Clinton, TN (WOKI) Jury selection begins Monday, August 12 in the death penalty case involving an Anderson County man.
Sean Finnegan is accused of murder, rape and exploitation of a child.
Investigators say Finnegan and his girlfriend Rebecca Dishman lured Jennifer Paxton into their home in August of 2020 with the promise of giving her a place to stay, and they paid her $100 to have sexual relations with them.
Once Paxton entered the home, officials say she was held against her will, tortured, strangled and left to die.
The couple was formally indicted for murder by an Anderson County Grand Jury in June of 2021.
