Summary

The Indiana Attorney General filed their formal answer to the Richard Allen appeal. Ninety-four pages. "Conclusive and irrefutable," they call it.

We've read every word. And the thing that stands out most is what those 94 pages choose not to say.

According to the defense's appeal brief, Richard Allen told his prison psychiatrist that he shot the girls. Abby Williams and Libby German were not shot. The State's response — all 94 pages of it — never touches that detail. They call the confessions voluntary. They call them credible. They call them the product of free will. And they never explain how a man confessing from memory got the manner of death wrong.

In this session, we go inside the State's playbook with defense attorney Bob Motta. We look at how Indiana is using procedural waiver to shut down most of the appeal before it ever reaches substance. We look at their argument that 13 months in solitary confinement as a pretrial detainee simply doesn't constitute coercion. We look at the claim that finding religion in late March 2023 explains the confessions. And we look at harmless error — the phrase that appears attached to every single ruling that went against Allen's defense throughout the entire brief.

We've been on this case from the beginning. This conversation is about what the State's response actually reveals — not just what it argues.
