Trouble triplets

 There are triplet brothers. They look identical. The eldest is John, who always speaks truth. Second is Richard, who always speaks lies. Third is Larsen, who either speaks truth or lies. One day Stephen visited them. He was wondering about their identities. So he asked each person a question. He asked the one who was on the left: “Who is the guy sitting in the middle?” The answer came was “He is John”. He asked the one who was in the middle: “What is your name?” the answer was “I am Larsen”. He asked one who was on the right: “Who is the guy sitting in the middle?” The answer was “He is Richard”. Stephen got really confused. In fact he asked the same question to 3 different people, got 3 different answers. Would you help Stephan in finding the real sequence?
