The Delphi Warrant — Did Police Mislead the Judge to Get Richard Allen?
0:00
17:29
Everything in the Delphi case traces back to one document: the probable cause affidavit used to search Richard Allen’s home. According to the appeal, that affidavit didn’t just summarize evidence — it allegedly reshaped it.
Defense attorney Bob Motta walks through claims that witness descriptions were altered, contradictions were omitted, and statements were presented to the judge in ways that made Allen appear far more consistent with “Bridge Guy” than the actual record supports. Key eyewitness descriptions that conflicted with Allen’s age, height, hair, and vehicle were left out. Statements allegedly attributed to Allen about his clothing and movements may not match what he actually said in interviews.
If those allegations are accurate, the legal consequences are enormous. A misleading affidavit can invalidate a warrant — and if the warrant falls, so does everything that came after it: the gun, the cartridge comparison, the arrest, and potentially the confessions.
This conversation breaks down what officers are legally required to disclose in a probable cause affidavit, when omissions become constitutional violations, and why the denial of a Franks hearing is now a central issue on appeal.
