Caleb Flynn has been charged with murdering his wife, Ashley Flynn. The 39-year-old, who appeared as a contestant on American Idol in 2013, is accused of killing his wife on February 16 in Tipp City, Ohio. He has been charged with one count of murder, two counts of felonious assault and two counts of tampering with evidence, according to Miami Valley Jails records. 

On Monday, the police were called to the home on Cunningham Court around 2:30am after receiving reports of a burglary. According to audio obtained by Fox News Digital, Flynn told a 911 dispatcher that someone broke into his house and killed his wife. "Oh my god, somebody broke into my home, somebody broke into my home and killed my wife," he said on the call. "My wife, she's got two shots to her head, there's blood everywhere. Oh my god, oh my god, oh my God."

When asked if Ashley, 37, was breathing, Caleb replied: "No, I don't think so." He could then be heard saying: "Ashley, Ashley, baby, baby please, oh my god, there's no - she's not!"

When law enforcement arrived, they found Ashley with a gunshot wound and she was pronounced dead at the scene. The couple's two children were also inside the home at the time of the shooting. Neither of them were physically injured. 

Flynn, a former music pastor, claimed the door leading to the garage door was "wide open". Tipp City Police Chief Greg Adkins said that there were signs of forced entry and confirmed that two shots were fired inside the home. Flynn was arrested three days later.

Police Chief Adkins has said that the investigation into Ashley’s death is still ongoing.

"The family and community deserve a thorough, professional and compassionate investigation into this very sensitive matter," he told reporters on Thursday. "As a result of the investigation, probable cause existed to charge Caleb Flynn with the murder of his wife.

"Due to the ongoing nature of this case, specific investigative details will not be released at this time."

Ashley was a volleyball coach at Tippecanoe Middle School as well as a substitute teacher and a former Tipp City Schools teacher.

"She was known for her beautiful smile, warmth, kindness, and the positive impact she had on so many — both in and out of the classroom and on the court," the school district said in a Facebook post.

During his American Idol audition for the show's 12th season, Flynn said in an interview: "I absolutely love the Lord. I love my wife more than anything. She is very, very pretty. ... I love her. But, you know, I'm just a normal person who absolutely loves to sing more than anything in the world."

According to his LinkedIn profile, Flynn worked at Richard D. Smith & Sons Inc., a family-run company specialising in worship seating and commercial flooring.
