Molly And Tomas Martens Found Guilty Of Murdering Jason Corbett
Molly and Tomas Martens are beginning their new life behind bars, after being found guilty of murdering Jason Corbett.
The Limerick man's wife and her father were yesterday sentenced to a minimum of 20 years in prison.
The pair beat Mr Corbett to death with a baseball bat and a paving brick at his home in North Carolina two years ago.
They claimed they acted in self defence because they feared for their lives.
The Limerick man's family say the verdict is a vindication of his character - his sister Tracey Lynch says they will do everything it can to honour Jason's memory:
