It’s actually very common for there to not be any visible injuries from SA. It’s more uncommon for there TO be injuries. I’ve been through it, a rape kit and police investigation and case sent to the DA. The doctor who performed my rape kit didn’t find any visible injuries but did find bruising to the tissue inside my rear end. The only reason they found that was because I had a major muscle contraction when the doctor probed that spot. It’s absolutely possible, and indeed probable, that the girls were SA’d prior to their deaths. Not necessarily regular penetration, either. SA can be a lot of things. 😢

[@Smashingblouse]

I’ve lost copious amounts of blood twice now. Both nearly resulting in death. The feeling is horrific. Not only can you feel yourself slipping away and tremendous pain, your body goes into survival mode initially and adrenaline kicks in so your heart rate increases and throws you into sheer panic like you’ve never felt before. Thoughts, memories and images race through your mind adding to that “my life flashed before my eyes” feeling. If you can talk you’re BEGGING anyone or anything to help you. It’s truly truly awful. Those poor fxxking girls man.

[@lillieeve6969]

How did you almost die from blood loss twice if you don’t mind?

[@Smashingblouse]

@@lillieeve6969 not at all. I had a non hormonal coil and it caused terrible period pains so I started taking Ibuprofen. I was quite young and busy at the time so would forget to eat and I had no idea how that medication eats into your stomach lining. I had a few months of tummy pain and then one day I thought I had the flu. Went to the bathroom and collapsed. When I pulled myself up to sit on the loo I expelled large amounts of jet black liquid. 20 seconds after that I threw up copious amounts of bright red fresh blood including huge clots. I can still see the pure white sink filling up with it. My bf at the time was there and called the ambulance. The guy that walked in first said “that looks like a fucking abattoir” so you can imagine the scene. The second time was scar tissue that had ulcerated next to the site of the original artery repair. It haemorrhaged three days after my 17th endoscopy so pretty much the same thing just in a different bathroom. Not fun.

[@Smashingblouse]

@@lillieeve6969 I did respond to you but I guess KZbin didn’t like it. I toned it down as well ffs. I’ll attempt to tone it down AGAIN. I had stomach ulcers that ate through to an artery and I had to expel the red stuff via both ends of my body.

@@kymo6343 Nobody testified stating that they saw him, so stop making crap up. Ballistics testing is junk science and has even been ruled that it can only be stated that it may have been the weapon. They weren't even able to get the marks to reach "sufficient agreement" by ejecting the round, even after several attempts. Now you may hear them say that the markings are the same if they are fired or simply ejected, but that is patently false since the testing methodology is not the same. It wasn't fired it was ejected and if "sufficient agreement" was reaching only after they fired it then you are basically self grading your own test. This was not a random opportunistic crime and I highly doubt it was committed by a stranger or even one person. The lack of defensive wounds would show that they were taken by surprise. Someone must have inflicted these fatal wounds when the girls were not expecting it which would indicate that it was people who they had some degree of trust with.

​@@ArthurB26if I had to give a verdict on just the information that's been given thus far, I couldn't with good conscience find him guilty. And that brings up the question of, if Allen isn't guilty, who brutally murdered those girls?

[@ArthurB26]

@@chrisblevins5143 Agreed. And your question is why I'm so critical of people who think he's guilty beyond a reasonable doubt and would be quick to rule that way if they were on this jury. I don't just want someone locked up because they're a somewhat decent suspect in the case and have a bunch of weak circumstantial evidence against that proves he COULD'VE committed the crime. I want the right person locked up and for the state prove nobody besides Allen could've possibly committed the crime. Which is the legal standard. I get a lot of hate for that in these comment sections but I still believe in the standard of guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, not just because I don't want any innocent people going to prison but because I want guilty people to be held accountable. And if Allen is innocent and he's found guilty anyway, that means the case is closed and a real monster would be free

[@tararae7304]

​@ArthurB26 I've followed this case since day one, he's absolutely guilty.But I'm not sure he did it alone.

Great reporting. Thank you for the info and hard work!

Breaks my heart one had to watch the other die and knew it was going to likely happen to them too. I wonder if they subconsciously convinced themselves “if I just go along with what he says he won’t kill me” even then. This whole thing is horrifying.

Too chaotic for that thinking. They knew.

[@michaelbartley9572]

Ah man. 5-10 minutes suffering and panicking. If that sob did it I hope he’s done in prison and the favor returned. This is horrible. I can’t believe how they investigated this. They need to bring in competent people and exhume their bodies and do a proper investigation

​@@ChiefsWin316there is no real protection for that type of person. Guards mysteriously Crack the cell doors sometimes and also there are times where inmates request protective custody just to get in the pod with those people to "take out the trash"

[@gamgamdabest8327]

My kids and I buried their dad 18 years ago after he was murdered. His killer confessed but, never saw a day of prison time. (Money can do a lot to keep ppl from paying for their crimes). My kids and I would all agree that nothing is bringing him back. We’d never want him exhumed. He’s been laid to rest. He deserves to stay at rest. Do we wish we could get justice? Absolutely but, not at the cost of further disrespect to his body and absolutely not at the price of the public being part of our life again on the daily. The public and their speculations and often straight up lies about our tragedy was more difficult to manage them losing him. Ppl suck. I mean REALLY suck. Look at all the people who say whatever they want to just on this post. Look at yourself, pretending that you understand what “should” be done. Would you want your child exhumed and molested further? I sure af wouldn’t want that.

[@katerinakaye2228]

If you listened to the evidence given you would learn that companies such as Apple don’t inform investigators these technologies and data exist in their products. The only way they find out is they try to extract information and work their way backwards through the apps. Plus technology evolves quickly from year to year so what was available now would not of been 7 years ago

[@regineuhe6657]

The guy on the girls video is bridge guy and I have zero doubt it is Allen. He looks exactly as he looked at the time on photographs and video. Same appearance, stature, movements. He wears exactly the clothes that he himself admitted to have worn on the bridge that very day. Of course the prosecuters won't ask the witnesses to identify the guy at the defense table as bridge guy. He looks nothing like that anymore today. If the timeline of the girls video is right, there is no other conclusion, no matter what the defense dreams up, because there is no time for another villain to appear. Girls film bridge guy, bridge guy forces them down into the creek... Bridge guy is Allen. It is really not complicated at all. Only thing confusing is that he wasn't recognized years earlier.

[@Monica-hv4rf]

Agreed. Alot of these comments, "nOtHiNg mAkEs SeNsE!" As if they've looked at all the evidence 🙄🤦‍♀️

[@skeletalwreck]

I think its Allen, but I am also confused why so many of the eye witness testimonies are so different to his description. Especially the one we keep hearing about him looking young with 'big poofy hair'. I think there is enough inconsistencies to deserve this lengthy and detailed trial.

[@NWI_Steel]

​@@skeletalwreckeyewitness testimony is historically unreliable

[@rochrabbit3446]

If Richard Allen is Guily wouldn’t his wife or family members recognise his clothes?? I would know my husband and his clothes anywhere.

[@MakeupMobster]

Same. I don’t get this case at all.

[@reha1066]

They do recognize him! They know he did it, but they just continue to defend the monster!!!

[@Kristin2885]

Denial is a powerful thing. The fact that his wife stands by him even now, shows how devoted she must be as a wife. Maybe her mind didn't let her go there and then him saying he talked to police and was cleared put her mind at ease. But I agree - his close family should be familiar with that outfit that he probably wears all the time and his walk/look.

[@RachelDeal2024]

He admitted to wearing those same clothes the day he went to the bridge so why would it matter if his wife said anything about them?? He already said that’s what he was wearing!…..

[@loutrecygne9678]

Yeah tbh the more that comes out the less I believe they have the right man. Maybe I’m completely wrong but there is something so off about this case.

[@Carol-c9u]

Again Richard Allen put himself on the bridge. He’s his own witness and you can’t get much better than that!

[@lindseysanders3656]

Yes, I agree. I think many people are getting tripped up by his behavior and “ deteriorating health” after he was arrested. I’m not. He seems rather manipulative to me and only cares about the fact that he was caught. He went to account for his whereabouts that day, I think, to appear like he was cooperative, honest and an innocent witness, because he thought someone may have seen him there that day. It’s a very small town.

[@Carol-c9u]

@@lindseysanders3656 and he only reported himself on the bridge two days after when the sketch came out. So totally agree with you.

[@Mary-e6o5x]

Did the three know each other? Not that it matters, but were those lil girls being provocative? Plz forgive me, I understand Richard should have walked the other way n left the lil girls alone !!!

[@Kristin2885]

Not only put himself there, but in the exact same outfit as the killer, prior to the release of Libby's video. He told the Deputy what he was wearing in that interview, not imagining he had been actually filmed on his walk-up to the girls. For him to be innocent, you have to imagine two men on that Bridge on that exact day and timeframe, of similar age and physical build, walking by themselves, wearing the exact same outfit and owning/carrying a firearm consistent with the bullet found at the crime scene. This, to me, is the most obvious piece of damning evidence. I can't imagine, outside of a Hollywood styled My Cousin Vinny movie, how two doppelgängers could be on that bridge on that same day in identical outfits, one being the killer and the other being an innocent man watching fish.

By the type of questions this jury asks, I fear they are a lost bunch. I hope Allen gets the punishment he deserves. He is guilty.

[@bunnyluver2176]

That’s an insane comment. There’s no bad questions. They need to get to the truth I think they’re asking decent questions. I wish they’d be asking more. Both the defense and prosecution have things they don’t want brought up. The lawyer talking is right, you never ask someone on the stand a question you don’t already know the answer to. So the jury should try to ask these questions then. You shouldn’t have your mind made up until all the evidence is presented. I hope you’re never a juror. If you get jury duty plz make up an excuse why you can’t serve.

[@NP-oz9sk]

How should he have overpowered two girls by himself? There’s no dna evidence just a coerced confession

[@m.jaquarius8365]
