OverviewIn 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. ‘A compelling, sobering story of justice finally done and of the love and commitment of a single family coping with unimaginable tragedy’ The Sunday Business Post Full Product DetailsAuthor: Tracey Corbett-Lynch , Ralph RiegelPublisher: Gill Imprint: Gill Books Dimensions: Width: 12.70cm , Height: 2.60cm , Length: 19.70cm Weight: 0.334kg ISBN: 9781804580882ISBN 10: 1804580880 Pages: 352 Publication Date: 06 June 2024 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
