The jurors who will decide whether a former airline captain murdered missing campers Russell Hill and Carol Clay have been chosen. Greg Lynn, 57, stood at the back of the Supreme Court in Melbourne and pleaded not guilty to two counts of murder as dozens of potential jurors were brought into the court. Fifteen jurors were selected on Monday morning, and 12 of them will ultimately decide whether Lynn is guilty or innocent of the two charges.

“It will be alleged that Mr Lynn shot Ms Clay in the head, as a result killed her, and that Mr Lynn killed Mr Hill,” he told the jurors. “These events are alleged to have occurred on 20 March 2020.” The judge said Lynn was working as an airline captain for Jetstar at the time of the alleged killings. He instructed the jury to carefully consider all evidence presented to them over the four-to-six week trial, and put aside any sympathy, prejudice or bias towards Lynn or the two victims.
