The convicted murderer Molly Martens-Corbett, has had four years added into her current prison sentence.
Mrs Martens-Corbett who was convicted for the murder of her Irish husband Jason Corbett, has been given the longer sentence after she breached a number of rules whilst serving her current sentence.
In a statement released on Wednesday, the North Carolina Department of Public Safety confirmed that Mrs Martens-Corbett will not be eligible for parole until March 8th 2041.
Mrs Martens-Corbett and her father Tom Martens were convicted of the murder of Limerick native Mr Corbett last year.
