About

Greg Lynn, a 59-year-old former pilot, is currently newsworthy due to the overturning of his conviction for the murder of Carol Clay in the Victorian high country in 2020. He was initially found guilty of Clay's murder in June of last year but acquitted of murdering Russell Hill, Clay's fellow camper. Lynn had been sentenced to a minimum of 24 years in prison. However, the state's highest court recently overturned the conviction. Separately, details have emerged regarding Lynn's past dealings with Victoria Police, including an instance where he escaped police custody and was subject to intervention orders obtained by his former partner before her death in 1999. These revelations add another layer of complexity to the case and raise questions about Lynn's history prior to the high country murders.
