Allen defense requests that Delphi Murders jury visit crime scene – Indianapolis News | Indiana Weather | Indiana Traffic

Defense attorneys representing Richard Allen are pushing for jurors in his murder trial to visit the crime scene before reaching a verdict. The attorneys filed a motion on Monday requesting that the jurors be allowed to visit the site where the bodies of Abby Williams and Libby German were found in 2017. They also want the jury to walk the trail where the abduction occurred and see where Allen allegedly parked his car on the day of the crime. Richard Allen is facing murder charges in the case and has maintained his innocence. Prosecutors have not yet filed a response to the motion, and there is no timeline for when a decision might be made. Jury selection is scheduled to start on October 14, with the trial expected to last around five weeks. This development comes after a video on one of the girl’s cell phones captured a man’s voice saying, “Guys, down the hill,” leading to speculations and conspiracy theories surrounding the case. This request for a site visit by jurors adds a new dimension to the trial and has sparked interest and anticipation in the community.
