We're working on a thingie. 🧵🪡🚨🔔‼️ The person charged with keeping Richard Allen sane was personally following the case against him. Richard Allen's prison psychologist, Dr. Monica Wala, testified under oath that she had followed the Delphi investigation for years before Allen was ever arrested and delivered to Westville Correctional Facility. Wala listened to true-crime podcasts and YouTube channels devoted to the case. She belonged to Delphi-focused social media groups. She used the Department of Corrections' internal information system to pull case materials for her own personal interest, conduct she later acknowledged likely violated policy. And she testified that, before she ever laid eyes on Richard Allen, she had already formed a profile of the kind of person who would have committed these killings. She disclosed none of this to her employer or to the Department of Corrections at the time, because, in her words, she did not feel it was relevant. This is the person the system placed at Allen's cell door as his treating clinician, his suicide-watch lifeline, and very often the only human being he was permitted to speak with for months at a time. 1/
