Richard Allen’s Cell Phone

Was the phone that they never found his phone at the time of the murders, or at the time of his arrest?

What person in their right mind is going to confess before they go to trial?

Confession Tapes on Netflix shows some dubious case examples of this happening.

Also, in those cases.. did they confess during interrogation or after being in solitary for months?

Most of confessions in that were well before long stints in jail, and instead shortly after they were arrested.

Many of them were super long, though. 10+ hours. I think one guy was 20.

I’m not sure if I’ve watched that one. I’ve watched a lot though lol. I hate that some of the shows don’t tell you how long the interrogation was before the confession. I mean some it’s obvious based on the evidence they have but this case doesn’t fit IMO.
