I really hope the way police handled this case doesn’t muddy the water. Those little girls deserve justice.

[peggyhughes]

Makes you wonder what is being hidden?

[doygazgar]

No cameras, no laptops, no nothing says only 1 thing ..the judge and the prosecution DESPERATELY want to convict an innocent man because it was such a BAD INVESTIGATION 😮

[achristine]

When cameras or audio aren’t allowed, it fuses more mistrust within the public. Tax payer money is paying for this trial. Um HELLO! We should have the right to see what we pay for.

[jtcoffee]

The judge is wrong for not allowing cameras. This should be televised.

[Done]

All evidence should be brought forth so the right verdict can be made.

a month in a hotel room without devices sound s like a jail sentence

I'm a Canadian and I really don't agree with the fact that cameras are not allowed in courtrooms to film our trials. That's why I watch a lot of American trials because I'm very interested in the process and we can't see in our courtrooms unless we are present. I wish that they would allow cameras in this case

[ShrinkRai]

No cameras? Woof. I can already see the appeal - something sketchy is going on in Delphi...

[chasityyoung]

I cannot believe the supreme court allowed the Judge to stay on this case.

[mystery]

The truth deserves to be known but how can it be known if both sketches aren’t shown? If all evidence isn’t given? Including the piece of hair the poor girl was holding :( . This whole this is so disgusting. If he’s guilty than he should be found guilty using ALL FACTS. Not what facts prosecution feels is relevant or not . The defense should be able to present their defense whether it’s agreeable or not.

[Huckle_Billy]

Hold the dishonorable judge accountable!!!

[Nativegirlslots]

The judge is terrible. What is she trying to hide

[shellsoon]

I am very sad for abby and libby's families... this trial is going to be a 💩show

[MylingCyrus]

This is such a corrupt case. That judge should be ashamed. Wanting to essentially get this over with
If Richard Allen can get treated like this every single one of us can as well
How is he competent to stand trial?

[liveluvbefree]

I wonder if the whole recording of BG will be released or heard in the trial?

[CMare-ptei]

Shane Evans, the mayor ( he looks extremely nervous during the police report. He also changed his look and resigned and got a job on the prosecutor office. Also he finds the bodies and he looks like both sketch and walk exactly like the bridge guy… coincidence?

[ladycici]

For anyone in this country to have not seen either one of those sketches has got to have been living under a rock

[Ariana]

The victims deserve justice.
The alleged perpetrator deserves a just, complete and open defense.
Any and all defenses... they want to present at trial!
It is VERY difficult at this point to trust the judge, local LE, and prosecution. Very.

A confession means you provided information otherwise unknowable. I did it, is not a confession.
