Richard Allen transferred to Oklahoma, online records show

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Richard Allen, the man convicted in the 2017 Delphi murders case, has been transferred from the Pendleton Correctional Facility to a facility in Oklahoma.

Allen is being held in the Lexington Assessment and Reception Center in Cleveland County, Oklahoma, and was received there Thursday, according to the state’s online inmate tracker.

Online records for the Indiana Department of Correction show Allen is in an “out-of-state facility,” I-Team 8’s Kyla Russell reported Saturday.

News 8 is working to learn more about why Allen was transferred.

Allen, 52, was convicted last year in the February 2017 murders of Abigail Williams and Liberty German and was sentenced 130 years in prison.

Allen’s legal team is working to appeal his conviction.

Lexington Assessment and Reception Center is a maximum-security state prison for men in Lexington, Oklahoma, roughly 40 miles south of Oklahoma City. The complex also houses a medium-security correctional center and a minimum security unit.
