Inquest into killing of Cork family members halted in legal row

The police barrister and Torbay coroner Ian Arrow disagreed over whether the 10-man jury should be asked a question by Oisín’s mother, Elber Twomey, about whether the authorities could learn lessons from the incident where suicidal taxi driver Marek Wojciechowski deliberately drove head-on into the Meelin, Co Cork, family’s car last July.
She also wants to make a statement about how she has been affected by the tragedy, where Oisín and her unborn baby daughter, Elber Marie, died, and her husband Con, aged 39, was catastrophically injured leading to his death at Cork University Hospital in May of this year.
