In a court report on the conviction for manslaughter of Galway man Edward Griffin published on this website and in other media on May 5, it was reported that Mary Kilcommins, a witness in the case, was “the mother of one of Griffin’s children”.

A Galway father-of-four, who beat a Dublin criminal to death and stored his body in a freezer for five years, will be sentenced on Friday at the Central Criminal Court.
