Caleb Flynn told police an intruder killed his wife, Ashley, but prosecutors opened his murder trial with messages they say he sent to his mistress before her death. His defense acknowledges the affair while arguing that anger, betrayal and a possible motive do not prove murder. Criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Joshua Ritter examines the competing opening statements, the first day of testimony and the questions the evidence must answer.
Also in this Weekly Roundup: Tomasz Kosowski challenges DNA testimony while representing himself in his murder trial, Lindsay Clancy’s holdout juror offers a competing account of deliberations, and Josh discusses the ruling on Gerhardt Konig’s request for a new trial. We close with our Hero of the Week.
