Richard Allen, who was sentenced to 130 years in prison for the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German, has confessed to the crimes in phone calls from prison. In recordings obtained by a YouTube poster, Allen can be heard repeatedly telling his wife that he killed the two girls. Initially, his wife didn’t believe him and thought he may be having mental health issues. However, Allen continued to insist on his guilt in subsequent phone calls. His defense team had tried to argue that his confessions were a result of a psychotic break while in prison, but the co-hosts of the “Murder Sheet Podcast” noted that Allen’s statements did not align with typical characteristics of a psychotic episode. The recordings have provided the public with a chance to hear Allen’s voice and evaluate the evidence for themselves. Allen is currently appealing his conviction, and his attorneys are working on filing a brief outlining the parts of the trial they believe violated his rights, potentially leading to a new trial. The case has garnered significant attention and sparked discussions about the nature of Allen’s confessions and their impact on the ongoing legal proceedings.
