Caleb Flynn denies killing wife in interview played in court during murder trial

An Ohio man accused of murdering his wife in their bedroom and allegedly staging the crime scene to make it seem like an intruder broke into their home denied killing his spouse in an interview with police days after the deadly shooting, according to video shown during his trial on Monday.

What the coverage shows

The Associated Press and The Independent both frame the story as Caleb Flynn being on trial in his wife's killing, with The Independent adding the affair allegation in its extract. Fox News shifts the emphasis to the trial’s evidence and testimony, describing prosecutors highlighting inconsistencies and flagging what it calls key or “damning” evidence in two separate items. Ben Shapiro’s item is only a promotional headline about “shocking testimony,” so it gives no specific case detail in the extract.
