Ted Cunningham: Denies money-laundering charges

THE jury in the trial of Ted Cunningham on money-laundering charges were sent home at 6.30pm yesterday as they had not reached a verdict. They will resume their deliberations today.

Judge Cornelius Murphy told the seven men and five women of the jury yesterday afternoon: “You, members of the jury, in assessing the evidence should have regard for what witnesses said and the demeanour of witnesses.

“Apply your own robust commonsense in deciding the issue. There are 10 separate counts. You must consider each count separately. We require from you 10 separate and distinct verdicts.
