Pilot on Trial for Triple Murder Wanted to Silence Witness Testimony: Prosecutor

A former commercial airline pilot is on trial for a gruesome triple murder of three neighbors in 2015. Christian “Kit” Martin was arrested in May 2019 as he was about to fly a plane out of Kentucky. Martin is accused of killing the neighbors, including married couple Calvin and Pamela Phillips, allegedly to prevent Calvin from testifying against him in a court martial. The third victim, Ed Dansereau, was killed because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time, according to prosecutors.
