The Indiana Supreme Court has rejected Richard Allen’s motion to remove Judge Francis Gull from the Delphi murders case. Allen’s attorneys claimed Gull showed bias in her rulings against him, but the court ruled that Allen had waived his right to relief by filing motions out of time. As a result, Judge Gull will remain on the case, and Allen’s request to have her removed has been denied.
Richard Allen, 51, of Delphi, was arrested in October 2022 for the February 2017 murders of Abigail Williams and Liberty German. The two teenage girls were found dead near the Monon High Bridge in Delphi. Despite Allen’s attempts to challenge Judge Gull’s involvement in the case, the court has upheld her position as the presiding judge. This decision means that the case will continue to move forward under her jurisdiction.
The rejection of Allen’s motion by the Indiana Supreme Court marks a significant development in the high-profile Delphi murders case. The decision to keep Judge Gull on the case indicates that the court has confidence in her ability to oversee the proceedings fairly and impartially. As Allen faces charges related to the brutal murders of Williams and German, the legal process will continue under Judge Gull’s guidance.
