We've been on this case from the beginning. We read the defense's appeal brief. We read the State's 94-page response. And now we're going through all of it — three sessions, one complete picture — with defense attorney Bob Motta.

Here's what frames everything. The State calls the evidence against Richard Allen "conclusive and irrefutable." In those 94 pages they never address the documented fact from the defense's appeal brief that Allen told his prison psychiatrist he shot the girls. Abby Williams and Libby German were not shot.

In the first session, Bob goes through the State's playbook — the procedural waiver strategy, the solitary confinement argument, the religious conversion claim, the harmless error refrain that covers every ruling that went against the defense.

In the second session, he goes through the two factual problems at the core of this case. The van the prosecution called proof the confession was real — and the surveillance footage and FBI data suggesting it arrived after the timeline had already ended. And the confession that got the manner of death wrong — with the State's response being complete silence across 94 pages.

In the third session, he faces forward. The reply brief. Oral arguments. What a partial win means in real terms. What this does to the families who were told a verdict was the end. And an honest answer about what the five percent reversal rate actually tells us.

This is the complete conversation the State's brief was written to avoid.
