In February 2009, 14-year-old Amber Dubois disappeared while walking to school in Escondido, California. Her family searched tirelessly—without answers. A year later, 17-year-old Chelsea King went missing during her routine run in a nearby park. Was this a total coincidence that two young girls completely vanished? Or was there a serial killer to blame?

• Murder Without Justice: Jason Corbett

  When Irish father Jason Corbett relocated to North Carolina with his two children, it was meant to be a fresh chapter after the tragic loss of his first wife, Mags. He eventually married Molly Martens, an American woman hired to help care for his young children. But nearly a decade later, Jason’s life would end violently inside their North Carolina home—sparking an international investigation and a courtroom battle that has left many questions unanswered. In this episode, we look deeper into the years leading up to Jason’s death through the eyes of his daughter Sarah, now an adult, and his sister Tracey Corbett Lynch, who has long fought for answers. Tracey remembers troubling signs during the couple’s wedding visit to America, including Molly’s alleged behavior and inconsistencies in her personal story. Meanwhile, Sarah later came forward with unsettling memories from childhood—claims that challenge the public image of a loving stepmother and raise questions about control and manipulation inside the home. From conflicting narratives to transatlantic legal twists, we break down the facts, examine the claims, and explore why many still feel justice remains out of reach for Jason Corbett and his children. Please note: This episode contains discussions of domestic violence, mental health, and graphic content related to a violent murder. Listener discretion is advised. Thanks to our sponsors!
