justice system we’re willing to accept today.

The Delphi Files Exposed — Inside the Incompetent Investigation That IGNORED Red Flags
In this episode, I’m pulling back every layer of the Delphi murders investigation — the layers the public was never supposed to see. The depositions. The affidavits. The early FBI involvement. The abandoned suspects. The suppressed evidence. The symbolic crime-scene elements no one wanted to touch. The Ron Logan raid the state now pretends never happened. The entire fractured internal world that led to one outcome: an investigation that didn’t point to Richard Allen… but collapsed into him.
This is not the sanitized version of the Delphi story. This is what happens when leadership breaks down, when agencies contradict each other under oath, when key behavioral assessments vanish from the record, and when major suspects — including the closest neighbor to the crime scene — are aggressively pursued and then quietly erased once they become inconvenient.
I walk you through the FBI’s raid on Ron Logan’s home and why the affidavit said there was probable cause he was involved. Why Odinist suspects were ignored. Why symbolic indicators were buried. Why the BAU’s ritual assessment disappeared. Why the bullet had no field documentation. Why investigators contradicted each other about the timeline, about the FBI’s involvement, about who was actually running the case.
This isn’t about guilt or innocence. This is about an investigation so fractured, so disorganized, and so unwilling to face its own failures that it needed an answer — any answer — after years of pressure. And that answer became Richard Allen.
This is Delphi without the PR spin. And it’s long past time the public saw it.

Holeman’s Testimony EXPOSES How Badly Delphi Was Investigated-WEEK IN REVIEW
In today’s episode, we take a hard, relentless look at Lieutenant Jerry Holeman’s testimony in the Delphi murders case — and what it reveals about the investigation that led to the conviction of Richard Allen. This isn’t speculation. This isn’t rumor. This is straight from the sworn record: the contradictions, the assumptions, the missing analysis, and the investigative gaps that no one watching the press conferences ever got to see.
Holeman was positioned as one of the state’s anchors — a senior Indiana State Police investigator expected to bring clarity and confidence to a deeply complex double-homicide case. Instead, his testimony exposes just how shaky the investigative foundation really was. Sticks placed on the bodies of Abby and Libby were dismissed as “camouflage,” even though they concealed nothing. Then, suddenly, the state floated a psychological term — “undoing” — that had never appeared in the investigative record, and Holman endorsed it without hesitation.
His certainty about a “single offender” wasn’t based on forensic proof. It came from a belief he stated on the stand: that in multi-offender crimes, “someone usually talks.” Yet the case file contains exactly that — a suspect making disturbing comments investigators inexplicably labeled “no further action.”
We dive into everything Holman didn’t explain: why symbolic elements were barely analyzed, why alternative suspects weren’t vetted, why forensic opportunities were missed, why the bullet lacked field documentation, why major investigative questions were replaced with assumptions, and why his testimony often stood in open conflict with other investigators on essential questions like the FBI’s role.
This isn’t about guilt or innocence. It’s about whether the investigation that shaped the entire Delphi narrative was thorough, consistent, or grounded in evidence. And Holman’s testimony makes it undeniably clear: the holes aren’t small. They’re foundational.
If you care about the truth in Delphi, this breakdown matters.

About Delphi Murders: Richard Allen & The Search For The Truth
Injustice isn’t just a possibility—it’s a reality. Delphi Murders: Richard Allen & The Search For The Truth dives deep into the shocking failures of the investigation into the brutal murders of Abby Williams and Liberty German. Hosted by Tony Brueski, this podcast unpacks the glaring inconsistencies, the ignored evidence, and the disturbing judicial process that led to the conviction of a man who may very well be innocent.
Why did investigators shift focus away from Ron Logan, the man whose property was the crime scene? Why was Richard Allen, with no direct physical evidence linking him to the crime, put on trial in what many are calling a sham? And how did law enforcement and prosecutors seemingly manipulate the narrative to fit a conclusion they needed rather than the truth?
We explore every angle, every lead that was dismissed, and every questionable move made by those in charge. Featuring exclusive interviews, expert analysis, and in-depth reporting, Delphi Murders: Richard Allen & The Search For The Truth is dedicated to uncovering what really happened—and holding those responsible accountable.
If you believe in justice, if you believe in truth, then you need to listen.
