Jury hears how body was disposed of in manslaughter trial

The dead body of a 23-year-old Cork woman was placed in a black plastic bag with stones and thrown off a bridge at Kinsale never to be seen again, a jury was told today on the opening day of a manslaughter trial.

Timothy Joseph O'Driscoll (aged 46) of New Street, Macroom, County Cork, today denied the unlawful killing of Michelle McCormick on July 20 1993 and he also denied two related charges.
