And Jason drugged with Mollys, Trazodone putting him into a deep sleep adds to the inconsistencies. The fact he was "not used" to this drug would amplify its effect. "Patients who take the drug for a sleep disorder can experience the sedative effects within 30 minutes, depending on the type...

If that is the truth as reported, Molly Marten has indeed has a "brass neck". Having heard the kids speak esp Sarah pre the NC Appeal Court ruling of her daily struggle as the result of being orphaned as the result of the killing of her dad shows how out of touch to the reality these are. And...

Court summation very much skewed in the Martens favour of the evidential value of the children evidence.

Reading the very reliable reporting of Ralph Riegel of the Irish Independent, he doesn't state the NC Public Prosecutor was in negotiations with the Martens. What he states is was a "precondition" of the Martens for the MS plea bargain it would be for "time served". Its not clear if there was a...

I understand of a re-trial is as if the first trial did not take place. The primary rule of admitting evidence is does it have 'probative value'. "The expression 'probative value' is defined to mean: the extent to which the evidence could rationally affect the assessment of the probability of...

There are so many inconsistencies in the Martens story, that nothing stands up. From the baseball-bat origins, to the supposed nightmare of Sarah Corbett. They also spin a lie about the death of Jason Corbett first wife Margaret which is not supported by the facts. Jason was drugged that night...

Yes indeed Tracy Lynch is like a lioness defending its young in getting justice for her beloved brother Jason and the father of his kids. I presume the DA of NC was testing the water to see if it would be acceptable a manslaughter plea. I believe the message went out quite clearly to all...

The Corbett family launched a petition on www.change.org called 'Retrial for Molly and Tom Martens' which aims to garner public support for blocking the plea deal. It exceeded its 7,500-signature target within 72 hours. Sign the Petition Molly and Tom Martens held without bond pending...

I would think the process of “judicial review” would be open to the Corbett family to get justice for their beloved brother and father. The US has the common law sys from its British occupation. The same system apples to Ireland. It allows the challenge of state agencies the execution or the...

Is there a link to this?

And in all that domestic abuse she claims, she not once made a police complaint or showed any injuries. Rather her neighbors recall he goading her husband.

The maxim sounds now so shallow and empty “Fiat justitia, ruat caelum” - let justice be done, though the heavens fall. Yes indeed the Marten family are something else, letting loose their “psychiatric” daughter on an unsuspecting bereaved family with two young kids without a shred of morality...

The only unequivocal message I take from it is the homicide to Jason Corbett doesn't matter when it involves supposes "upstanding" citizens. In contrast the search-capture and trial of Mir Aimal Kansi left no US stones un-turned, even inflight refueling for the 12hr flight so asylum could not be...
