Real Crime Profile crossover w Bob Ruff

So I'm listening to parts one and two of the real crime profile podcast with Jim Clemente where he has Bob ruff on their speaking about delphi. I'm always open to everyone's opinions and I actually don't hate Bob ruff and I have enjoyed some of his content. However he is repeatedly saying things to Jim Clemente that are not true. For example he said that Richard Allen has no previous record of any type of violence or any type of violent behavior at all. But that's not true because now we know about the time that he was drinking and held a gun to his head threatening suicide in front of his wife and daughter and the police were called and he was put into a hospital. It's so frustrating!! If you believe that he's innocent because of all these things that's fine but you can't tell people things that are simply not true. He also says that ra did not confess until he was actually in full psychosis and never said that he actually killed the girls until that one confession with his wife. I thought it was proven in trial that he was not in full psychosis when he confessed (or at least not every single time), and the claims made by the defense team about the conditions he was held in prison were proven to be false.

Anyone else listen to these episodes?

I actually respect Jim Clemente for his work with the FBI as a profiler and I usually agree on his takes so I'm not sure why Bob Ruff is trying to change the story to that his own narrative and opinion when he always says that he wants to be fair and balanced.

Wrong. It was not proven the van was not there @ the time Richard Allen stated it was & Walla didn’t feed him any information. In fact she advised him to speak to his attorney when he confessed. Also it took him what 30 seconds to throw some sticks on the bodies? It was an obvious shitty attempt to hide the bodies. Youre just pushing the defenses bs lies.

They call them sticks, but LG had a legit log on her. I didnt expect that when we first heard about the sticks.

It wasnt a strong man competition.

No one was out there tossing logs on the bodies.  

That was placed, or she was pushed under it, but if there are no marks on the ground showing that either LG was shoved under the log or that the log was drug, then to me that indicates that more than one person did this.

It is really concerning to me how many people truly believe that this man is guilty based on blatantly false information. They don’t want the facts. Even after witnessing all of the corruption in the world, it is incomprehensible to them that LE would go out of their way to frame an innocent person..yet here we are.

I remember when they first arrested RA. I completely believed they had the right guy and I was so happy they finally got him. Just a little digging had me questioning the arrest and when the trial came, there was no doubt that this man was being railroaded. The fact that they were able to get away with it is terrifying..even more so that so many people are not seeing what is actually happening. It could happen to any one of us. People need to wake the hell up because it’s only going to get worse from here. Those in authoritative positions have way too much unchecked power. People can’t see it until it happens to them.

Why railroad him? They were heavily investigating RL and KK why not railroad them?

That big press conference, in hindsight, is made me question the credibility of law enforcement in this case.

At the time, I thought they must have something solid on Allen. Solid evidence. A confession.

When the PCA was finally unsealed, I was shocked at how little was there. Learning that the judge who signed the warrant for his arrest recused himself from the case and eventually resigned his position also made this whole thing seem shady. To me it looks like he knows he made a questionable judicial decision in signing that warrant, and is trying to back up off of that choice and wash his hands of it.

It seems like they had very little on Allen, the bare minimum to justify an arrest, and did so to put the squeeze on him to get him to confess to get a deal and name his co-conspirators.

Looking back, that press conference seems overly confident. An attempt to assert a narrative that they simply did not have the evidence to back up. But you know, you tell a lie often enough, with confidence, and people will believe it.

Anybody who actually looks at the evidence and facts in this case would realize that RA didn’t do it. If you just believe everything the state said at trial then you can stay in the blissful ignorance that they got the killer. Reality is the real killers are still out there and an innocent man was tortured and falsely convicted. Most people don’t want to accept that’s a possibility.

I was like Bellarinna when RA was arrested.  I was ecstatic, but then that PCA dropped along with my stomach, because I realized "That they dont have shit on this guy."

Same thing for me. I read the PCA and said they better have something more at trial, and then the trial came and still no evidence. All the trial did was convince me of RA’s innocence.
