Inquest into death of man believed to have killed young mother under fire

A SOLICITOR representing the man believed to have murdered a young mother of a two-year-old boy hit out at the delay in proceeding with his inquest.

Solicitor Michael Finucane told Dublin City Coroner’s Court that almost 15 months after Dwayne Foster died, they knew “absolutely nothing” about the circumstances of his death.

They did not even have an autopsy report on the medical cause of death and there was an obligation on the State to carry out an investigation.
