Greg Lynn is in courtroom four of the Supreme Court, listening as Carol Clay’s daughter, sister and best friend read statements to the court about how they had suffered after she vanished.

A jury found Lynn, a former airline pilot, guilty of murdering Clay earlier this year in the case of the missing campers after a five-week trial.

Following seven days of deliberations, jurors rejected Lynn’s claims that Clay, 73, died accidentally at a remote campsite in eastern Victoria. Lynn was found not guilty of murdering Russell Hill, 74.

In court today, Lynn watched as Clay’s sister, Jillian Walker, read out her victim impact statement from a video link shown on a large screen.

While he briefly looked to the roof of the courtroom, he largely remained fixed on the screen.
