Grand Jury to vet case against right-to-die preacher Exoo

A US preacher faces a preliminary extradition hearing today over his role in the assisted suicide of a Dublin woman.

A Grand Jury in Charleston, West Virginia, will hear evidence about right-to-die activist Rev George Exoo and his contacts with Rosemary Toole Gilhooley, who was found dead in her home in Donnybrook on January 26.

Two gardaí, who have travelled from Ireland for the hearing, may be called to give evidence, although they have been unable to interview Rev Exoo directly.
