Rozzi says Allen was having false memories during some of the confessions. He says the state lied about Libby’s phone. Rozzi says someone was using the phone between 5:45 p.m. and 10:32 p.m. on Feb. 13. He said someone plugged something into it during that time.
He says “there’s no explanation because the phone is right.”
Rozzi tells the jury there is no trace evidence that connects Allen to the crime scene. He said that Dr. Polly Westcott, a neuropsychologist, said that Dr. Wala’s notes read more like a story, despite Allen being psychotic and not coherent.
He says the state was desperate to make the sound in the Bridge Guy video the sound of a handgun racking.
Rozzi tells the jury there is a question as to if the girls’ bodies were at the scene during the evening of Feb. 13, 2017.
He says the Smith and Wesson cartridge found in the memory box is a very common brand.
Rozzi says Allen found God because he was in a cell alone with only a bible but that’s not why he confessed.
Rozzi tells the jury that there are five components for the jury to keep in mind:
- Nobody identified Allen as Bridge Guy.
- No digital data connects Allen to the crime.
- No clothing connects Allen.
- No DNA connects Allen.
- No trace material connects Allen.
Rozzi acknowledges the girls’ families. He says this has been a long journey.
Rozzi says “at the end of the day the state’s timeline has crumbled, the magic bullet is nothing more than a tragic bullet.”
Delphi Murders trial continues with closing arguments from both prosecution and defense. Jury will decide the fate of suspect Richard Allen.
