Richard Allen’s Defense Strikes Back The Evidence the Prosecution Rejected

The Delphi murders case took a shocking turn when inmate Ricci Davis claimed that Ron Logan, the original person of interest, confessed to the crime while behind bars. But rather than investigate the claims, the prosecution dismissed them outright—calling Davis an unreliable jailhouse informant and pointing to his failed polygraph test as proof that his story couldn’t be trusted. But was this a fair assessment, or was the state more concerned about protecting their conviction of Richard Allen than uncovering the full truth?

In this episode, we break down the prosecution’s response to the Ricci Davis letters, analyzing their reasoning, their outright refusal to follow up on his claims, and whether they may have intentionally ignored evidence that didn’t fit their version of events. Why were Logan’s inconsistencies dismissed despite his past deception? Why was Kegan Kline’s possible involvement never fully explored? And most importantly, if Allen was the real killer, why did these new allegations send prosecutors into defense mode?

Join us as we unpack the legal, ethical, and investigative implications of the state’s handling of these letters. Was this just a weak lead that deserved to be tossed aside, or could this have been the key to uncovering what really happened to Abby and Libby? And if the prosecution was so certain that Davis was lying—why does their response feel more like damage control than due diligence?
