" I want to kill her too" his mistress said in one of 100,000 text messages they exchanged over 1.5 years. That averages 300 text a day.
This is an update on the Palin Sin Trial.
The husband accused of murdering his wife on February 16th, 2026.
Not only did he murder his wife, he murdered his wife while his kids were in a home sleeping.
He has two preteen daughters.
If you listen to this series, you've heard the fake 911 call from him, the fake setup, and his confession, I'm going to put it in my words, when he told the 911 operator, Ashley was shot twice in the head.
How could he see that with her hair, all that blood, and that brain matter? Well, the moment I have been waiting for, and I'm sure you have been waiting for, the testimony from his former mistress.
Her name is Aaliyah Botner.
She's 24.
She said she had no idea that Caleb was married.
Although, Caleb was a minister of music and they worked together at their church.
the church members or pastor, I can't remember who said it, they said, Aaliyah resigned all of a sudden and didn't give a reason.
They had no idea they were having an affair.
So they say.
I'm sure someone in that church had an idea.
Why would she quit all of a sudden? So she had no idea he was married, even though I'm sure his wife went to church with him and his daughters.
She said he didn't wear a ring.
That's why she didn't know.
Okay, I'll give it to her.
She's 24.
Probably somewhat naive, but I'm guessing she shortly found out he was married and still stayed in it.
I'm not blaming her because I can probably relate.
He was, I think, 39, at least 36, at least, he was 12 years older than her.
He lived more years than her.
And I'm sure she was melancholy related by him.
But I'm going to see if I can go back to her trial, I mean to her interview.
