Airline pilot Greg Lynn has been convicted of the murder of Carol Clay but found innocent of killing Russell Hill, after 12 jurors returned to court with a split verdict.
The 57-year-old faced a five-week trial in the Supreme Court accused of the March 2020 murders of Hill and Clay, taking to the witness stand to tell his story in the final weeks.
Lynn said during the trial that the two deaths were accidental and admitted to burning the crime scene and destroying their bodies.
Justice Michael Croucher discharged the jury and Lynn will be taken back to prison to await his sentence.
