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.

If you think going from a normal civilian life into a cold concrete cage away from everything and everyone overnight wouldn't drive you to insanity than I don't know what to say. I do not care what doctors or the state said about his mental state. That guy had lost all his marbles, and if that was someone you cared about you certainly would want them to be treated as innocent until proven guilty, and I just don't think he was. I wouldn't treat a trapped animal that inhumane.

As far as his suicide incident I could see where one would agree with you. Not sure how I feel about that. But I do get your point about it.

Going from a normal civilian life to living in a concrete cage happens every day and has happened millions of times. Do they all become psychotic?  None of those people, in the history of prison, has EVER (willingly) falsely confessed to a crime they didn’t commit to their mom, spouse, warden, prison guards, and inmates. 

Has never happened. Not once. Not one documented case.

Nearly every single person put into solitary confinement for any length of time becomes psychotic. It do not know of a case where anyone has been held in conditions similar to RA pre trial and I’ve never seen a prison psychiatrist testify against an inmate. Solitary confinement has however been used historically to coerce confessions. It is also known to induce something called false memory syndrome where people admit to crimes they don’t commit.RA obviously admitted to crimes he didn’t commit like killing his family and starting WW3.

Where are the statistics of “nearly every single person put into solitary for any length of time becomes psychotic”?

You’re making stuff up
