Jason Corbett was found beaten to death in his North Carolina home — struck with a baseball bat and a brick. His wife, Molly Martens, and her father, a retired FBI agent, swore it was self-defense. But investigators said the crime scene told a different story: delayed 911 calls, staged details, and a victim who never stood a chance.
Both were convicted of second-degree murder and sentenced to decades in prison. But after years of appeals, their convictions were overturned. In 2023, they struck a plea deal, served just over four years, and walked free.
Now, with a Netflix documentary reigniting debate, one question remains: Did Molly Martens and her father get away with murder, or was it truly self-defense?
