11th-hour filings set the stage for accused Delphi murder suspect's hearing

Indiana State Police announced Oct. 31 that Allen, 50, of Delphi, was detained Oct. 26, arrested and charged Oct. 28 with murder for the killings of Libby German and Abby Williams on Feb. 13, 2017.

Meanwhile, Richard Allen's attorney filed a motion Monday arguing that Allen should be released on his own recognizance or have bond set. The only exception for entitlement to bond is murder and treason. Typically most defendants charged with murder do not receive bond. However, bond may be granted if the case does not appear to lean favorably to the the state's case, according to Indiana law.

In the brief, the attorneys for the news outlets cite a Nebraska case, arguing,"Secrecy of judicial action can only breed ignorance and distrust of courts and suspicion concerning the competence and impartiality of judges” and “free and robust reporting, criticism and debate can … subject to the cleansing efforts of exposur and public accountability.

This is one of the saddest and most shameful stories I've read about since moving out of Indiana in 1995. I'm so sorry for both families. At the same time, I'm not shocked it happened either. I can't believe I raised my kids in Indiana. I unintentionally handicapped them.

Please God, innocent or guilty. Dont let them fuck this one up.

My fear is that the Carroll county prosecutor’s got nothing but circumstantial evidence.
