In August 2015, a family’s world was shattered when Limerick man Jason Corbett was brutally murdered in his luxury North Carolina home—savaged with a baseball bat and brick while his children slept just feet away. His sister, Tracey Corbett Lynch, and the rest of the Corbett family in Ireland faced not only the gut-wrenching grief of losing Jason but a harrowing fight for justice: a custody battle for his orphaned youngsters, a merciless online hate campaign orchestrated by the accused, and a high-stakes trial that ended in the convictions of Jason’s wife, Molly Martens, and her ex-FBI father, Tom Martens for second degree murder facing 20 – 25 year in prison.

But justice took another turn when those convictions were overturned on appeal. Now fully updated to include the 2023 sentencing hearing, My Brother Jason reveals the full, shocking story of what Molly and Tom Martens tried to get away with—and the extraordinary lengths the Corbett/Lynch family went to in order to honor Jason’s memory.

Now the focus of a major Netflix documentary, My Brother Jason is packed with firsthand accounts, legal drama, and an unbreakable bond of love, this bestselling true-crime memoir is both a tribute to Jason’s life and a testament to the power of family.

On August 2, 2015, Irishman Jason Corbett was killed in his North Carolina home by his American wife, Molly Martens, and her father, Tom. Inside the house that tragic night were Jason’s eight-year-old daughter, Sarah, and her brother, Jack, both asleep upstairs.
