Delphi murders

[JuneJuneHannah]

Approx 1 hours time. I have no idea which way it will go but swaying towards not guilty.

Is the verdict being shown live from the court anywhere or will we just hear as soon as it's reported outside the courtroom?

 

[What's your point]

Elvis Fields
Brad Weber
Kegan Kline
Kegan’s Dad
Ron Logan
The Unknown ISP officer whose DNA was found on one of the girls
There are even more possibilities of who the real killer(s) are/is than RA
If a confession under torture sways anyone, what do you make of Elvis Fields confession to many people including his sister who passed a lie detector without torture?

You raise some good points and I had forgotten about some of these people.

I'm going to do more research on these as not really followed as much lately so may have missed some information and I might change my mind lol.

It will just be reported.

It might just be me but I feel this trial hasn’t had as much publicity as I thought it would do

It really hasn't. Barely a mention for how high profile a case it was looking. I've found it really hard to follow tbh because of the media restrictions.

I'm watching court tv and hoping they will tell us what the verdict is after it's announced

 

[Aberscot]

smalltownindiana is live on tick tick outside the court, the atmosphere there is tense and lots of people waiting.

He is guilty as sin. The bullet came from his gun, he told police he was there. He confessed and knew stuff only the killer would know. If it weren’t for all the conspiracy theory bulllshit online this would be the most straightforward case ever.

 

[Aberscot]

Guilty on all counts !!!!

The verdict is in?!

 

[Wellthisisinteresting]

OK so I was wrong. I hope it's correct. It was such a shoddy investigation. Rip girls.

Rest peacefully Abby and Libby you both deserved so much better in every way.

They really did, the investigation has been terrible.

 

[kabukigirl]

Oh wow! I wasn’t sure I was expecting it to be guilty, mainly because of the shonky investigation - but I am glad justice looks to have finally been served for those poor girls

 

[Silverback]

It’s inconceivable that they had his statement the whole time saying he was there, yet that went unnoticed for years, absolutely crazy.

 

[Shinythings]

Hopefully the jury will be able to tell us how they reached their verdict. I'm glad that the families may find some peace with this verdict.

I feel very sad, I don't think this verdict is safe at all. Lots of people were on the trail he apparently killed two girls himself in 15 minutes. Sorry doesn't add up.

He might have been involved but the evidence just isn't there for me. The bullet "matched" but other guns couldn't be excluded screams junk science.

Other people had confessed but weren't properly looked into...the judge wouldn't let the info in...

Honestly I think he will get a retrial at least on appeal and if the third party evidence is allowed in I can’t see how he would be acquitted.

RIP Abby and Libby you didn't deserve to die and you didn't deserve such a shoddy investigation into your murders

At the risk of sounding crass, it only takes a few minutes to slit two throats. He said himself he panicked when he saw a van and ended it early (the van that belonged to Mark Webber and became evidence).

Kegan Kline said he knew stuff but it was proven he was in another location at the time. That other guy with a mental age of 7 also confessed but that was discounted because of his mental state and other reasons.

The judge was absolutely right not to let any of that in, along with the Odinist shite. It was baseless. Unfortunately with true crime podcasts, Reddit etc, these big cases get probed for ‘holes in the case’ or ‘alternative suspects’- it’s like it MUST be anyone other than the obvious suspect is to blame.

But no. When someone was at the scene and confessed multiple times, plus a bunch of other evidence, they are guilty. It’s that simple.

 

[Danica Catrick]

I'm shocked. I don't see how they could find him guilty beyond reasonable doubt on the evidence presented, even with how biased the judge was.

Sadly I don't think he'll survive long enough for an appeal.
