Dun Laoghaire baby inquest hears conflicting statements
The jury at the inquest into the death of a baby girl, found dead in Dublin in 1973, has heard a statement from Cynthia Owen's deceased mother, denying that she ever gave birth to a baby at their home.
Ms Owen claims that her mother stabbed her baby to death with a knitting needle and then dumped the body in a lane in Dun Laoghaire.
