Summary
Alleigha Botner's cross-examination in the Caleb Flynn murder trial gave the defense a chance to turn the spotlight onto the prosecution's affair witness. Botner testified that she had searched the internet for information about unsolved murders and that, in her first FBI interview, she said she did not believe Caleb killed his wife, Ashley Flynn. In a later interview, after retaining counsel, she said she did believe Caleb killed Ashley. The defense also walked Botner through messages showing her jealousy toward Ashley and her repeated demands that Caleb leave his wife. Botner acknowledged sending many messages saying she hated Ashley and wanted her gone. She also testified that she sometimes doubted Caleb's claims that he hated Ashley because she saw Ashley behaving lovingly toward him and saw the couple going on dates and to restaurants. Botner said Caleb may have been lying to her about how he felt about his wife. Caleb Flynn has pleaded not guilty to charges including aggravated murder in Ashley Flynn's death. Prosecutors allege he killed Ashley and staged the scene as a home invasion; the defense says investigators rushed to blame him. Botner also testified that she has never been charged in connection with Ashley's murder and that prosecutors made her no promises.
