Daughter 'saw murder accused with arm around victim's neck'
The 18 year-old daughter of the man accused of murdering 14 year-old Melissa Mahon has told a jury that she saw her father on a bed with the girl with his arm around her neck before he tied into a sleeping bag and threw her body into a river.
Samantha Conroy gave evidence at the Central Criminal Court via video link on the seventh day of the trial of Ronald McManus (44), also known as Ronnie Dunbar, of Rathbraughan Park, Sligo. He denies murdering Melissa in September 2006 and also denies threatening to kill Samantha.
