Former Jetstar pilot plans to contest murder conviction for killing Carol Clay.
Airline pilot Greg Lynn is determined to fight against his 32-year prison sentence for the tragic murder of Carol Clay, a missing camper. The Victorian Supreme Court has confirmed that Lynn has filed appeals against both his conviction and sentence, and has also requested an extension of time to do so.

This comes after Lynn was found guilty by a jury of shooting Carol Clay in the head and disposing of her body, along with the body of her lover Russell Hill, in a remote bush track. The 58-year-old pilot was sentenced to 32 years behind bars for his heinous actions in March 2020.

During the trial, Lynn admitted to burning the bodies but maintained that their deaths were accidental. However, the jury returned split verdicts, finding him guilty of Clay's murder but not Hill's.

Following the sentencing by Justice Michael Croucher on October 18, Lynn's barrister, Dermot Dann KC, announced that his client would be appealing the murder conviction. Dann has stood by this decision and the appeal will be heard in the Victorian Court of Appeal at a later date.

The case has sparked widespread interest and discussion, with many people following the details of the trial closely. In response to this, a podcast called "The Missing Campers Trial" has been launched, providing in-depth analysis and coverage of the case. Listeners can tune in to hear the latest updates and insights from journalists outside the court.

As the legal battle continues, many are left wondering about the true motives behind Lynn's actions and the heartbreaking loss of two lives. The community is also grappling with the larger issue of violence and abuse, as seen in the rise of incidents in hospitals. It is clear that this case has sparked important conversations that need to be addressed.
