American Idol Alum Guilty of Murder - Life Without Paroleanteayer25 min

Caleb Flynn thought he could murder his wife, stage a break-in and convince police an intruder was responsible.

But his own words and devices helped expose the lie.

In this follow up episode looking at the American Idol Alum and former pastor accused of murder, we look at the conviction and sentencing of Caleb Flynn.

A jury found him guilty of murdering his wife Ashley in the middle of the night, whilst she was feet away from their children.

Together, Kayla Brantley and Rachel Bowman break down the evidence used against him in court, including AI generated love songs made for his mistress, and a digital footprint the prosecution used to discredit his story.
