Nally to hear verdict in manslaughter case appeal
The Court of Criminal Appeal will issue its ruling this morning on an appeal by the 62-year-old farmer against his conviction for the manslaughter of John ‘Frog’ Ward at his home at Funshinaugh, Cross, Co Mayo, on October 14, 2004.
Nally is serving a six-year prison sentence for the crime after he was found guilty by a jury at the Central Criminal Court last year of the unlawful killing of Ward.
