Limerick man’s body to be flown home from US today

A custody court hearing involving his two children, Jack, 10, and Sarah, 8, is due to be heard in a North Carolina court tomorrow. The children were born to Mr Corbett and his first wife, Mags, who died of an asthma attack in 2006.

Molly Martens, 32, came from the US to Ireland to work as an au pair to the Corbett children, after their mother’s death. Mr Corbett subsequently moved with his two children to the US, where he married Ms Martens. Ms Martens was the only person interviewed by police about Mr Corbett’s death, which was caused by a blunt-force injury to the head on August 2.
