[@jewelofgod4262]

Over 10 years ago, I went to jail for 4 months for something I really didn't do. At the time, I had complete faith that all I had to do was tell the truth, and everything would be fine. Well, it wasn't. I have never been in trouble before or after. Now, over 10 years later, I still can hardly leave my house, answer my phone, or open my door. I'm in weekly counseling and on medication. Nothing bad happened to me in jail, but now I know that people in higher positions can do whatever they want and the truth doesn't matter.

His brother has passed now, but when I drive past Delphi I always think of those poor girls. I don't even think of the time spent there. What's worse I'm 30ish minutes from Rushville!! And a coworker of mine knows the person who is talked about in the files. My coworker has had to listen to me talk her ear off about this case. So when the name was dropped, she came running to me. I've deep dived this case...and I dont think Allen did the killings, but was involved. But my gut tells me there's others. And I think they are people who could make others keep quiet.

Lauren, Thank you for your crystal clear, concise update on this case. I will continue to follow any updates you have during this trial.

[@BohemianLifer]

There are power stations, trained citizen search and rescue units, local EMT's and police officers on duty for citizen safety, "tracking dogs" owned by private citizens, citizens with many flashlights and cold weather clothing, so, my question is; WHY STOP AN OFFICIAL INITIAL SEARCH WITHIN 24 HOURS?.

[@aliceinoregonland3942]

The fact that they didn't have a dog/s searching is 🤯!

[@Mike-es2yg]

Because of "mist", is what I've heard.

[@magdasmith1421]

Thank you for covering this in detail. Those precious girls need justice.❤

[@sbaumgartner9848]

I hadn’t followed this tragedy in detail. You have done a fantastic job of explaining what has happened to date. It’s amazing the trial is only expected to take only one month given all that f the twists and turns this case has taken so far. I look forward to your future coverage.

[@Joy-Rush]

Something really bothers me about this case and the way it’s been handled since the beginning. I definitely don’t like that not even audio is allowed for the trial. It’s like a Federal trial. Idk…just everything seems sus, but then again, I’ll wait for facts & evidence in the trial I won’t be able to watch! Thank you for your hard work!

[@womanofsteel06r0ck3r]

Agree!

[@Betty-qz5zd]

Yah agree! I want to trust law enforcement, but something does seem off. At first it made sense that LE just wanted to protect the integrity of the case by not releasing a lot of information; but after all this time, so many things do not add up, and then not to allow any recording in the trial? It seems pretty obvious that the bodies were moved, staged and that more than one person had to be involved. If there's a cult thing going on, and there are members actually in law enforcement, I wonder if we will ever really know what happened.

[@katiebishop7773]

I find it sus that Richard Allen was arrested almost immediately after the sheriff was condemned by someone running against him in the election for having made no progress on the case.

[@mtz6198]

I totally agree. I watch a lot of true crime and this case is just OFF. I think it is a small town and LE bumbled the investigation from day one. The sheriff has made this personal and the insistence by LE of keeping everything sealed is a huge red flag

[@dianeiaquinto2474]

Ihooe that Joe who was on KZbin he had been following this case had a lot to say hope he comes back on he thinks RA is inocent I will be watching every one wants the right person who did this for Abby and Libby also for the family's ❤❤❤❤

Lauren and John here at hidden true crime are the real deal. They center victims first and foremost. They continue to provide in-depth and researched analyses of criminals, including their backgrounds and traumas, that help the general public make sense of such heinous crimes. Lauren and John’s work has led me to multiple invaluable resources that have changed my parenting and personal wellness approaches for the better. I’m ready for Dr John’s input on this case. Together, Lauren and John illuminate the MO and origins of dangerous actors, to the benefit of us regular folks who desire to see justice and goodness in our world.

Love you Lauren!! Thanks for all you do! 🫶🏼💕

[@LoneRider1969]

What a awesome coverage of this heinous crime..Your hard work doesnt go unnoticed, Thank you. I truly hope Abby & Libby's family will finally find closure one day..🙏

[@wudnpud66]

I am so pleased you are going to be covering this case. I’m a sub from the UK and feel that this is one of the most important cases at this time, not just in America but globally. The transparency has been non existent and the corruption and games have been truly mind blowing. I really hope you both dig in your heels and get stuck into it, like only you two can. Are all jurors disabled and easily confused by the way? Asking for a friend. Sending love from over the pond. 😘

[@maryhendrickson2408]

Best breakdown of the case available... thank you for utilizing your investigative skills to bring us this unbiased look at the case. Looking forward to hearing " Dr John's insights on the behaviors of the different individuals involved.

Hi Lauren Mathias! Thank you for your coverage on this tragedy those poor kids and their grieving parents and their loved ones❤

[@evee0618]

By seeing first hand how our justice system in this country, I have reasonable doubt that Mr. Allen is guilty. Anything can be used and twisted against you in the court of law. There are too many wrongful convictions in this country.

[@norlavine]

This case is perhaps even more chilling than one could imagine. Thank you for such meticulous and professional journalism. I now have a much clearer view of how this case unfolded.

Is there anyone who does it better than Lauren?! Seriously, such a talent for all to gain from! So succinct and covers it all.

Yep. Every other "True Crime " afficionado without major conflicts of interests, and who can actually write a coherent sentence without sounding like 50 Shades of Grey

I'm new to your channel I've never seen this before till tonight. Glad I found your channel I just subscribed. I am a true Delphi case follower since 2017 when the girls were murdered. I like the way you're presenting everything so clear and precise. No cursing going on in this video like a lot of these KZbin channels have. We need Justice for Libby and Abby and some type of closure for their families. Justice will prevail soon. 🙏🙏💚🦋💜 Keep up the good work and I will be sharing this in the group I'm in on Facebook Looking forward to your next video.

[@NateDawg920]

What they used to find Richard Allen "guilty" is gross. It's also disturbing how in today's world they can keep someone who hasn't had a trial, not just in prison, but in solitary confinement for months. Which is all illegal. Not to mention how poor of a job the judge did in this case.

You do a good job, Lauren. Subscribed.

[@heatheroneill898]

I’m so glad you’re covering this. As others have stated, this case is incredibly messy, leaving so many of us confused. I would love to know your thoughts on legal representation on both sides and the myriad of concerns with Judge Gull. Thank you so much for all you do! I will be watching.
