Accused knew victim was raped - Court told
Shortly after an ambulance arrived at the scene where a 22 year-old woman was found lying in dense undergrowth in a park in Co Cork an 18-year-old local man told three of his neighbours the woman had been "beaten and raped".
At the Central Criminal Court today the three individuals told a murder trial jury that they recalled meeting the young man at Inishmore Square, Ballincollig after 8pm on the night Rachel Kiely was found dead in a nearby park.
