I’ll take a lie detector test, says missing Tina’s husband

The husband of missing woman Tina Satchwell says he will take a lie detector test when he feels up to it.

Richard Satchwell made his comments after confirming in two interviews yesterday that he was jailed more than a decade ago for social welfare fraud.

As search teams spent an eighth day scouring Mitchel’s Wood, Castlemartyr, Co Cork, for evidence in relation to the disappearance of his wife, Tina, 45, last March, detectives ruled out a potential sighting of her in Dublin in January, which emerged last week.
