Ashley Flynn’s parents took the stand on Tuesday.
Her mother, Jill Smith, revealed the chilling words Caleb Flynn told the couple’s young daughters after he allegedly killed their mother.
‘Someone broke into the house and hurt mommy, and she’s in heaven,’ Flynn said, according to Smith.
She said Ashley had a wholesome Galentine’s Day celebration with her daughters, ages 10 and 12, just hours before she was killed.
‘She wanted to have a special evening with the girls. She did facials, washed their hair, did their nails. She had special food for them, and they had a special night just for the three of them,’ she said.
Smith testified that the next day, February 16, Flynn called her and said, ‘She’s gone. Ashley is gone. Someone broke in, and they shot her.’
Ashley’s father testified that he did not immediately believe his son-in-law’s story after his daughter was killed.
Todd Smith said he was on a trip to Canada with his friends when his daughter died.
‘We loaded up and drove back. Longest ride of my life. I called Jill probably 100 times just to see what was going on. All I could think was that nothing in that story made sense to me,’ he said.

He said he did a Google search for ‘Can a Christian man snap and kill his wife?’
