Flynn, 39, was arrested Feb 19 and charged with multiple felonies in the death of his wife, Ashley Flynn, 37, at their Ohio home, according to reports cited by the New York Post. Investigators allege he fatally shot her while their two daughters slept in nearby rooms and then staged the scene to resemble a home invasion.
Authorities say Flynn called 911 around 2:30 am local time, claiming an intruder had broken into the house and shot his wife. “Oh my god, somebody broke into my home… My wife, she’s got two shots to her head,” he told the dispatcher, according to audio cited in media reports.
Responding officers initially observed signs suggesting a break-in and launched a search using drones and K-9 units. Dispatch logs reportedly referenced an open garage door and a possible intruder still inside.
