1
00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 1: Hey, there are folks. It is Wednesday, August thirteenth. It

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: has been a little over a week now since we

3
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 1: heard about that mon talk mystery, but we still don't

4
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 1: know if it's a murder mystery. As the questions continue

5
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: to pile up and answers robes are few and far between,

6
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: welcome everybody to this episode of Amy and TJ. We

7
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: should say off the bat, look, there are so few

8
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: official answers robes that there's so much speculation and kind

9
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: of salacious headlines out there that we are absolutely going

10
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 1: to stay away from. But there's very little officially coming

11
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: from authorities on this.

12
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:41,599
Speaker 2: I think it's fair to say that the mystery has

13
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 2: deepened because when authorities don't come out and say anything publicly,

14
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:50,239
Speaker 2: and yes, it's been a week and a day actually

15
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 2: since she passed, and the fact that there is still

16
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 2: no determined cause of death, they haven't ruled out foul play.

17
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 2: What happens is everyone else starts filling the void. When

18
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 2: you have a vacuum of information, people just start putting

19
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,399
Speaker 2: things together that may or may not be true. And

20
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 2: that's the hard part. When you have this death, this

21
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 2: highly unusual death in a part of the world where

22
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 2: it doesn't typically happen. Add to the fact that she's beautiful,

23
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 2: she was in the fashion industry. She was found on

24
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 2: a yacht away from her boyfriend. Reportedly, it's creates all

25
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 2: of these rumors, and it's sad because there is already

26
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 2: this tragedy, and I feel for her family as people speculate,

27
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 2: almost for sport, about what may have happened to her,

28
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 2: what that must do to their mourning.

29
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't realize you just told me this

30
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: before we started recording. You said, wow, people are mean.

31
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: Some of the comments here like what are they? Why

32
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: are you going after the girl that's dead? And I

33
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: didn't put it together until you said it. But there's

34
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: a lot of that folks floating around. Please try to

35
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: stay away from it, and please don't participate in it,

36
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: because this is a young woman who died far too soon,

37
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: thirty three years old, and a reminder who this is

38
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: Martha and Martha nolan o'slaterra fashion designer lives in New

39
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: York but from Ireland originally, but found overnight Monday into

40
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 1: Tuesday on a yacht, found unconscious, non responsive. But I

41
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: guess then Robes they told us. Of course, there was

42
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: no evidence of any violence to her body. But then

43
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: some of the details were being reported about witnesses and

44
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: what they saw and heard that night.

45
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 2: Yes, so some they're being called good Mariitans. But folks

46
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 2: nearby on a boat there in the marina said that

47
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 2: they heard yelling, they saw a man. There are reports

48
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 2: about what that man may or may not have been wearing,

49
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 2: saying basically asking for help, throwing sunscreen or throwing other

50
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: items onto boats to try and wake people up. Because

51
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 2: this was around yes, midnight, Tuesday morning, early and when

52
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 2: one of those good Smaritans they said they were trying

53
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 2: to perform CPR on her, but it was far too

54
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: late at that point by the time paramedics arrived on

55
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 2: the scene.

56
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: So and again a reminder folks of where we're talking about.

57
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: This is one of the most exclusive areas of all

58
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: the Northeast, fair to say, but this is Montalk at

59
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: the very very tip of Long Island, essentially the very

60
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: tip of the United States to a certain degree. But

61
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: you hear about the Hamptons all the time, people going

62
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 1: to the Hamptons. Well, this is a part of the

63
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,839
Speaker 1: Hamptons at the far east end right there at the tip.

64
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: You could be standing on the tip of Montague and

65
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: have pretty much ocean almost surrounding you because of where

66
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: you are. It's a beautiful area, exclusive, celebrity written, but

67
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: very much family centered and as a surfer town as well.

68
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: It really is a cool spot.

69
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we've talked about this last week when this

70
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 2: news came. We had been in Montalk for that entire

71
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: week when this mystery death occurred, and so it certainly

72
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 2: was the talk of the town, the talk of the Hamptons,

73
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 2: and the talk of Montalk. In there. There was real

74
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 2: concern that there could be a murderer on the loose

75
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: and that has not been ruled out. And because police

76
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 2: haven't said much and they haven't given any actual information

77
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 2: about what happened to her, how it happened to her,

78
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 2: people again just start talking. And these rumors can be

79
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 2: vicious and they can be false, and they can be misleading.

80
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 1: But the latest we can give you, But there hasn't

81
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: been a whole lot. But we did good word at

82
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: least from her family. There was a death announcement we'll

83
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: share with you here in just a moment, but the

84
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: official death announcement that was posted said that funeral arrangements

85
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: are set to be announced this week. We did hear

86
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: from our business partner. We'll share what he wrote as

87
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: well the details about the boyfriend. We will tell you

88
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 1: who he is and we can get that information from

89
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: her actual social media pages, so we do know this

90
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:55,159
Speaker 1: isn't speculation. This is someone she was dating. And also

91
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 1: just a reminder here of folks we talk about the

92
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: cause of death robes. Yes, they said no evidence of

93
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: violent her body, so we must wait now. But these

94
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: toxicology reports can take months.

95
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,159
Speaker 2: Yes, it could take up to three months. Several outlets

96
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 2: are reporting, but then you can read from other outlets

97
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 2: saying that because of the extensive public interest in this

98
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: story and the concern that perhaps for folks who live

99
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 2: or vacation in that area, that there could be if

100
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: there were a foul play, that would be a very

101
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 2: important information for folks who live and are around that area,

102
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 2: So they say it could be expedited. Could Some people

103
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 2: are even reporting that those reports could come out this

104
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 2: week or within the next couple of weeks. It does

105
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 2: take time, though, and we've seen that before in previous cases.

106
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 2: Regardless of just how public this story is or the

107
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,160
Speaker 2: level of interest in this story or even the concern

108
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 2: among folks in the community. Sometimes it just takes the

109
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 2: time that it takes period.

110
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: Even I think, can't we remember, even celebrity cases, very

111
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 1: high profile cases, we don't find out for white some

112
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 1: time when what exactly happened to folks. But the death

113
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: announcement here in rogues that the official one that was

114
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: posted in Ireland, where she's from, recognized her as being

115
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: from two places, from Ireland and from the Upper East

116
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 1: Side in Manhattan, New York. But it starts out that

117
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: she passed away unexpectedly on August fifth, twenty twenty five.

118
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: Beloved daughter of Elma, much loved sister of Jackie, treasured

119
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: granddaughter of Betty and Liam, cherished niece of John Michelle,

120
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: Barry and Mona, and adored partner of Nick. Exactly. So

121
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: they actually and I didn't catch to catch this earlier,

122
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 1: but they actually in the death.

123
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 2: Announcement acknowledging her boyfriend and some of the reports they

124
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 2: say that this was a serious relationship. He had gone

125
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 2: with her to Ireland over the Christmas holidays and her

126
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 2: family and friends were expecting an engagement announcement soon. She

127
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: had just recently. We're not sure if she had her

128
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 2: divorce had been finalized, but we do she was in

129
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 2: the process of being divorced or having been divorced through

130
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 2: the spring, So this was her boyfriend. If you look

131
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 2: on her TikTok account, you can see him all through

132
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: out there. So they were certainly a couple. And he

133
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 2: is not commenting right now. I'm sure I can't imagine

134
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 2: what he's going through right now, and to have it

135
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 2: be so publicly discussed has to just be an added

136
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 2: layer of trauma and discomfort in an already difficult time.

137
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: And I think we do know he was not with

138
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: her that evening, so obviously, so many times people immediately

139
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: want to speculate, speculate about the person that she might

140
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: have been dating. So I mean, but consider she has

141
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: an ex husband in the making and she has a

142
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: current boyfriend. Those are two people you'd start looking at.

143
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: One of them is thousands of miles away in Ireland

144
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: and the others not with her at all. So that

145
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 1: kind of as part of the mystery, eliminates what so

146
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: many people would be left to speculate about.

147
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 2: And so a lot of folks are speculating about who

148
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: the owner of that boat was, who she may have

149
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 2: been on that boat with earlier in the day. We

150
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 2: certainly heard from folks in the area who gave reports

151
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 2: to a local news outlet there on Long Island that

152
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 2: she was with a man and they had been seemingly

153
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 2: having a great time on the boat that day when

154
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 2: took another boat out into the ocean, came back and

155
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 2: then continued to party that evening on another boat, which

156
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 2: the name was.

157
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: Ripple. Correct, Ripple was the name of the boat. There

158
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: are some images out there of it as well. But

159
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: she was by all reports, and again first hand accounts

160
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: at least given to the local papers there in the

161
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: area where yeah, they were having a night. They'd seen

162
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: her come and go and seemed to be having a

163
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: good time, and they didn't report at all any issues

164
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: or anything looking out of place until things were and

165
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: until she apparently was already unconscious and this guy was

166
00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 1: trying to get help. How do you make sense of

167
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,199
Speaker 1: somebody's with her. He's running frantically trying to get help.

168
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 1: What that could what that could mean? He couldn't find

169
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: a cell phone? Did he not want to call ninety one? One?

170
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 1: What was going on?

171
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 2: And police? Really? This is what I know? What deepens

172
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 2: the mystery and creates the speculation is that police in

173
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 2: any official capacity, have not mentioned the owner of this boat.

174
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 2: They haven't mentioned this man who reportedly was with her,

175
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 2: and they haven't acknowledged any of the reports of the

176
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 2: state this man was in while he was trying to

177
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: get help from other people nearby to potentially revive Martha,

178
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 2: who was with him.

179
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: But they also say they're not looking for anybody. They

180
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 1: haven't said that once about this case. Look, I know

181
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: they need to keep things close to the close to

182
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: the vest a lot of time. That's fine. But we

183
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 1: were there in the v day and in the following

184
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: days when this was happening, and everywhere you went people

185
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: were buzzing up about this thing, and there are kids

186
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: running up and down the street. Look, I'm not suggesting

187
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 1: and they're nobody suggesting that there's an AX murder out

188
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: there running around in Montalk. But when you don't know

189
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: what's happening, what is out there, there are so few answers. Yeah,

190
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: I think we told the story last week. We were

191
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,680
Speaker 1: just standing around in our little group. A guy we

192
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: thought was out of earshot of us, just heard us

193
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: say something and he immediately came over and jumped into

194
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: the conversation.

195
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 2: Yes, this was certainly the talk of the town, and

196
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 2: it's going to continue to be until police actually decide

197
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 2: to give the public some very specific information. And in

198
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 2: the meantime, like I said, people are feeling the boy.

199
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: They're making all sorts of connections that may or may

200
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 2: not be true about the owner of the boat, about

201
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 2: why Martha might have been on that boat, and what

202
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: her friends are saying, what they've told her, whether or not.

203
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:58,599
Speaker 2: There are reports that she had a very a conversation

204
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 2: with her boyfriend, supposed within an hour or a couple

205
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 2: of minutes before that nine on one call was made.

206
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 2: So there are just all sorts of varying reports that

207
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 2: no one can actually put any truth to.

208
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: But we did hear from at least one of our friends,

209
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: a business partner, who did write a short, sweet, loving

210
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: tribute to his friend, who he says he laughed harder

211
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: with than anybody could ever understand.

212
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 2: Before we go to break, I have to tell you

213
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 2: about new leggings I've been living in lately. They're from

214
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 2: this brand called Tona and fun fact here they were

215
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 2: actually designed by the same visionary behind Lulu Lemon, So

216
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 2: from that alone, you already know they're going to be

217
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 2: pretty good. These leggings feel like a second skin. They're

218
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,960
Speaker 2: super flattering, super comfortable, and somehow still support it. I've

219
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 2: been wearing them on my morning runs and they've quickly

220
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 2: become my everyday lounging leggings too. And here's what makes

221
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 2: them even better. Every pair you buy helps fund a

222
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 2: mental health counseling session for a teen in need on

223

Speaker 2: a mission to end teen suicide and self harm, which

224
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 2: we think is so important and incredible. So we've partnered

228
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 2: welcome back to this edition of Amy and TJ. And

229
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 2: we are talking about the tragic death the Montalk mystery

230
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 2: really that still is hanging over a big cloud over

231
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 2: the Montalk in the Hampton's area, and certainly to the

232
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 2: families of Martha Nolan, who want to know what happened

233
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 2: to this bright, thirty three year old who had a

234
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 2: booming fashion design company. She had just posted recently that

235
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 2: she was excited. It was a dream come true that

236
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 2: her bikini line was finally being featured at a pop

237
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 2: store at a popular Hampton's resort, Gurney's there in Montak,

238
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 2: So it seemed like everything was going her way. She

239
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 2: had posted about her boyfriend. There was hope about potentially

240
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 2: the two of them getting engaged and getting married. There

241
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 2: just was a big, bright future for this young woman.

242
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 2: And to have her life cut so short on this

243
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 2: yacht mysteriously, at this very tony, expensive yacht club in

244
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 2: montak it just is troubling and head scratching for so

245
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 2: many folks are trying to figure out what happened to

246
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 2: Martha Nolan. We did get word from her business partner.

247
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 2: His name is Dylan Grace, and he posted a beautiful

248
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 2: tribute to Martha upon the news of her death. He wrote,

249
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 2: we dreamed big together, laughed harder than anyone else could understand,

250
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 2: and built so much from nothing. I'm truly blessed and

251
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 2: grateful to have had you in my life. Love you

252
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,199
Speaker 2: so much, mar Fly High girl.

253
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it's you can't imagine that she has a

254
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 1: friend group that she built up here. But like the

255
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 1: death announcement said, it did acknowledge the people she will

256
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,839
Speaker 1: be missed by and it set her extended family relatives

257
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: and her large circle of friends in Ireland and the US.

258
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: But to have such a it's a sudden death, and

259
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: the circumstances make it all most shocking. This stuff just

260
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: doesn't happen in Montalk. Mysteries like this don't happen necessarily

261
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 1: a montalk. But we don't know if it's a murder

262
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: mystery or not. We don't have any reason to believe

263
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: it right.

264
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 2: There's no reason other than to Notably, the police have

265
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 2: not ruled out foul play. They have said that the

266
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 2: initial autopsy did not show any signs of violence, but

267
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 2: at the same time they have not ruled out foul play,

268
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: and that is an important distinction because once they do that,

269
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 2: then yes, it can just be about perhaps what happened,

270
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: how a warning perhaps to other folks about what she

271
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 2: could have done differently. But certainly until they rule out

272
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 2: foul play, speculation will continue.

273
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: And I keep saying, I don't know if it's a mystery.

274
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a murder mystery. But there's

275
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 1: negligence involved, it doesn't have to be a murder necessarily.

276
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: Did she get the help she needed with somebody nearby

277
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: and saw her in distress, and still didn't call nine

278
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: to one one, right because the nine one Why wouldn't

279
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 1: the nine to one one call come in from the

280
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: person who's right next to her.

281
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 2: That's where a lot of folks are questioning. That's a

282
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 2: fair question what could have happened. Also, we all know

283
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 2: that criminal charges are filed against folks who provide certain

284
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 2: substances that lead to a death, So we don't know

285
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 2: if that could possibly be a part of this investigation

286
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 2: as well.

287
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: That's key. Why if I am next to you, if

288
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: you are aware enough that I'm in trouble that you

289
00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: go running for help, why isn't your first thought.

290
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 2: Huh, to pick up your phone and call nine one one?

291
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 2: Why isn't your first thought to start performing CPR on

292
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 2: the person next to you who was clearly in distress.

293
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 2: Those are really important and fair questions.

294
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, But this, like you said, roll, the

295
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: more days go by, the more this mystery will deepen.

296
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: We will keep an eye on it. It's still very

297
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: much being talked about. I don't know, frankly how in

298
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: other parts of the country, but here, certainly in this area,

299
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 1: for good reason. It certainly stays in the headlines.

300
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 2: It certainly doesn't, you know, And it is said, I

301
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 2: do love that they put that she was both from

302
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 2: Ireland and from the Upper East Side because I was

303
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 2: going through her TikTok. It always just makes it so

304
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 2: much more personal. She is alive, and she's real, and

305
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 2: she's not just this headline. She's not just this name

306
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 2: or this body that was found. She was a real

307
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 2: human who had hopes and dreams. And in some of

308
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 2: these tiktoks that she put up, she said New Yorker nowhere,

309
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 2: and she had songs just celebrating. She was so happy

310
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,120
Speaker 2: to be here in this country, to be pursuing her

311
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 2: dream and she was starting off. For anyone who's in

312
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 2: a period of transition from relationships knows that it's kind

313
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 2: of a new start of fresh starts. So it seemed

314
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 2: as if her life was coming back together, not that

315
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 2: it ever fell apart, but things were coming together. And

316
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 2: that's just it's sad when anyone's life is cut short,

317
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 2: but certainly when you see somebody who's been through some

318
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 2: stuff and has been building herself back up, and as

319
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 2: her business partner Dylan said, started from nothing from zero

320
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 2: and built this business up to the point where she

321
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 2: was being featured at a very expensive and well regarded

322
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 2: resort in montc That's a big deal. So it's just

323
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 2: incredibly sad and tragic that this happened, and we hope

324
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 2: we can get some answers. I know her family and

325
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 2: certainly her boyfriend and those who loved her are knocking

326
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,159
Speaker 2: down the doors. I'm sure of police departments asking and

327
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 2: begging for answers about what may have happened to Martha Nolan.

328
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,719
Speaker 1: We'll keep it on it, folks. We appreciate you as

329
