There are NO Opening Statements On Law and Crime for Phase One of this Trial so we will do a brief case overview and begin with the Testimony of Rebecca Dishman.

In 2019, Tennessee couple Sean Finnegan and Rebecca Dishman invited 35-year-old Jennifer Paxton into their home, promising her a place to live. Once inside, the couple brutally beat her with a bat, tortured, raped, and strangled her to death. Dishman pleaded guilty to first-degree murder in 2023, but Sean Finnegan pleaded not guilty and was convicted at trial. Finnegan now faces the penalty phase where he could be sentenced to life behind bars for the heinous crime.
