In August 2015, Limerick man Jason Corbett was killed by his wife, Molly Martens, and her father, ex-FBI agent Tom Martens, in the bedroom of their luxury North Carolina home. He had been savagely beaten to death with a baseball bat and brick while his children slept nearby.
For his sister, Tracey Corbett-Lynch, and the rest of his family in Ireland it was just the beginning of the nightmare that would involve a custody battle for his orphaned children, an online hate campaign by Molly Martens and a gripping trial that would lead to her conviction, alongside her father, for his murder. But that was not the end of it. Tom and Molly Martens' convictions were later quashed on appeal and the pair agreed a plea deal, accepting the charges of voluntary manslaughter in relation to the killing.
Now fully updated to include details of the 2023 sentencing hearing, My Brother Jason reveals the full and shocking story of what Molly and Tom Martens tried to get away with.
