‘Our lives have a huge void’

THE victim impact statement on behalf of the Mangan family, was read in court by the late Joanne Mangan’s sister, Christina.

“Since October 16, 2007, to say we are heartbroken, even devastated, doesn’t seem to convey how we really feel since we lost Joanne.

“Our lives will never be the same, there is a pain and an emptiness that will never go away. Anyone who has lost a daughter or sibling would understand that pain we are feeling every day since last October.
