Kearney trial: Cable 'would not have taken victim's weight'

Tests have shown that a flex that was found around the deceased body of Siobhan Kearney could not have held her weight for more than five to seven seconds, the Central Criminal Court has heard today.

Brian Kearney (aged 50) with an address at Carnroe, Knocknashee, Goatstown, Dublin has pleaded not guilty to murdering his wife, Siobhan Kearney (aged 38) on February 28, 2006 – his 49th birthday.
