Delphi Murders: Richard Allen & The Search For The Truth

Delphi Murders: Richard Allen & The Search For The Truth

Injustice isn’t just a possibility—it’s a reality. Delphi Murders: Richard Allen & The Search For The Truth dives deep into the shocking failures of the investigation into the brutal murders of Abby Williams and Liberty German. Hosted by Tony Brueski, this podcast unpacks the glaring inconsistencies, the ignored evidence, and the disturbing judicial process that led to the conviction of a man who may very well be innocent. Why did investigators shift focus away from Ron Logan, the man whose property was the crime scene? Why was Richard Allen, with no direct physical evidence linking him to the crime, put on trial in what many are calling a sham? And how did law enforcement and prosecutors seemingly manipulate the narrative to fit a conclusion they needed rather than the truth? We explore every angle, every lead that was dismissed, and every questionable move made by those in charge. Featuring exclusive interviews, expert analysis, and in-depth reporting, Delphi Murders: Richard Allen & The Search For The Truth is dedicated to uncovering what really happened—and holding those responsible accountable. If you believe in justice, if you believe in truth, then you need to listen.
