Hot Mics with Billy Bush

Is Caleb Flynn’s defense actually creating reasonable doubt — or running out of places to turn?
Trial analyst Josh Ritter joins Billy Bush to break down the latest testimony in the Caleb Flynn murder trial as investigators face cross-examination and the defense attempts to challenge how police built their case.
Josh examines the defense argument that investigators rushed to judgment after discovering Flynn’s alleged affair with Alleigha Botner — and whether the defense could eventually try to point the finger at Botner or another possible suspect. Pasted text
Billy and Josh also dig into the extraordinary text-message evidence between Flynn and Botner, what those messages could mean for the prosecution’s theory of motive, the timeline surrounding Ashley Flynn’s death, and the defense’s attempts to identify holes in the investigation.
Then comes the ultimate Hail Mary: could Caleb Flynn take the stand in his own defense? Josh explains why it remains a possibility as the trial moves toward its final stages. Pasted text
Caleb Flynn has pleaded not guilty. The prosecution alleges he killed his wife, Ashley Flynn, and staged the scene to appear as though an intruder was responsible.

Billy and Josh also examine the explosive text messages, the prosecution’s theory of motive, the missing murder weapon, and the possibility that Flynn could take the stand in his own defense.

A major day on Hot Mics with Billy Bush as one of Lindsay Clancy’s civil attorneys, Rosemary Scappicchio, joins Billy for an extensive interview about what comes next after the criminal trial.
Scappicchio lays out the civil case against the doctors and hospitals that treated Lindsay, explains why the legal team alleges critical warning signs were missed, and discusses how testimony from the criminal trial could now become important in the civil case. She also addresses Lindsay’s current condition, the upcoming September 29 hearing, Kevin Reddington’s controversial filing involving the holdout juror, and whether Lindsay could ultimately face another criminal trial.
Billy also breaks down Patrick Clancy’s extended 60 Minutes interview, including previously unaired details about his children, his relationship with Rachel, and the trauma treatment he says helped him move forward.
Then, the Caleb Flynn murder trial takes another dramatic turn. Prosecutors introduce explosive text messages Flynn allegedly sent to his mistress, testimony about a $100,000 life insurance policy on his wife Ashley, emotional testimony from Ashley’s parents, and new details about the alleged affair. The defense still has major questions to answer as the prosecution continues building its case.
Plus, Rosemary takes Billy inside another case involving former Massachusetts State Trooper Michael Proctor, explaining why his role in the investigation of her client Miles King has become a central issue for the defense.

Today on Hot Mics with Billy Bush, we’re following several major stories making headlines.
The Caleb Flynn murder trial is underway, and prosecutors are presenting what could become some of the most damaging evidence in the case — approximately 100,000 text messages between Flynn and his mistress, including messages prosecutors say reveal his feelings toward his wife, Ashley, before her death. Flynn has pleaded not guilty, and his defense maintains that an intruder was responsible. Former Los Angeles County prosecutor turned criminal defense attorney Josh Ritter joins Billy to break down the evidence, Flynn’s 911 call, police bodycam footage and the challenge facing the defense.
Billy also shares some big personal news: he’s joining Fox News Media as a contributor, bringing his perspective on culture and the stories driving the conversation across the network’s platforms — while Hot Mics remains home base.
Then, Billy remembers Presley Gerber, the 27-year-old son of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, and reflects on Presley’s openness about his struggles with mental health and addiction.
Plus, more fallout from Amy Griffin’s New York Magazine interview. Billy examines what the article revealed — and what it left unanswered — including new questions involving Griffin’s former volleyball coach Barb Bixler, the origins of Griffin’s memories, MDMA-assisted therapy, Joleene Altum and the continuing legal battle surrounding The Tell.
And there’s another major development following the Lindsay Clancy mistrial. Defense attorney Kevin Reddington is asking the court to investigate the lone holdout juror, seeking information that includes the juror questionnaire, phone activity during deliberations and other records. The juror now has his own attorney — and he’s firing back at Reddington.
It’s another packed edition of Hot Mics with Billy Bush.

Patrick Clancy and his new wife Rachel sat down with 60 Minutes for one of the most anticipated interviews since the Lindsay Clancy trial — but did it answer the questions people have been asking?
Billy breaks down the interview, including Patrick’s emotional account of losing Cora, Dawson and Callan, why he says he forgave Lindsay, the panic attack he suffered during the trial, his decision to rebuild his life in New York, and his relationship with Rachel. Billy also examines what 60 Minutes left out — including questions surrounding Patrick and Rachel’s relationship, his current relationship with Lindsay, and other issues that have fueled intense discussion online.
Then Stan Walters, an expert in investigative interviewing and creator of the Cognitive Reliability Framework, joins Billy to analyze Patrick’s interview, his demeanor and the reliability of the statements he made to 60 Minutes.
PLUS: AMY GRIFFIN AND THE TELL
Amy Griffin is speaking out in a major new New York Magazine story asking the question at the center of the controversy surrounding her bestselling memoir: “Was Amy Griffin Telling the Truth?”
Billy goes deep on the new reporting and what Griffin now says about the memories behind The Tell. That includes her description of what she remembered before undergoing MDMA-assisted therapy, how she says MDMA helped connect those memories to the teacher she accuses of abusing her, and how those statements compare with the account presented in her memoir.
There are also new details involving the woman Griffin identifies as the “real Claudia,” Griffin’s former volleyball coach, another former classmate identified as “Allie,” and the continuing dispute with Joleene Altum, who has alleged that portions of Griffin’s memoir describe events that happened to her.
Billy examines what the New York Magazine story reports, what it leaves unanswered, and the declarations Altum says support her account.
With litigation still unfolding and discovery in its early stages, the fight over The Tell is far from over. The allegations and competing accounts discussed in this episode remain disputed.
