Cork murder trial adjourns for night
The jury in the trial of a 31-year-old Cork man accused of murdering one of his neighbours retired to a hotel last night after failing to bring back a majority verdict.
Mr Justice Paul Butler sent the six men and six women to a hotel to relax for the night after they had deliberated for more than three hours on whether or not Mr Keith O’Donovan (aged 31) is guilty of the murder of Mr Noel McCarthy (aged 28) at his home on Spriggs Road, Gurranabraher, Cork city on May 4, 2000.
