Former American Idol contestant and pastor found guilty of murdering wife

Flynn's defence lawyer Patrick Mulligan, meanwhile, told the court there was no concrete evidence, saying: "Connecting a couple of meaningless dots doesn't solve the case."Mulligan said the issue was not whether Flynn was a good husband to his wife, a schoolteacher and volleyball coach, and that evidence of infidelity was not evidence of murder. "They can't find the gun, therefore they blame it on him?" Mulligan questioned, referring to the charge of tampering with evidence that Flynn also faced.Flynn's gun, which had been kept in the console of his truck, has been missing since investigators arrived at the scene and found the truck's centre console open. Earlier in the trial, Botner took the stand as a witness for two days, offering testimony about her nearly 18-month relationship with Flynn. In addition to reading some of their text exchanges, she also explained the lyrics line by line from an AI-generated song.Video of the jury's reaction to the song, including what looked like laughter, went viral. Prosecutors also called Joseph Wilhelm, a special agent from Ohio's Bureau of Criminal Investigations, as a witness.
