About this deal

I was hoping there would be a retrial so my truth and my brother’s truth could both be heard. Instead, all we have is this, a victim impact statement. Sarah Corbett described how she 'treasured' a framed photograph Molly took off her wedding ring almost immediately and told me to stop crying and "Get over it" in the days after he was killed. Tracey Lynch: Absolutely. Tracy Lynch told "48 Hours" she feared Molly would kill Jason's children.

Mike Earnest: I think, you know, she maybe was looking for something different, and that this might get her involved, too, in something that I think she was passionate about, which is children. I never felt I could call someone my own since I lost my Dad. I am drowning every day in pain. When I was a young teenager, I used to think sometimes it would be easier if I wasn’t here any more and at least that way I could be with my Dad and my Mam and apologise and feel safe. I never got to see him proud of me and the feeling of not having him alongside me haunts me in every dream. Every moment I walk this planet and it is so hard.

Separately, the mother of Molly Martens Corbett told police that her daughter and her husband Jason Corbett had fought since they were married, the court was told. The tragedy and trauma I have had to deal with growing up destroyed me. Every day I wake up I have the constant feeling of never being enough and punish myself in ways that I know I don’t deserve but I can’t stop myself. Tracey Lynch: They didn't have a scratch, an abrasion. … Molly had a delicate bracelet on her that — that night that she continued to wear — throughout the trial. Just hours later, Tom Martens, a 30-year FBI veteran, explains that he had been spending the night at his daughter's home. After being awakened by a commotion upstairs, he says he grabbed an aluminum Little League baseball bat he brought as a gift for the kids – and ran to her room.

His wife Molly Martens Corbett and her father, former FBI agent Tom Martens, were later tried and convicted on charges of second degree murder and voluntary manslaughter.

A DAD & DAUGHTER ON TRIAL

Molly Martens had an extraordinary ability to dissemble, deceive and manipulate others through lies, and placed recording devices around her home to manufacture evidence of domestic abuse, the Davidson County Superior Court heard on Tuesday, the seventh day of a sentencing hearing for Tom and Molly Martens who have pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter. He repeated multiple times that anyone caught capturing images of potential jurors could be held in contempt of court, an offense punishable by potential jail time. He told the court that Martens Corbett had "confided to multiple witnesses that she believed Jason had killed his first wife, and that a similar fate would befall her". Adoption was her desire,” Alan Martin told the witness, and she would stop at nothing to achieve it. When the domestic violence expert said he didn’t like the word “lie” because there were good lies too, when someone is not telling the truth but they are doing it for what they believe are good reasons. He said: “Molly was all about the kids, and everyone knew that.”

Your honour, I wish that you could have met my Dad. He had this big, warm personality. He was so good to others and always tried to make other people’s lives better. When my mother died, to deal with his grief, Dad did good things to help others. I try to help others to deal with my grief.

SELF-DEFENSE OR MURDER?

The children were removed from Molly's care and placed with Lynch, who was staying at a hotel in North Carolina as the custody battle waged on. Tom and Molly were allowed a visit., which was recorded on cellphone video. It would prove to be one of their last: When I was six years old, Molly would sit in the bath for hours. She hit herself with a hair brush and had me take pictures. Mike Earnest: I've known Tom Martins for 50 years. … This is not someone who loses control. This is not someone who is going to kill someone out of malice. … I absolutely do not believe there's any way Tom would hit him while he's down.

Lynn Shanahan | Jason's longtime friend: I think Jason became surplus to her requirements. She didn't need him anymore. She just wanted the children. Molly had been engaged to another man, who says they were still together when she left for Ireland to become Jason's au pair. Molly threw it down the stairs and screamed at me that SHE IS DEAD I’M YOUR MOTHER‚ THAT WOMAN IS DEAD. I was seven years old.

Connor Martens: The kids' statement say that Jason was an abuser. And those interviews were conducted in professional environments on multiple occasions where Molly was not present.
