Alleigha Botner told jurors in the Caleb Flynn murder trial what Flynn promised her in the last hours before his wife was killed. She testified that on February 14, 2026, after a Saturday church service, Flynn told her he'd already informed Ashley he was divorcing her. Botner said she answered that she didn't believe him, because he'd said it too many times. She also warned him, she testified, that she might never want to be with him again, and he cried. By Sunday night she was reading his promises on her phone, and she read them to the jury. Botner admitted her own worry that weekend was losing her job if the affair came out. Ashley Flynn was shot in the family's Tipp City home early on February 16. Flynn is charged with aggravated murder and has pleaded not guilty. Eric Faddis, a defense attorney and former prosecutor, helps me separate what that weekend proves from what it only suggests.

What Caleb Flynn called his wife behind her back is now evidence in his Ohio murder trial. Alleigha Botner, who testified she had an affair with Flynn, told jurors that when they first met he said Ashley wasn't worthy of her own first name. The prosecutor had her say every replacement name out loud from the witness stand. Then he asked what Botner herself called Ashley, and she admitted she used most of the same ones. Flynn, a former American Idol contestant, is on trial for aggravated murder in Ashley Flynn's shooting death at their Tipp City home, and he has pleaded not guilty. Botner also testified Flynn told her he'd kill Ashley if he could avoid jail. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis explains why the state wants a jury to hear that cruelty, and why the defense might want jurors to hear who else said it.

The juror who single-handedly blocked Lindsay Clancy's acquittal allegedly had a restraining order against him for violence against a child while he sat in judgment of a mother who killed hers. And now a judge wants to see his questionnaire.
On September 21, 2026, Judge William Sullivan granted a motion from Clancy's defense attorney Kevin Reddington to produce the holdout's sealed juror questionnaire, preserve related records, and conduct a limited inquiry. The motion alleges the juror may have concealed his criminal history and an active court order during jury selection.
Michael Desronvil was arrested in Brockton in 2021 after he allegedly grabbed his then-wife by the throat and threw her into a dresser. The charge was dismissed. Separately, his teenage nephew obtained a restraining order after alleging Desronvil assaulted him. A judge found the teenager met all elements based on legitimate fear of physical violence. That order was active while Desronvil served on the Clancy jury at Plymouth Superior Court.
Fellow jurors have also alleged Desronvil used his cellphone during deliberations. Reddington wants the phone surrendered to a neutral examiner. A juror accessing outside material during deliberations is the one category that pierces the legal protection shielding jury secrecy.
Desronvil disputes other jurors' accounts through counsel, saying he had no doubts about Clancy's guilt. The defense is building a double-jeopardy argument with newly added attorney Martin Weinberg: if the juror was unqualified, the jury was broken, and the mistrial doesn't count. The next hearing is September 29. DA Tim Cruz has not announced whether he will retry Clancy.

One woman allegedly read 100,000 messages from a man describing plans to kill his wife and stayed in the relationship. One family watched their son confess to killing four college students and is now publicly backing his claim that the confession was forced.
Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony for a three-part conversation covering two of the biggest cases in the country.
Caleb Flynn, the former American Idol contestant and worship pastor, is on trial in Miami County, Ohio, for the aggravated murder of his wife Ashley. Prosecutors say the messages between Flynn and his mistress show a man planning murder while texting his wife love messages with the other hand.
Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty to the Idaho student murders and was sentenced to four consecutive life sentences. He filed a handwritten petition claiming he was coerced into confessing. His family just released a statement to ABC News demanding a proper trial.

Special Agent Joseph Wilhelm testified about what investigators recovered from Caleb Flynn's iPhone, including digital artifacts showing multiple apps deleted on February 15, 2026. Among them were Instagram, GroupMe and ChatGPT - one day before the death of Caleb's wife, Ashley Flynn.
Wilhelm told jurors that settings on the iPhone prevented his first extraction attempt from succeeding. He switched forensic tools and was able to perform a full extraction. That data, he testified, also contained artifacts associated with incognito browsing.
Then came the wearable data. Wilhelm walked through information from an Apple Watch identified as @CalebApplesWatch, including recorded steps, AirPods connections and a final heart-rate recording at 2:10:11 a.m. Investigators also recovered the audio file of a song Caleb wrote for Alleigha Botner. Jurors heard the song in court.
Caleb has pleaded not guilty to charges in Ashley's murder. Prosecutors allege he killed her and staged the scene as a home invasion, while the defense maintains an intruder was responsible. Wilhelm's testimony does not make the interpretation for the jury. It gives them timestamps, device activity and recovered artifacts to place beside the competing accounts of that night.
