On May 9th, A Deadly American Marriage premiered on Netflix, and everyone is saying the same thing about the Jason Corbett documentary.
The harrowing documentary has become one of the most-watched shows on Netflix this month.
The documentary is about the death of Irish businessman Jason Corbett in North Carolina in 2015.
The documentary includes interviews with Jason’s two children, Jack and Sarah, who took part to honour Jason.
“We are not alone in our experiences. We hope the documentary honours Jason’s memory while advocating for justice and ensuring that the voices of victims are heard, especially when the judicial system has failed them.”
It also includes exclusive interviews with the perpetrators, Molly and her father, Thomas Martens.
Since the documentary's release, responses and reactions have been trending around the case.
People who watched the documentary have been saying the same thing. They have expressed how “excruciating” the case is and paid tribute to Jason’s children.
A Deadly American Marriage. What a shocking documentary. Those kids are such a credit to their family.

A deadly American marraige on Netflix shows how evil and delusional people can be. Molly and her father are cut from the same cloth. Tried to ruin two children and their family. Killed their dad and wanted to claim the kids as theirs. Evil.

heaetbroken for the kids, as someone who lost their mother at a young age hearing Molly at the end claim to still be their mother and criticise the kids filled me with rage, it’s beyond insulting to give yourself that title, wish she was still locked up #ADeadlyAmericanMarriage

The documentary is now available on Netflix.
‘When Irish widower and father of two young children Jason Corbett found love again with his American au pair, Molly Martens, in 2008, their relationship seemed ripped from the pages of a storybook. The couple, along with Jason’s kids, Jack and Sarah, moved from Ireland to North Carolina to build a new life together.
‘But on August 2, 2015, their idyllic tale took a dark turn when Jason was killed in a violent altercation at home. The perpetrators? Molly and her father, Thomas Martens — a former FBI agent.’
The documentary will shed light on the many questions that have lingered following the events of that night.
