Are The Delphi Murders Part of a Crooked Cover-Up Or Just Crappy Police Work?

It's a question that has perplexed many who've delved into the intricate details of a particular criminal investigation: was the fiasco surrounding the discovery of two young girls the result of a mere power struggle between local law enforcement and the FBI, or was there something more sinister at play?
 
 The latest episode of the podcast "Hidden Killers," hosted by Tony Brueski and featuring insights from former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, delves deep into the troubling aspects of this case. Coffindaffer, a seasoned investigator, shared her expert opinion on what might've transpired after the shocking discovery of the girls' bodies, found not by law enforcement, but by volunteers.
 
 "They weren't even discovered by law enforcement," Coffindaffer lamented, voicing concerns about the potential contamination of the crime scene. "Whenever you enter a crime scene, you leave something behind and you take something with you."
 
 Such amateur handling of a crime scene brings forth multiple questions. Were critical pieces of evidence compromised? Was there a deliberate attempt to obscure the truth? The very seed of this case, Coffindaffer believes, lies in the "mistakes that were made with that crime scene." It's these foundational blunders that might've allowed the truth to slip through the cracks.
 
 In a case punctuated by claims of symbols related to Odinism and alleged misconduct by prison guards and officers, the role of Tony Liggett has raised eyebrows. Was this a deliberate cover-up to protect someone in a position of power?
 
 Coffindaffer noted, "I don't think that can just be dismissed summarily based on what we're seeing here." But she also asserted that the initial findings and handling of evidence appeared more to be a result of ineptitude rather than malicious intent.
 
 The murkiness of the case deepens with mention of potential confessions. "If the confessions that Ron Logan made to his mom and to his wife, these five confessions, if he offers information that is not known prior... that could make the case for law enforcement," Coffindaffer stated, hinting at the importance of these claims and the potential revelations that might emerge from them.
 
 Yet, the scenario still seems inexplicable. How did a killer find himself at the right place and time to commit such a heinous act? Were they waiting, hoping for an opportunity? Or was it mere coincidence that they had the necessary tools to commit the crime?
 
 A name that has come up repeatedly in relation to the crime is Richard Allen. He's described as a pharmacy tech leading an ordinary life. "Remember, Richard Allen is not linked to any other crimes of this sort... It just doesn't make a lot of sense," said Coffindaffer. The entire case hinges on the legitimacy of the confessions and whether there was any misconduct during the evidence collection.
 
 As the conversation on "Hidden Killers" wrapped up, Coffindaffer speculated on the possibility of a Franks hearing, which would evaluate the validity of a search warrant and its evidence. If this hearing takes place, it might very well be the key that unlocks the mystery shrouding this baffling case.
 
 So, we're left to wonder: Amid the blame games and potential cover-ups, will the truth about what happened to these two young girls ever truly come to light? Or will it remain buried, obscured by the very forces meant to unveil it?
