In the latest episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," defense attorney Bob Motta, host of "Defense Diaries," provides an update on the legal proceedings in the case against Richard Allen, the alleged Delphi murderer. Motta discusses several motions brought by the defense, including a motion to compel and a motion for sanctions against the state for delayed discovery. The defense argues that critical evidence has been withheld, with some information coming months past deadlines, hampering their ability to prepare for trial. One key point is the contention that law enforcement failed to extract data from Brad Holder’s phone, a potential suspect, despite extracting data from 101 other phones. Motta criticizes the handling of this evidence, suggesting it could exonerate Allen. Additionally, the defense filed a motion to dismiss based on claims that law enforcement intentionally destroyed or withheld exculpatory evidence. The trial, set for October, faces further complications due to these discovery issues, and the judge's decisions on these motions will significantly impact the case's direction.

### Main Points

- **Motion to Compel**: Defense requests timely discovery from the prosecution.

- **Motion for Sanctions**: Sanctions requested due to delayed and missing discovery materials.
