Press apologies fail to assuage Lawlor family's anger

A son of the former Fianna Fáil TD Liam Lawlor today said the apologies printed in some Sunday newspapers did not replace the gut-wrenching aspects of last week’s inaccurate reports of the death.

The controversial 61-year-old former TD was killed last weekend when the Mercedes car he was being driven in crashed into a concrete lamppost on a motorway outside Moscow.
