Time stands still as model of decorum enjoys good hair day

TIME passes slowly in prison and the clocks seem to have come to a halt completely in Catherine Nevin’s cell.

The widow of Jack White’s publican Tom Nevin, appeared in state of suspended animation when she glided ghost-like into the Court of Criminal Appeal for her latest challenge to her conviction for his murder.

Her poise perfect, her manners unfailingly polite, she was the same model of decorum who fascinated and baffled in equal measure when she sat through her own trial like an interested observer 10 years ago.
