The trial of Molly Martens

One thing that always puzzled me was the time taken to make the 911 call. Plenty of time to get their stories straight and stage the crime scene. Did Molly lies strectch to pulling the wool over her fathers eyes so much so that he would do anything to stop her going to jail. Did he take shared responsibility of the murder to protect his daughter from taking the wrap. Trouble was, they were in so deep with the lie, they had to keep the charade going for the plea deal trial.

But, it wasn’t just Molly and the father involved, the extended Martens family was involved. Did you not read of the role played by Bobby Martens as well ?

Anyway , I’ll give them one thing, they did a top class job of blackening the name of Jason Corbett.

I've read that he disliked him from the start. That will only have gotten worse once Molly started telling lies. I get the impression that the Martens weren't on the same wavelength as the Corbetts and looked down on them. Something tells me nobody would've been good enough for his princess though.

You quoted the whole thing but the first line. Why did you leave out the first line?

Strange. Anyway here it is.

If I am the sentencing Judge looking at the independent facts and information that has so far being put forth.

Also it was in response to this post.

The sentencing Judge in mitigation gave them effectively only 7 more months in custody.

So to answer your question, do I stand over my opinion of how the Judge was gauging the sentencing hearing?

Well yeah, clearly. The sentencing verifies that opinion, would be rather odd if I didn't stand over it, wouldn't it?

Yes, I see that now… “if I am the sentencing judge.” Predictable alright. It’s you who think the children are liars.

I answered your question again in good faith, but again you failed to answer mine.

Tracy has said a lot of things in her books, but that doesn't equate to tangible tested evidence. Basically and I am quoting Ralf Reigel, Irish Independent Journalist who co authored one of her books.

MURDERED Irish businessman Jason Corbett had a bag packed at his North Carolina home and was preparing to take his two children back to Ireland when he was beaten to death in his sleep by his American wife and her father.

The bag – which contained clothing for his children, Jack and Sarah – had mysteriously vanished from the murder scene when Davidson County Sheriff Department officers arrived at Mr Corbett’s home in the early hours of August 2, 2015.

The most obvious question would be to an independent observer how would she know? She lived 3 and a half thousand miles away?

Anyway, Tracy was afforded the opportunity to testify in the first trial in front of the Judge under oath.

The only thing she could offer about Jason's desire to move back Ireland was a conversation in the summer of 2014 where Jason said he would like to back to Ireland before Jack started secondary school. Jack was 9.

Outside the presence of the jury, Lynch testified that Jason had expressed to her he wanted to go back to Ireland.

Ms Lynch added: “He had good friends there (in Ireland) and appreciated them. He planned to go back there before Jack started secondary school.”

But David Freedman, Martens’ attorney, got her to acknowledge on cross-examination that Jason had not made any plane reservations or made any other arrangements to return to Ireland on a permanent basis.

It's your 3rd time asking this question.

I have already answered it twice.

Again you have failed to answer one of mine.

So I will have to leave it there with you.

Well as you seem to know, please explain to us exactly what happened and why it happened.

A credible explanation that makes sense - as to why a wife and father in law ended up that night beating a relative to death.

Something happened, some matter must have provoked an escalation.

So please tell us?

Two people beat a man mercilessly until he was dead....and then some

And then told lie after lie to try justfy why they did what they did.

You need to keep up

Look if you're going to engage in a discussion and call out others who post sensible queries.. you've got to come up with better that this wishy washy tabloid stuff.

Again. WHY did these two people beat a man mercilessly until he was dead????????

If you don't know the answer, fair enough. Just say so.

I don't know and given that I don't, I'm not prepared to jump to some conclusion that they're both evil mad psychopaths.

Only Molly and Tom truly know. It’s inside their heads, not ours. No idea why you wanting to use the “why” as almost a way to lessen/diminish the barbarity of what they did.

And you are using it. Not sure on you, but likely you’re also wanting to believe the sickening lies they told to sully Jason’s character. To make him out to be an abuser and that this somehow led Molly “have” to act.

we know one poster absolutely thinks the killing was justified, albeit he tries to hide this.

My view is that she did it to end his life because she is a horrible person. End his life, make it out to be a domestic that he started, then sully his name to garner sympathy and then get off with the crime, and gain custody to the children. It’s what most educated folks would believe.

there was no escalation… she planned it that evening. Not a scratch on her or Tom

it was premeditated…

There seems to little doubt about the fact that Molly wanted the step children.

I didn’t say that she was very fond of them, she doesn’t seem capable of loving anyone except herself.

There is little doubt that Corbett was beaten to death in his own bed. You ask what did Martens got out of it ?

Obviously murder is often driven by hatred and a obsession( by the murderer ) to get their own way .

in this case Molly seems to have been very unstable and her father believed her lies, I expect her father knows better now,

there was no eye contact between the father and daughter when they were leaving court.

Molly Martens herself could post here that she deliberately murdered Jason and that she lied nd lied and lied to get away with it, and still Boggles would argue against it, and her......

Exact same weird defending of Markle, no matter what Markle did.......
