This holiday season marked a dark anniversary for Hannah Lynch. Just a few days before Christmas in 2022, she was found in her front yard in the middle of a blizzard with a gunshot wound to her head.

In the middle of the night, first responders drove her from her home in Brookville, Indiana, to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. She lived.

And next month, her husband is scheduled to go on trial on charges of attempted murder – of Lynch and a police officer he shot that night, according to the court documents.

Few details have been released in the past year, but today's story recounts everything we know ahead of the trial.
