The affair with Emmett Corrigan
Kandi had recently been fired from a previous law firm when she met Corrigan through a mutual friend in 2010. He was married and had five children, and his wife, Ashlee Corrigan (née Birk), was unaware of the relationship.
The affair continued for several months. By early 2011, tensions had risen sharply at both households. Ashlee had grown suspicious and urged her husband to seek marriage counselling.
On the evening of 11 March 2011, Emmett left the family home after an argument.
What happened at the Walgreens car park?
That same evening, Kandi drove to a Walgreens pharmacy in Meridian. She and Corrigan were together in his vehicle when Rob Hall arrived armed with a .380 ACP pistol.
A confrontation broke out. Surveillance footage showed Rob pacing in the car park before shots were fired. Kandi testified to a heated verbal and physical struggle between the two men. She said she tried to step between them, walked away, and then heard multiple gunshots.
Emmett Corrigan was shot in the chest and head and died at the scene. Rob suffered a surface wound to the head and later claimed to have no memory of the shooting.
Rob Hall's trial and conviction
Rob Hall was charged with first-degree murder. His defence argued self-defence, citing a claim that Corrigan had threatened him during a phone call earlier that evening.
The prosecution argued premeditation: Rob had driven to the scene armed and ready for a confrontation. Kandi's testimony changed several times, and the presiding judge, Judge Michael McLaughlin, stated he had never seen a witness so thoroughly discredited in court.
In October 2012, a jury convicted Rob of second-degree murder and the unlawful use of a firearm. He was sentenced to 17 to 30 years in prison.
The Idaho Court of Appeals upheld the conviction in 2015. The Idaho Supreme Court affirmed it again in November 2016. Rob Hall currently serves his sentence at the Idaho State Correctional Institution in Kuna, Ada County, with parole eligibility on 24 August 2028.
Kandi Hall's own conviction: embezzlement
Separate from the murder case, Kandi was arrested in May 2011 for stealing from a former employer. Investigators found she had diverted more than $30,000 from clients of the Martens Law Office into personal accounts.
In December 2012, she pleaded guilty to grand theft. Judge McLaughlin sentenced her to 14 years, with two years fixed, under a retained jurisdiction programme that included six months in a prison-based treatment programme.
She was released from prison in June 2014 and placed on probation until 2026.
Kandi Hall and Dr. Phil: facing Emmett Corrigan's widow
In April 2015, Kandi Hall and Ashlee Corrigan came face to face for the first time since Rob Hall's trial. The meeting took place on the Dr. Phil show and drew national attention. Kandi said:
"I am absolutely sorry. I have been sorry since day one."
Ashlee responded with defiance rather than bitterness.
"I just want you to know that I'm still standing. You might have made me fall by some of your choices, but you didn't break me."
Where is Kandi Hall now in 2026?
Kandi Hall's probation ended in 2026, completing the legal consequences of her conviction. However, she has made no public statements and has avoided social media and press attention since her release.
No verified source confirms her current location, employer, or relationship status. It is unclear whether she and Rob Hall have formally divorced, though they have had no reported contact.
Her choice to remain out of the public eye appears deliberate, given the scale of the coverage the case received.
What happened to Ashlee Corrigan?
Ashlee Corrigan (née Birk) turned her grief into advocacy. She remarried, becoming Ashlee Boyson. She and her second husband, Scott Boyson, live in Utah. Together they have two children, bringing her total to seven children.
