Catherine Nevin appeal bid dismissed

A bid by Catherine Nevin to take an appeal against her conviction for murdering her husband to the Supreme Court has been dismissed on the basis that it contains “absolutely no points of any merit whatsoever”.
In 2000 Nevin was jailed for life having been convicted of murdering her husband Tom Nevin at their pub, Jack White’s Inn, near Brittas Bay, Co Wicklow, on March 19, 1996. She also received a seven-year sentence for soliciting three men to kill her husband in 1989 and 1990.
