Judge instructs jury in trial of alleged getaway driver

The judge in the trial of a man alleged to be the getaway driver in a fatal shooting, has instructed the jury to find the accused guilty of murder if they are satisfied beyond reasonable doubt that he assisted the gunman.

“In this case, it is not in any fashion alleged that the accused man was the actual assassin. It's alleged that he lent material assistance to the actual assassin” Mr Justice Paul Carney told the jury on day eight of the trial.
