It was also claimed Oliver Hayes, a part-time painter and decorator from Bandon, Co Cork, used Ms Corcoran’s bank cards to take €3,000 from ATMs and used the money to pay bills and go on a skiing holiday to Austria within days of killing his victim.
Hayes, aged 50, from Clancool Terrace, Bandon, Co Cork, has denied the murder of Ms Corcoran on a date between January 19 and January 21, 2009. His offer of a guilty plea to his victim’s manslaughter was not accepted by the DPP.
