They knew that solitary confinement could worsen Allen's Major Depressive Disorder. They knew it could cause psychosis. Their own written policy restricts inmates with serious mental illness to 30 days in solitary for exactly that reason. They held Richard Allen in solitary for 13 months. By April 2023, the man who would later confess to the Delphi murders weighed 45 pounds less than when he arrived at Westville. He was, in the defense's own words, gravely disabled. He was eating his Bible. He was drinking from the toilet. He was asking his own father how much longer he could stay lucid. The Indiana Attorney General now argues that none of this rises to coercion. The State offered a religious-conversion theory to explain Allen's confessions instead. The defense has documented a psychiatric collapse. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski for Part Two of a three-part panel on the Delphi appeal. They sit with the institutional knowledge the State had before it ever put Richard Allen in that cell, and the decision the State made to leave him there anyway. They get into what an appeals court does when a state agency violates its own written rule by more than a year and then asks a panel of judges to call the resulting confession voluntary. They walk through the religious-conversion narrative the State is selling and the medical record sitting underneath it. Three judges. Indiana's own rulebook. The State's own warning. A pretrial detainee who lost his mind in a cell he was never supposed to be in.
