More than a year after fashion designer Martha Nolan-O’Slatarra<\/strong> was found dead aboard a yacht in Montauk … disturbing new details are emerging about the condition she was in when first responders arrived.<\/p>\n

According to newly revealed medical records obtained by the New York Post<\/strong><\/a>, EMTs found the 33-year-old cold to the touch with dried blood around her mouth, chest and head … and additional blood on the floor near her body.<\/p>\n

Martha was found unresponsive aboard the yacht at the Montauk Yacht Club around midnight on August 5, 2025. Good Samaritans and first responders attempted CPR … but she was pronounced dead at the scene.<\/p>\n

The Montauk Fire Department patient care report says Martha’s nail beds were purple … with slight purpling around her lips. Despite the blood, EMTs noted there was no active bleeding or obvious source of trauma … though one responder believed some of it may have come from the back of her head.<\/p>\n

The report also mentions an unidentified man who told EMTs he’d been in bed with Martha and called 911 when he couldn’t wake her. Boat owner Christopher Durnan<\/strong> is the only person previously confirmed to have been with Martha before she was found.<\/p>\n

Durnan was reportedly seen running naked down the dock looking for help. His lawyers have said he stripped because Martha had vomited on him … but the newly revealed EMT report does not mention any vomit at the scene.<\/p>\n

\"TMZ\"<\/p>\n

The records come as Martha’s family has filed a $50 million wrongful death action accusing Durnan of assault and negligence.<\/p>\n

Durnan has not been charged with a crime … and the investigation into Martha’s death remains ongoing.<\/p>\n
