00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:04,080

Speaker 2: was forcing her to hide the body, and pointed to

23
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 2: a locked bedroom. Officers detected a strong smell of decomp

24
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: coming from that locked room. Upon forcing the door open,

25
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 2: they found the room mostly empty except for a large

26
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 2: cardboard box in the middle of the floor, surrounded by

00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 2: hundreds of dead flies. Inside the box, an officer discovered

28
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: the body of a baby in the advanced state of decay.

29
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: An autopsy later indicated the baby had a skull fracture

30
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 2: consistent with blunt force trauma. Brothers allegedly informed officers that

31
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 2: her boyfriend was responsible for the child's death and had

32
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: threatened her her against reporting the incident. She indicated that

33
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 2: he through the baby, although police could not find any

34
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 2: evidence of a man living at the apartment. The apartment

35
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 2: was notably devoid of any furniture, with only an air

36
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 2: mattress and a television in one room, while the child's

37
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 2: body was found in a box in the other. The

38
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 2: complaint noted that the infant was so decomposed the baby

39
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 2: was unrecognizable, with body fluids seeping from the box. Taken

40
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,279
Speaker 2: into custody, Brother's accounts became increasingly bizarre. During her interrogation,

41
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 2: she reportedly claimed I was told I wasn't in trouble

42
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 2: and insisted I had no control over how she died.

43
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 2: She described being raped and forced to harm her child,

44
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: alleging that multiple people were entering her apartment to assault

45
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 2: her and steal from her. I'm going to be exonerated,

46
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 2: Brothers asserted, believing that her situation might appear incriminating but

47
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 2: would ultimately lead to her release. Throughout the police interviews,

48
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 2: she frequently covered her mouth as if trying to suppress

49
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 2: her words, and at one point she expressed regret, saying God,

50
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 2: oh God, we effed up today, followed by making barking sounds.

51
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 2: Brothers also spoke directly to the detectives, asserting, you guys

52
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 2: already know I did not kill my child right, and

53
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 2: indicated that her statements could help her plead insanity. Currently,

54
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 2: Brothers is being held on a fifty thousand dollars bond

55
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,359

85
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 5: a proposal was a strong possibility in the near future.

86
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 4: While separating from their last fashion venture, Out East Sunglasses,

87
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 4: business partners, Martha Nolan and Dylan Grace, were slapped with

88
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 4: a lawsuit leedging they essentially destroyed the company. Nolan, once

89
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 4: the CMO for out East, was accused of changing the

90
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 4: owner's passwords to lock them out of the business's bank

91
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 4: account while she drained thirty four thousand dollars from it.

Speaker 4: The owners also accused Nolan and Grace of stealing their

93
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 4: entire inventory. The duo denied all of the allegations, and

94
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 4: the case was settled outside of court. Two months later,

95
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 4: Martha Nolan's family has traveled to New York to bring

96
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 4: the thirty three year old Fashion Easta's body home. Law

97
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 4: enforcement has told them a final post mortem report will

98
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 4: take at least three months. The heartbroken family hoping a

99
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 4: second look may provide answers on a more expedited timeline.

100
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 5: Martha Nolan's mother, Elma, is shocked when detectives question if

101
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,400

102
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 5: Alma Nolan says Martha was perfectly healthy and she spoke

103
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 5: with her daughter on a daily basis. There's no way

104
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 5: she could have hidden such a serious diagnosis. Officers did

105
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 5: not reveal where they heard that Martha was battling cancer.

106
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 5: Her family left wondering why anyone would say that.

107
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 7: Though Martha was dating Nick to Rubio at the time

108
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 7: of her death, she was still in the process of

109
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 7: divorcing ex Sam Ryan. The couple married in Utah in

110
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 7: twenty twenty, but were still working through an uncontested divorce.

111
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 7: The last filings in the case made in April. Ryan's

112
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 7: attorney filed notice of Martha's death with the court to

113
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 7: halt the final divorce judgment.

114
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 5: Since indicating that Nolan's autopsy did not reveal any signs

115
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,359
Speaker 5: of a violent death. Police have largely remained mum on

116
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 5: the investigation. Retired NYPD Sergeant Joseph Jackalone warns against ruling

117
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 5: out foul play too early in an investigation, commenting every

118
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 5: death should be treated as a homicide until the scene

119
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 5: investigation is concluded. Officers have conferred with the medical examiner

120
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 5: and received back all necessary reports. Jack Alone says that

121
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 5: should be standard procedure in every investigation. Though her cause

122
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 5: of death is still undetermined, Martha Nolan has been laid

123
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 5: to rest in her hometown. Family and friends gathered at

124
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 5: the Cathedral of the Assumption to remember Martha and say

125
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 5: their final goodbyes before she was buried at Saint Mary's Cemetery.

126
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 5: Martha loved the life she built for herself in the

127
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 5: Big Apple, but frequently posted about the beautiful countryside on

128
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 5: her visits home to Carlow, the tiny Irish town about

129
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 5: fifty miles from Dublin where Martha grew up.

00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 4: A Washington teenager confronts her parents in court after surviving

131
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 4: a violent assault outside her high school in what authorities

132
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 4: say was an attempted honor killing. Fatima Ali stood before

133
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 4: a Thurston County judge and addressed her father Istana and

134
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 4: her mother, Zara Ali as they were sentenced for the

135
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 4: October twenty twenty four attack. Can you call yourself father?

136
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 3: You trying to kill me?

137
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 7: My dad tried to kill me with his own hands.

138
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 5: Do you have no luck for me?

139
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 4: Asan was sentenced to twenty months in prison, Zara received

140
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 4: just under one year. The judges also issued a ten

141
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 4: year no contact order between Issana and his daughter. The

142
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 4: attack happened in a school parking lot near Timberline High

143
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 4: School in Lacey. Fatima was seventeen. Her parents had tracked

144
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 4: her down after she ran away. Asan punched her boyfriend

145
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 4: Isaiah in the face, then put Fatima in a chokehole.

146
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 4: Witnesses said she passed out students and parents, kicking and

147
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 4: punching his song until he let go. Outside court, Fatima

148
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 4: spoke to Komo.

149
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 5: I never got the help I needed until this really happened.

150
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 5: I had to really get fresh, get choked for me

151
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 5: to get help.

152
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 4: I didn't want that, but that's the only way I

153
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 4: got help. Prosecutors were barred from mentioning claims about an

154
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 4: arranged marriage or honor based violence. During the trial from

155
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 4: the bench, Judge Christine Schaller said Fatima would have likely

156
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 4: died if no one stepped in. The Daily Mail reports,

157
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 4: the jury saw video of the chokehold and heard witness

158
