The trial of Molly Martens

I think it's all just low level trolling

I agree this is indeed a possibility and not at all a conspiracy theory.

It never was- some people joined this thread thinking they had found “new information” and had aligned themselves with the now farcical sentencing hearing defence that pleaded that Molly was more sinned against than sinning - how they could have thought that considering she bashed her husbands brains out with a brick and a bat is anyone’s guess but hey ho, it takes all sorts

Tom did work in the FBI.

Its seems the prosecution has caved in altogether. They oy thing they have offered is Molly is a liar and that Molly was infatuated with getting the kids. I mean all the arguments could have stemmed from her constantly nagging Jason about it. Not only that she got her brother and father to nag him too.

Staring January 1, 2021, a new law gave stepparents the ability to petition the court to become a legal guardian for their stepchildren.

This happened in 2015.

Anyway she did try for guardianship, it was denied and then denied at appeal.

Minor guardianship isn't the only way mentioned in the article for a stepparent to become a guardian.

The fact that she applied for guardianship and appealed when her initial application was unsuccessful does demonstrate that she was motivated to becoming the children's legal guardian.

she was motivated to becoming the children's legal guardian

Well yeah, that's not a secret. She did co-raise them for the majority of their life it would be strange if she didn't.

Anyway the reality of the situation is she was told by a family law attorney she had no legal rights to the children, a fact which was subsequently confirmed by the courts.

His first wife was strangled and he's gives evidence molly was strangled with no physical evidence

Not sure if this has been posted already. https://www.newstalk.com/news/molly-martens-claimed-sarah-corbett-was-her-biological-child-1522050.

co-raise them for the majority of their life

To the point they were removed.

Of course that is obvious.

Maybe at first she just believed herself that if Jason was out of the way, she stood a good chance of being granted guardianship. So she set about putting a plan in place about 6 months before she murdered him. Visits to hospitals and doctors with fake injuries supposedly caused by Jason attacking her. Speaking with lawyers about her chances of gaining guardianship. Taping a family argument she had orchestrated to take place in front of the children, etc. etc. When it looked like it was not going to work she waited until her parents were visiting and killed him outright herself, Daddy stepped in to take the rap for his darling deranged daughter.

We'll see what Jason's children say in their victim statement that they will now give themselves;

You are quite right here in all of what you say if you were talking about a rational and sane person. Molly is quite obviously a lunatic however

I’m surprised that more Irish medical professionals haven’t spoken out about the comments made that the autopsy report wasn’t up to “American standards”- this trial has put the Irish autopsy process under the spotlight and I think it deserves some discussion and for the medics to reassure the Irish public that it’s in safe hands.

As many have pointed out, there’s a back story to the death of Jason’s first wife- if improvements to autopsy reports could be made then let’s make them but not good to leave this hanging without some formal response from the medical council or whatever body oversees this area- just speaking as a citizen who knows very little of such things.

One presumes at this stage that the Fitzpatrick family will be alarmed at the evidence in this sentence hearing. The conclusion from medical witnesses for both state and defence agree that cause of death of Margaret was uncertain. I think any of us in their shoes would be asking questions and looking for some clarification & answers here. This can't be easy for them at all and let's hope the authorities here can assist them.

So you have nothing to show us. Grand.
