Prosecutor: Scully broke all rules by giving daughter too much sedative

The prosecutor in the trial of a doctor charged with the manslaughter of her profoundly disabled daughter has said Bernadette Scully broke all the rules by giving her child too much sedative.

However, her defence lawyer said there is a clear indication in the autopsy of a possibility of a terminal seizure.

The barristers were giving their closing speeches yesterday in the 58-year-old’s trial at the Central Criminal Court.
