Before the 911 call. Before the bodycam footage. Before the indictment. There was Ashley Flynn.

A Tipp City native. Tippecanoe High School class of 2006. Lee University class of 2010. She came home and stayed. Elementary school teacher. Substitute teacher. Seventh-grade volleyball coach. Bible instructor at LifeWise Academy. Mother of two daughters who were inside the house the night she was killed. She was thirty-seven. Eight days from her birthday.

Ashley taught other people's children how to be better. She showed up for seventh graders on a volleyball court and for families inside a church. She was known for her smile, her warmth, and the kind of presence that made people feel seen. When she was gone, Tipp City did not hesitate. A GoFundMe passed $175,000. More than 1,400 people donated. Benefit dinners, T-shirt fundraisers, businesses redirecting profits — everything funneled toward making sure her two elementary-age daughters are taken care of. The church cancelled the public memorial and held a private service. Ashley's family retained lawyers, went to court, and built legal protections for those girls without waiting for a verdict. They moved first. They moved fast. And they moved for the people Ashley loved most.

Her husband Caleb Flynn faces an eleven-count indictment — aggravated murder, three counts of murder, two counts of felonious assault, three counts of tampering with evidence, and two counts of intimidating a witness. He called 911 on February 16 and reported a home invasion. He was arrested three days later. His bond sits at $3.5 million. He is barred from contact with his daughters. According to court filings submitted by Ashley's family, he was the primary beneficiary on her life insurance policy. He had left ministry and was working as VP of Sales for her family's commercial flooring company.

Thirteen years ago, he looked into an American Idol camera and called Ashley "very, very pretty." That clip is still on YouTube. So is the distance between who he said he was and what prosecutors say he did.

Flynn has pled not guilty. He is presumed innocent until proven guilty. Trial is approaching. Ashley's community is making sure her daughters are not left behind — because that is what Ashley would have done for someone else's children.

This is the comprehensive trial preview. Every procedural development, every strategic move, every piece of publicly known evidence -- assembled in one place before the jury is seated on May 4.

We walk through the full 11-count indictment and what each charge tells you about the prosecution's theory. The physical evidence from the affidavit. The scope of subpoenas targeting the FBI Lab at Quantico, Apple, Verizon, WhatsApp, Meta, Google, Microsoft, financial institutions, and insurance companies -- and the two that still haven't complied. The expert report the prosecution received on April 11 that triggered a continuance fight between the state and the defense.

We cover every significant pretrial motion: the non-dissemination order filed and withdrawn, the judicial conflict of interest, the jury view motion. And we cover the moment that sealed the trajectory of this case -- the prosecution offering a plea of guilty as charged on all counts, the defense refusing, and Judge Pratt's response: "OK then, we're going to trial."

Part 4 of four. The final word before the courtroom opens.

This is the episode that focuses entirely on Ashley. Not the crime scene. Not the charges. Not the courtroom maneuvering. Ashley Flynn, the person.

A Tippecanoe High School graduate, class of 2006. Lee University, class of 2010. She came home to Tipp City and wove herself into the fabric of the community -- teaching, coaching seventh-grade volleyball, serving at church, raising two daughters on a quiet cul-de-sac. She worked at LifeWise Academy teaching bible lessons to other people's kids. She was eight days from her 38th birthday when she was killed.

We cover the community's response in full: the GoFundMe that crossed $175,000, the cancelled public memorial at Christian Life Center, the family's decision to retain attorneys and fight in court to protect the children's financial future. And we talk about the daughters -- carefully, respectfully -- because they are at the center of every motion, every fundraiser, and every decision being made in the wake of their mother's death.

Part 3 of four. The trial will determine what happened inside the house on Cunningham Court. But the people who loved Ashley already know what was lost.
