Content warning. This episode contains discussion of murder, including the murder of children.

At the Delphi murders trial, Stacey Deiner was a prosecutor who one day would be compassionately walking the victim's family members through the worst moments of their lives.

Carroll County prosecutor Nicholas McLeod successfully tried and convicted Richard Allen

of the murders of Liberty German and Abigail Williams.

But as he will be the first to say, he did not do this alone.

He worked with a terrific team of two other attorneys,

each of whom once served as an elected prosecutor in another

Indiana County. We will be speaking with all of them this week. Stacey Deiner has devoted her

career to serving as a prosecutor. She was an elected prosecutor in Palazcai County and then

moved on to work as an assistant prosecutor in White County. After a brief stint in private practice,

she shut down her own law office to work on the Richard Allen case. Over the summer, she accepted

a position as Carroll County Chief Deputy Prosecutor. We spoke with Chief Deputy Prosecutor Deaner

in the Carroll County Prosecutor's Office. The room is divided by a small wall, and as we talked with

Stacey Deiner, Prosecutor McLeeland was on the other side of that wall, preparing for the next trial.

Now that the gag order is lifted, Chief Deputy Prosecutor Deiner and others are free to speak

about their experiences with the Delphi case. This would be the first of two episodes featuring

our interview with her. They would be

released on the same day, so check out the second part as well. These episodes are part of our

first person interview series. We will seek to interview as many of the individuals with

firsthand experience in the Delphi case as possible in the coming weeks and months. If you had a

direct role in the case, are open to talking to us,
