Caleb Flynn stood on worship stages and sang about grace. Prosecutors say he walked into his wife's bedroom with a 9mm handgun and took hers.

Ashley Flynn — a thirty-seven-year-old mother, middle school volleyball coach, and educator in Tipp City, Ohio — was found dead in the early morning hours of February 16, 2026, inside the home she shared with her husband and their two young daughters. She had been shot in the head. The girls were asleep down the hall.

At 2:31 a.m., Caleb Flynn called 911 and reported a burglary. He told the dispatcher the garage door was wide open. Someone broke in, he said. Someone shot his wife. But according to investigators, the scene told a different story — one that didn't hold together. Authorities allege the break-in was staged, and that it was Caleb who pulled the trigger.

Three days later, he was arrested. A Miami County grand jury has since indicted him on eleven charges: aggravated murder, three counts of murder, two counts of felonious assault, three counts of tampering with evidence, and two misdemeanor counts of intimidation of a witness. He has pleaded not guilty to all counts. His bond sits at three and a half million dollars. There will be no plea deal — the prosecution's only offer is for Flynn to plead guilty as charged. His jury trial is set to begin May 4 before Judge Jeannine Pratt.

The defense, led by attorney L. Patrick Mulligan, has maintained that the investigation was rushed and that the state's case rests on assumptions, not evidence. The defense has filed a motion requesting the jury be taken to the Flynn home to assess the scene for themselves. Meanwhile, the state has issued subpoenas to social media companies, banks, insurance providers, and software corporations — and is still waiting on responses from some of them.

Robin Dreeke and I take your listener questions and dig into what the evidence — and the behavior — reveal about the man behind the worship stage persona.
