Former worship pastor Caleb Flynn was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole in Ohio on 5 October 2026 after being convicted of murdering his wife, Ashley Flynn. During sentencing, statements from his daughters, Ava and Alyssa, were read aloud in court as they urged him to confess and repent.
The girls' statements combined expressions of grief with appeals to their father's Christian faith. Flynn wept as their words were read, but he did not confess to killing his wife. Instead, he maintained that he would continue fighting for his innocence.
