Richard Allen then says, I think maybe I've lost my mind. And his wife Kathy says, are you sure you want to talk over the phone? Richard says, I need you to know I did this. And this was in a whisper. And Kathy says, no, you haven't, you're unwell.
Everyone, of course, in the court was leaning forward to try to hear every single word of that. And those confessions are something that I believe, if I was on the jury, I would take those into consideration because of the way he sounded.

The defense has an argument there saying he shouldn't have been there. He wasn't in sound mind. He was in solitary for 30 days is the rule there. But for him, it was more than a year.

I believe, depending on who you ask, those gun enthusiasts who I've spoken to say it absolutely is like a fingerprint. That's the key piece of information. Other people I talk to say, hmm, Junk science. I don't know if you could really connect that unspent bullet with the markings to that particular gun. But that was a pivotal moment.

I believe Richard Allen, who says he's guilty. I believe that he was laying in wait. I believe he followed the girls on the bridge. I believe he led them down the hill.

All right, thank you very much, Tracy. I'm standing just outside the Luby's Cafeteria, the scene of today's mass killing. It has been an incredible day for Central Texas, and the incredible story is still unfolding as we talk now. Even at this hour, the Central Texas town of about 50,000 residents is still trying to grapple with the events, the cause, the aftermath of this mass killing.

Tonight, the grim process of removing the bodies from the restaurant began around 8 o'clock, about two hours ago. The bodies are being transported to Dallas for autopsies by the Dallas County Medical Examiner's Office. Now, for Bell County authorities, this is routine in murder cases.

The horror began during the lunch hour today at 1240. Suddenly, with no warning, a blue pickup truck came crashing through the big glass window of the restaurant's dining room. It was no accident.
