As it happened: What accused killer Gregory Lynn told the jury about missing campers’ deaths
Breaking his silence for the first time, Gregory Lynn revealed to the jury that his family found it “quite comical” how similar his car was to the Nissan Patrol police were searching for in the missing campers case. Follow our live updates.
Crown prosecutor Daniel Porceddu is putting to Gregory Lynn that his version of events about Hill discharging the firearm was a cover in case other campers heard multiple shots being fired.
He is asking Lynn about how as a pilot he is trained to think rationally, methodically and calmly in crises but Porceddu argues that Lynn now wants the jury to believe he was “panicked” after the deaths.
“A better result is always achieved without panic,” Lynn replies. “I had never been faced with two dead people before.“
Porceddu says Lynn still had the presence of mind to go to some effort to clean up the scene, take the firearm away, pack up his own campsite, take the pair’s phones and remove the knife from Mr Hill’s chest.
He asks: “These are signs of a very calm person?“
Lynn replies: “No, I was a panicked person. I’ve been trained to remain calm. I can manage stress.″
