A man accused of murder was “looking for trouble” on the night in question, a witness said on the second day of the trial in Cork yesterday.

The woman accused of murdering a man in Bandon was found by gardaí with blood on her hands and feet and she told officers she had taken magic mushrooms, the jury was told yesterday.

A 37-year-old woman yesterday denied murdering a 27-year-old man whose strangled body with more than 60 wounds was found dead in the Bandon River in Nov 2011.

TWO people have been charged with the murder of a man in Bandon, Co Cork.

TWO years ago James Clarke made a decision many will find it hard to understand – he gave up life as a professional golfer for a new career pounding the beat as a garda.
