A Psychotherapist on the Ego Hiding Behind Caleb Flynn's Altar

Caleb Flynn sang on American Idol, led worship for over a decade, ran his wife's family business, and presented the picture of a devoted husband and father. Prosecutors in Miami County, Ohio, allege the man behind that image shot his wife Ashley in the head while she slept. They say he staged it as a burglary while maintaining an affair with more than 100,000 messages to his mistress.

His defense attorney told the jury that Caleb Flynn is a terrible husband who said terrible things to keep a girlfriend happy, but that doesn't make him a killer.

Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony to examine the ego behind the altar. True crime is full of charismatic spiritual leaders who commit violence under the cover of community trust. Scott breaks down what the pulpit gives a person with a certain kind of ego, how a church environment creates loyal cover, and what happens when a narcissist's congregation becomes his courtroom audience.

Caleb Flynn has pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder, murder, felonious assault, and tampering with evidence.
