Gregory Lynn, a former airline pilot, is seeking bail to live with his son ahead of an application for a permanent stay in the case against him. The retrial, which follows the death of 73-year-old Carol Clay in 2020, has been ongoing since 2022. Lynn's lawyers argue that he should be released from custody for the first time in almost three years. The Victorian supreme court heard this argument on Thursday. A permanent stay application is currently being made by Lynn's lawyers, who are seeking to keep him out of custody permanently. The case involves a serious allegation and will likely have significant implications for Lynn's future.
