At the same time, prosecutors say, he was sending Ashley warm, loving messages.Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony to examine what happens in the mind of a woman who receives messages like that from a married lover.

Caleb Flynn Found Outside With Dogs While Ashley Lay Dead
When the first officer arrived at the Flynn home minutes after the 911 call, Caleb Flynn was not inside performing CPR. He was not on the phone begging someone for help. He was standing outside the house with his two dogs, reportedly waiting for police in the yard. That image -- a husband standing with his pets while his wife lay dead in the bedroom -- is one of the most damning behavioral details to emerge from the Caleb Flynn murder trial.Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke spend this segment dissecting every piece of evidence from the courtroom...

Caleb Flynn's Affair and the Text That Changed Everything
When investigators pulled the digital records from Caleb Flynn's devices, they did not find a handful of inappropriate messages. They found over 100,000 text exchanges with another woman -- a mountain of communication conducted entirely in secret while Caleb was married to Ashley, raising their family, and leading worship services at their church. Prosecutors say the sheer volume of those messages is evidence of more than infidelity. It is allegedly evidence of a man who had perfected the art of deception.But the message that allegedly matters most is just one line. Caleb reportedly texted his mistress: 'If...

Caleb Flynn Called 911 and Allegedly Told a Story
Every murder investigation has a starting point. For the case against Caleb Flynn, that starting point is a 911 call made at 2:30 in the morning on the night his wife Ashley was found shot dead in their bed. Caleb picked up the phone and told dispatch he had been asleep on the couch. He said he had a cough that sent him to the living room. He said he heard a gunshot and froze. And then, prosecutors allege, he did what no genuinely panicked spouse typically does -- he reportedly started building a suspect profile for the dispatcher before anyone...

What Patrick Clancy Pleaded For While His Baby Was Dying
At Boston Children's Hospital, Patrick Clancy stood over his 8-month-old son and bargained. He told 60 Minutes he believed Callan had a chance. He described the plea he made — three words he repeated while the rest of his world was already gone. Callan didn't make it. Patrick's full interview with CBS covered everything: Lindsay talking her way out of McLean Hospital five days before the killings, the hidden panic attack during the trial, the forgiveness he gave without being asked, and the first date where he dropped the heaviest truth a stranger has ever heard at a coffee shop. Robin Dr...

What Patrick Clancy Told a Stranger About Cora, Dawson, and Callan
On his first date with Dr. Rachel Danis, Patrick Clancy pulled out his phone at a coffee shop and showed her pictures. She asked who the children were. Patrick gave her the truth immediately. He told 60 Minutes he moved to New York to become anonymous — to cry on the street without being recognized. He admitted he was waiting to die. He didn't think he'd make it to 35. Then he met Rachel running in Central Park. They're married now and expecting a baby. Patrick told CBS he talks to Cora, Dawson, and Callan all the time. Robin Dreeke joins Tony Br...

Patrick Clancy's Hidden Breakdown at Plymouth Superior Court
Patrick Clancy's 60 Minutes interview revealed something the trial cameras never captured. Before he took the stand at Plymouth Superior Court, Patrick had a massive panic attack in a back room. He told CBS he nearly couldn't finish testifying. The internet saw a man who appeared calm and used his composure to fuel conspiracy theories. Patrick also told 60 Minutes he forgave Lindsay without her ever asking — he read the "Killer Mom" and "Monster" headlines and decided forgiveness was the only way to survive. Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to break down what Patrick's hidden courtroom breakdown tells us about how gr...

Patrick Clancy Told 60 Minutes WHAT About Lindsay's Doctors?!
Patrick Clancy broke his silence on 60 Minutes and revealed what happened when Lindsay Clancy was inside McLean Hospital — one of the top psychiatric facilities in the country. She checked in on New Year's Day 2023. Five days later, she convinced her doctors she was ready to leave. Patrick said no one told him not to leave the children with her. He described mental illness as "tragically deceptive" and admitted there were things he missed. Nineteen days after her discharge, Cora, Dawson, and Callan were dead. Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to unpack what Patrick's interview reveals about how Lindsay's condition hi...

The Worship Leader and the Pastor — What Two Men of Faith Hid From Their Families
A worship leader accused of murdering his wife while their daughters slept down the hall. A megachurch pastor facing federal charges for allegedly terrorizing his estranged wife for two years before she died. Two men who stood on stages and told audiences they were devoted husbands. Two investigations that allege they were something else entirely. Caleb Flynn is on trial in Miami County, Ohio, for the aggravated murder of Ashley Flynn, 37. Prosecutors allege he shot her twice in the head on February 16, 2026, staged their Tipp City home to look like a burglary, and called 911 with a story that fell...

Who Inside JP Miller's Church Is Talking to Federal Investigators?!
Solid Rock Church is closed. John-Paul Miller is on $100,000 bond with an ankle monitor. His federal trial for cyberstalking and making false statements has been pushed to October 2026. And the people who were closest to him during the years prosecutors allege he terrorized his estranged wife Mica are watching a Netflix documentary play their world back to a national audience. Mica Miller was found dead at Lumber River State Park on April 27, 2024. Her death was ruled a suicide. A federal grand jury indicted Miller in December 2025, alleging he tracked her vehicle, called her more than 50 times in a day...

Caleb Flynn Says a Burglar Stole His Gun the SAME Night Ashley Was Killed
The coincidence at the center of Caleb Flynn's defense is the kind of story that either saves him or buries him. He claims someone broke into his Ford pickup truck and stole his 9mm handgun. Then that person entered his Tipp City home and used the weapon to shoot his wife Ashley twice in the head. All on the same night, while Caleb and their daughters were in the next room. The prosecution says Caleb staged the entire thing. He was arrested within 82 hours and indicted on 11 counts including aggravated murder. His bond was set at $3.5 million. Ashley was 37...

How Caleb Flynn's Staged Crime Scene Collapsed in 82 Hours
It took investigators 82 hours to arrest Caleb Flynn for the murder of his wife Ashley. That's how fast the home invasion story fell apart. On February 16, 2026, Caleb called 911 claiming an intruder broke into their Tipp City, Ohio, home and shot Ashley while he was in the next room with their daughters. He was hysterical. He was specific. And he was, according to prosecutors, lying about all of it. Ashley was 37 years old. She was a middle school volleyball coach and a mother of two. She was shot twice in the head in her own home. Investigators from Tipp City...

Mica’s Law Was Still Stalled When JP Did WHAT?!
Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to connect two parts of the Mica Miller story that are usually discussed separately: what Mica left in writing and what JP Miller’s life looked like after she was gone. Scott starts with the behavioral question — how coercive control can be experienced as an everyday system of pressure even when each individual act looks too small or too scattered to trigger the law. Mica’s family says her journals and diaries described forced medication, unwanted injections and severe sleep deprivation. Her police contacts also documented allegations involving tracking and harassment. JP now...

Sandra Birchmore’s Suicide Ruling Became WHAT?!
Sandra Birchmore’s case reaches federal court with the original death ruling already rewritten. The Massachusetts medical examiner once classified her death as suicide. On April 30, 2026, the office changed the manner to undetermined and shortened the listed cause from asphyxia by hanging to asphyxia. That matters because Matthew Farwell’s defense is preparing to argue suicide. Judge Denise Casper has ruled that jurors may hear evidence about Sandra’s mental-health history and prior suicidal thoughts. The defense says those records support its theory. Prosecutors say the jury should also hear how Sandra’s relationship with Farwell began and why t...

Mark Kaufman Calls His JP Miller Friendship WHAT?!
Mark Kaufman's September 2026 statement adds a sharp contradiction to the Mica Miller case. The public record shows a best man, a shared business connection, and a pastor calling Kaufman his best friend from the pulpit. Kaufman says Death of the Pastor's Wife does not reflect the friend group he actually lived in. The archival footage is specific. Kaufman stood beside JP Miller at his 2017 wedding to Mica and joked about being forced into the friendship and best-man role. On April 28, 2024, the morning after Mica died, JP introduced Kaufman at Solid Rock Church as his best friend and h...

Lindsay Clancy’s Defense Wants September 29 to Do WHAT?!
Lindsay Clancy returns to court on September 29 with the defense trying to turn a mistrial into an ending. Kevin Reddington is not relying on a single theory. He is pursuing a Rule 25 required-finding argument while also preparing a separate double-jeopardy challenge to the mistrial itself. Rule 25 focuses on whether the Commonwealth's evidence was legally sufficient to support a conviction. The double-jeopardy argument focuses on a different question: whether Judge William Sullivan truly had to declare a mistrial after the jury deadlocked 11-1. That second fight reaches back into the jury room. Foreperson Roni Carlson has sa...

Donna Adelson's Plan for Wendi's Sons Was WHAT?!
The Donna Adelson trial forced the Adelson family’s private communications into open court, and Wendi Adelson’s testimony showed how far her mother wanted to push after losing the relocation fight with Dan Markel. Wendi testified that Donna suggested baptizing the boys as Christians, putting them in Hitler Youth uniforms, and trying a $1 million offer to persuade Markel to let them move to South Florida. That evidence sits beside testimony from Donna’s own children about how she operated inside the family. Wendi said Donna “micromanaged my life.” Robert Adelson testified that his mother was controlling, had fixed i...

What Did JP Miller Mean by "Protecting" Mica?!
Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to break down one of the most disturbing alleged themes in the JP Miller case: the use of protective language to justify controlling behavior. Prosecutors say Miller told federal agents that having Mica Miller monitored was about keeping her safe. Shavaun Scott explains why that framing matters, how alleged abusers can sell control as care and why the people around them often adopt the same vocabulary without questioning what it actually covers. Then the conversation turns to Solid Rock Church itself. Public reporting in late 2023 described a ministry with about 700 members, a...
