Later, when she was given the opportunity to speak before Lee sentenced her, Corbett said, “I did not murder my husband. My father did not murder my husband. The events of Aug. 2 happened on a regular basis. The difference is that my father was there.”

She again repeated that she wished she had died so that her father would not be in court.

“The jury did not hear all the evidence,” she said, before collapsing in tears, as her attorneys, Walter Holton and Cheryl Andrews held her.

Thomas Martens did not say anything in court. He appeared stoic and showed little emotion.

Jack said in his statement that his father was always cheering him on in sports, school and life.

“I don’t have that from him anymore,” he said. “He won’t be there for me when I get married or have kids. He will miss everything.”

Jack said Jason Corbett won’t be there to give him advice or see him grow up.

“I can’t ever go to a movie or pass a ball without feeling bad because that’s what me and my dad did,” he said, adding Sarah also has had a hard time.
