Jurors tasked with deciding whether Greg Lynn killed two campers have asked what happens if they cannot reach a unanimous verdict. The 57-year-old pilot has been waiting more than five days for jurors to decide his fate, after a five-week trial in Melbourne’s Supreme Court. He has pleaded not guilty to two charges of murder over the March 2020 deaths of Russell Hill and Carol Clay while camping in Victoria’s alpine region.
Justice Michael Croucher read out the jury’s note to the court, which asked whether Lynn must be found guilty of both charges of murder or not guilty of both charges. He said that was not correct, explaining it was open to them to find him guilty of one murder and not guilty in the other death. “You must consider each charge separately,” Croucher said.
