Sorry I wasn't very clear, that's what I was trying to say earlier, that if the vacuum cleaner had been moved by someone and that single thing being moved was the only thing that was inconsistent at the scene then it wouldn't really be a big deal who moved it. It is only because there are numerous things that do not add up with the statements by the defendants that it suddenly has relevance. Hope that makes more sense!

Im struggling with the paving stone in the bedroom myself.

Just asking because I don't know but if they are going to say that Emt moved the vacuum why didn't they ask them while they were on the stand . Will they recall them and ask or can they just suggest it without being specific. They had them on the stand then was time to ask if they had moved it .

P93


Police warrant report; David Lynch stated that his nephew Jack stated to him and his grief counsellor that TM gave him a year previous a red and black bat with black grips.

Police warrant report, concludes based on the evidence of Jack holding same and photographs of this bat with Jack using it on MM FB they conclude the bat is the same or very similar as was recovered at crime scene and this was stored in the equipment bag in the garage of his then home.

.

P94

Police report states this to be an aluminium bat.


It this is the case I’m sure the prosecution will be taking their lead detective though it and the fact TM stated he purchased it the previous day as being untrue. And if LE could not find another bat it will be fairly conclusive there was only 1 bat. This will be another leg of TM corollary defense gone. For the jury it will be damning and will wonder is the defense all porky-pies. Anyone know is the defense allegation that JC killed his first wife which is untrue is till running or is it gone.

Can’t find any links to the entrance(s) to garage.

From what I am understanding from piecing together the really patchy reports, there were numerous items in the room that appeared to have been interfered with, the reason the vacuum seems to be the focus is that it had blood spatter that directly contradicted it's positioning in the space. I'm hoping that the other items will be reported on also in the recap as it's really hard to follow at present exactly how much evidence the prosecution are presenting in court.

Not if the defense can show proof of purchase.

My recollection of earlier articles are patchy but I believe ME stated in an interview that it was not a newly purchased bat but rather an old bat used by one of MM's brothers. Therefore there would not be any receipt.

I agree Emma, that was definitely the theory that was put forward initially, but I'm sure in opening statements the defense made reference to the purchase of the bat...I'll see if I can find the link.

In addition to the vacuum being focused on wasn't the blood on the vacuum dried blood? Which leads to the amount of time before 911 was called.

It was indeed dried blood, dried blood on the vacuum, dried blood and congealed blood on JC and EMT stating the body was cool to touch. All indicative of a length of time before the 911 call was made

Can't think of any logical reason, a paving stone would be laying around a master bedroom. I think someone left the room, and grabbed the first "weapon" they could find. Perhaps this person was told by another to do so.

Think there is a bit more to it at this stage and I’m sure Police questioning when TM cooperated would have immediately checked to its validity by going to the store and would not be later seeking a warrant for same and raising the issue of it being the same if they could concur that TM evidence bore validity. Also to why would TM buy the exact same bat for Jack year later is very questionable. There is one thing kids don’t like is same, yah if it had different in some way different colour etc. The ball is in TM court and from what we know it will be a difficult one.

Thanks Stephan I do recall what the search warrant said; I do not believe that there was any 'new' bat brought to the property. I am rather going by the defence assertion that there was indeed a new bat for JC (but no gift for SC) brought that evening and how this can be proven. Newly purchased is easy, you have a receipt. But ME as family spokesperson has stated it was a bat from the house in Tenneessee so not as easy to prove. If we had any proof - either way - of whether a second bat was found at the property this would be very conclusive to me.

Early in the investigation into Jason Paul Corbett's death, his wife, Molly Martens Corbett, and his father in-law, Thomas Martens admitted to Davidson County Sheriffs Detectives that they struck Jason Corbett in the head with a concrete paving brick and an aluminum baseball bat. Thomas Martens advised Detectives that the baseball bat used to assault Jason Corbett was brought to the 160 Panther Creek Ct. residence on the night of the assault by Thomas Martens. Thomas Martens indicated that he brought the baseball bat to the residence as a gift to his step* grandson, Jack Corbett, but the assault on his son in-law, Jason Corbett, occurred before Thomas Martens could give the baseball bat to his step-grandson.
Deputies from the Davidson County Sheriffs Crime Scene and Evidence Unit, inspected and processed the crime scene located at 160 Panther Creek Ct. on August 2, 2015. One of the items collected by the Crime Scene Detectives was a child's aluminum baseball bat which appeared to be covered in wet and dried blood. The baseball bat also had what appeared to be human hair attached to the barrel of the bat. The baseball bat was black and red in color with black rubber hand grips on the base. During the course of the investigation into the death of Jason Paul Corbett, Detectives with the Davidson County Sheriff's Office have had several conversations with members of Jason Corbett's immediate family, to include his sisters and brothers. His sister, Tracy Lynch, was granted guardianship and custody of Jason Corbett's 2 minor children in a custody matter heard in Davidson County Courts. Recently, in a conversation with David and Tracy Lynch, Detectives learned that Jason Corbett's two children are involved in grief counseling in Ireland to assist them with adjusting to the loss of their father. Davidson County Sheriffs Detectives learned during their conversation with the Lynch family that Jason Corbett's son, Jack, shared information with his grief counselor, about a baseball bat his step-grandfather had given him. David Lynch advised Detectives during their recent conversation, that Jack shared with his grief counselor that Thomas Martens had given him a baseball bat last summer and that Jack used that baseball bat to play on his baseball team in North Carolina. David Lynch further advised Detectives that Jack had also shared with his counselor that he keeps his baseball equipment to include the baseball bat his step-grandfather gave him in a black sports equipment bag in the garage of their Winston-Salem home. David Lynch told Detectives that he asked Jack about what he had shared with the grief counselor and Jack told him that the baseball bat Thomas Martens gave him was a black and red bat with black grips. Additionally, during the course of this investigation, Detectives with the Davidson County Sheriffs Office have viewed photographs of Jack Corbett with baseball equipment which were put on public view by Molly Martens Corbett, via internet social media websites to include Facebook. Based on the aforementioned information, I have probable cause to believe that the baseball bat used to assault Jason Paul Corbett may have come from the sports equipment bag used by Jack Corbett and stored in the garage of the 160 Panther Creek Ct. residence. Additionally, I have probable cause to believe that photographs of Jack Corbett using and possessing a baseball bat similar in appearance to the baseball bat used to assault his father are located and stored inside the residence. Those photographs may be actual physical photographs or stored as digital files on computers, computer devices, or other digital storage devices or media. I respectfully request that the court issue a search warrant for the 160 Panther Creek Ct. residence and any items seized

ffs what's with the late disclosure. This investigation has been going on for two years should be no reason for gambling on testimony being blocked for late disclosure.

[FONT=&quot]In regard to the cement paver, James said the distribution of blood on the paver is “not consistent with a single impact,” meaning he belives the paver was used more than once. The analyst also stated the transfer blood stains and hair fragments on the aluminum bat are “consistent with impacting the head of Jason Corbett.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The analyst clarified that it is not common practice to test every single blood stain.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The defense later asked if it was the “best practice” to see a person wearing the clothes he tests, and James agreed. The analyst then testified he was not provided a photo of Martens wearing the boxers. James also said he was not asked to examine a photo of Molly Corbett that showed blood on her forehead and cheek.[/FONT][FONT=&quot]The defense asked if James felt he received complete and accurate information to complete his report. James replied that he did.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]″(The information) felt sufficient to draw my conclusions,” James said.[/FONT]
