Court reserves judgement in murder appeal case
The Court of Criminal Appeal has today reserved judgment in the application of a Dublin man for leave to appeal against his conviction for killing a taxi driver by stabbing him more than 40 times in full view of his girlfriend and young son.
In March last year, a jury found twenty-four year old Carlos Byrne guilty by unanimous verdict of murdering Mark Smyth (aged 31) in a frenzied knife attack at the Fortlawn Estate in Blanchardstown on March 18, 2008.
