According to the defense's appellate filings, an ISP Trooper found "concerning similarity" between the Delphi murders and a suspect who had been flagged repeatedly by tipsters for posting images of dead girls with sticks over their bodies on social media. He pushed for further investigation. His superiors said no.

This same suspect, according to the filings, sat across from investigators four days after the murders and admitted to practicing pagan rituals involving bloodletting. He owned a .40 caliber firearm — the same caliber as the round recovered at the crime scene. They recorded his interview. The Delphi Police erased the tape. They never collected the gun. When officers went to verify his alibi, his employer offered surveillance footage. They declined to review it and marked him cleared. In 2018, he allegedly created a painting of Odin hanging upside down — right leg tucked behind the left — matching how one victim was positioned at the scene. His associate, a self-described pagan religious leader who reportedly knew the murder woods "very well," had his interview go unrecorded. His alibi wasn't checked for six years. Neither man has been charged.

The jury that convicted Richard Allen heard none of this. The defense argued it should have been admitted as third-party suspect evidence. The trial court excluded it.

On the other side of the appeal is the document that started the case against Allen. Detective Liggett's probable cause affidavit allegedly misrepresented witness descriptions to connect Allen to Bridge Guy. Betsy Blair described a young man in his twenties with poofy brown hair — not a 44-year-old with a crew cut. The defense says those physical details were omitted while her jacket description was kept. Blair reportedly told Liggett these were two different men. Without this warrant, the defense argues, there's no search, no gun, no bullet, no arrest, no confessions. A Franks hearing to challenge the warrant was denied. An appellate court will now decide whether the exclusions and the omissions matter enough to change the outcome.
