You raise some very interesting questions. I don't have answers, but a few more questions maybe. It appears to me that there's some deep dysfunction in that family. MM has a history of mental health issues - that can happen anyone, anywhere, anytime. It's the way it was handled that leads me to...
Interview with KM on Newstalk FM this morning - nothing really new, but I hadn't heard him speak before. Also, it seems he's planning to write about his experience of this story.

Hi there! I'm pretty new on this site too, though I'd been following the case since 2015. I agree, it's been amazing to read the insights of people here.
I haven't seen any updates re. the appeal, but according to this link http://www.thejournal.ie/martens-corbett-appeal-3540502-Aug2017/ it...
Ah, I see. They're using the 'He-made-me-do-it' defence. My daughter used that once. She claimed that her sister 'made-me-hit-her'. I made her stand in the corner for 10 minutes as punishment, 1 minute/year+3. She was SEVEN. This is MURDER.
But hey, they're probably hoping for a similar...

Also noticed that TM has now been moved to Alexander CI since yesterday 9/13. Doesn't look like a picnic there

I know I'm obsessing about this, but does anyone know what the "Sentence Status: Amended" means on MMs file? I thought...

So glad that there's someone who knows the system who can bring some insight! Thank you, Grouchymom!
BTW, does anybody know what's happening with the Wrongful Death suit?
Two things I thought were interesting in this article - link from the Herald back on the Aug. 25th...
I agree 100% with everything you said. Following this story, reading ill-informed FB comments, witnessing shifting commentary from people who 'should know better' given LE background, base, vile, grubby tactiics being played out like cards from a fixed deck, and on and on it goes.
I get...
I was just wondering if you had any insight on the reason for this?
I'm not sure if you can see the changes -
Projected Release Date on 08/30/2017 is 03/12/2039
Projected Release Date on 08/31/2017 is 08/02/2041
Would the date just have been input incorrectly at some point?
Also wondering...
Regarding the question of evidence from the criminal trial, here's a link to a booklet entitled "Civil Justice for Victims of Crime in North Carolina" produced by the National Crime Victim Bar Association...
Hi, I'm a newcomer to WS, following a different case, but I've always wondered what on earth the case of AF was all about. It seemed to be all over MSM at one point, and then nothing concrete - just the odd sensational snippet. Well, let's face it, the whole story is 'sensational'.
My thoughts...
I so wish I'd seen those earlier posts on MMs FB page. I was interested then, but only listened out for MSM info whenever it came up.
Speaking of MSM, here's a link to a Newstalk radio interview with MM (very brief) and more interestingly, with ME. He's giving his thoughts on MMs motherly...
I've been reading back over the last few pages of this thread. I've been really impressed by the insightful comments, particularly #563 #576 and #581 from stmarysmead, #584 from Frizby, #634 from francesca and many more from kittythehare.
One more tuppenceworth.
From KMs book, I think it's...
I so heartily agree with you.
I'd add that the US/NC justice system also comes out of this with inspirational strength and moral integrity.
Tragedy brings out the best some people - and the worst in others.
Here's another clip to add to Grouchymom's list...
