Judges reject appeal in body-in-boot case

The Court of Criminal appeal (CCA) has dismissed an appeal brought by a Scottish man against his conviction for the murder of 54-year-old Waterford mother of two Mary "Mamie" Walsh almost three years ago.

Last November at the Central Criminal Court Samuel Jennings (aged 61), originally from Scotland, with an address at Ashtown, Kilmacthomas, Co Waterford, pleaded not guilty to the murder of Ms Mary Walsh of Glendalligan, Kilrossanty, Co Waterford, on a date unknown between August 30th and September 1st, 2004.
