Wrongful death lawsuit filed amid Jason Corbett murder trial

A wrongful death lawsuit has been filed against Molly Corbett and her father, Thomas Martens, as they face trial on murder charges in the death of Jason Corbett.

David Lynch, the executor of Mr Corbett’s estate, filed the lawsuit in Davidson Superior Court last week and also named Molly Corbett’s mother, Sharon Martens, as a defendant.

Mr Lynch is the husband of Tracey Lynch, Jason Corbett’s sister, and they have guardianship of Mr Corbett’s children from his first marriage, Jack and Sarah. The family lives in Limerick but are in North Caroline with other members of Mr Corbett’s family for the trial.
