Robinson pays respects and says community united in grief

MEMORIES of the murdered honeymooner Michaela Harte have united people in grief, Northern Ireland First Minister Peter Robinson has said.

The DUP leader addressed representatives at Stormont as the legislature reconvened after its Christmas break and said the tragic death of the 27-year-old had captured public attention.

Mr Robinson said the young teacher had been a valued relative and friend to those who shared her life, but that their warm tributes meant many more people now felt they knew her.
