Weekly Roundup
Notes de l’épisode
This week’s Ireland Crimes and Mysteries Weekly Roundup begins in Waterford, with the funeral of Philip and Kim English and their sons, Callum and Jayden, and further arrests in the investigation into the arson attack on their home.
I also cover the latest coroner’s court hearing in Joe Deacy’s case, the conflicting medical evidence heard at Laura Marshall’s inquest, and developments in Julie Ann McIlwaine’s case following the overturning of her murder conviction.
There are sentencing updates in the cases of Paula Canty and Paul Connolly, the sentences imposed on Jeffrey Donaldson and George Gibney, and a prosecution over the breach of survivors’ anonymity.
Plus, a murder charge in Mark Cullen’s case, a renewed appeal from Kelly Lynch’s family, and the investigation into Paul O’Connor’s death in Mallow.
