Appeal Court urged to overturn manslaughter retrial order
The only man convicted of the manslaughter of teenager Brian Murphy is prepared to go to the Supreme Court to prevent a retrial going ahead, a court heard today.
Dermot Laide, 23, from Castleblaney, Co Monaghan, had his four-year sentence for manslaughter overturned last February by the Court of Criminal Appeal after it found fault with the editing of statements in the original trial.
