The songs Flynn wrote for his mistress weren’t the first time she had been brought up in court.
In the days before the songs were played, Botner testified in the trial against Flynn, explaining the timeframe and details of their affair.
Her testimony included reading some of the texts between them out loud, of which there are more than 107,000.
In multiple messages, Flynn expressed wanting his wife dead, even saying he’d kill her himself if he knew he wouldn’t go to h—.
His mistress testified he’d make similar comments in person as well.
Botner seemed to have similar desires as well, with texts from her reading, “I want to kill her, Caleb,” and “I need her gone, Caleb.”
Flynn responded, “That makes two of us.”
Additionally, Botner testified that they wouldn’t call Ashley by name, instead referring to her by derogatory names.
