Will The Judge Allow Richard Allen To Present A 3rd Party Culprit In Court?

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," defense attorney Bob Motta discusses the upcoming trial of Richard Allen, focusing on the recent legal motions and their implications for the defense strategy. The trial, set for October, is fast approaching, with Judge Gull recently denying the defense’s motion to dismiss the case. Motta explains that this denial was expected, as such motions are rarely granted. He emphasizes the importance of the timeline in this case, noting that the state has established a narrow window for the time of death based on activity from Libby German’s phone. Motta points out that the defense should challenge this timeline, especially given that the girls' body temperatures were not taken, and no official time of death was determined by the medical examiner. Additionally, ongoing forensic analysis of Libby’s phone, seven years after the crime, could provide the defense with opportunities to create reasonable doubt. Motta suggests that the defense may argue that the phone’s reactivation was intentional by the killer, aiming to ensure the bodies were found. The discussion highlights the critical role that the timeline and phone data will play in the upcoming trial. - Richard Allen's trial is scheduled for October, with critical motions recently ruled on by Judge Gull. - The motion to dismiss was denied, as expected, but provided insight into the judge's perspective on the case. - The defense is likely to focus on challenging the timeline of the crime, which the state has fixed between 2:30 and 3:30 p.m. - The lack of a fixed time of death and ongoing forensic analysis of Libby German’s phone are key areas for the defense. - The defense may argue that the phone’s reactivation was intentional, suggesting the killer wanted the bodies to be found. #RichardAllen #TrueCrime #DefenseStrategy #LegalAnalysis #ForensicEvidence #LibbyGerman #TimelineDiscrepancy Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
