OLIVER HAYES, who was jailed for life yesterday, showed a total lack of remorse for the woman he bludgeoned to death and he was given concurrent 10-year sentences for the five withdrawals he made from her bank as she lay dead at his home.

MURDER accused Oliver Hayes denied that he knew Bandon woman Anne Corcoran in reply to a Garda questionnaire circulated in the west Cork town following her disappearance in early 2009.

THERE was nothing unfortunate or accidental in the way Cork woman Anne Corcoran met her death, a jury at a murder trial heard yesterday.

A MURDER trial has heard that West Cork widow Anne Corcoran was abducted, beaten and robbed before her body was set on fire and later buried in a wood near Ballinspittle, Co Cork, last year.
