Judge says deaf killer may avoid prison term
Last month a Dublin Circuit Criminal Court jury found Edward Connors, aged 30, guilty following an eight-day manslaughter trial. Yesterday morning, he also admitted injuring, threatening, or intimidating two people with a syringe in separate incidents.
Eoghan Dudley, 28, died almost instantly from “catastrophic and traumatic injuries” after going under the left rear wheel of the bus on Dawson St during rush-hour traffic. Both men were heroin users at the time and both had the drug in their system at the time of the death.
