Son accused of murder 'reclusive'

The father of a young man accused of strangling his mother to death has told the Central Criminal Court that his son became very reclusive while in mid teens.

Giving evidence on the second day of the trial of Damien Donnan, aged 20, for the murder of his mother Jennifer, Mr Daniel Donnan said his son would sit all day in front of the TV, refuse to eat or wash and did not seem to care about himself.
