Molly Corbett and Thomas Martens, her father, were found guilty of second-degree murder in connection with the death of Jason Corbett.
They were sentenced to prison for a term of 20 to 25 years.
Davidson County Assistant Clerk of Courts Jo Black has confirmed that the high-profile murder trial of Molly Corbett and her father, Thomas Martens, will remain in Davidson County.
The legal team for Molly and Thomas had requested a change of venue, seeking to move the trial outside the county.
The charges against Molly and Thomas are in connection with the death of Jason Corbett, Molly’s husband, in 2015.
Jason, an Irish businessman, was tragically beaten to death in the couple’s residence.
The defense lawyers argued that false information, allegedly present in search warrants, was published by various news organizations, potentially impacting the fairness of the trial.
Scheduled to begin on July 17, the trial has garnered significant public attention due to the high-profile nature of the case.
As the trial proceeds, the focus remains on seeking justice for the late Jason Corbett and determining the truth behind the events that led to his untimely demise.
