Cork man wins appeal against mother-of-three's murder as 'trial judge clearly misdirected jury'

A Cork man jailed for life last year for the murder of a mother-of-three in her home, which he then set on fire, has today won an appeal against his conviction and now faces a possible retrial.
Darren Murphy (aged 38), of Dan Desmond Villas, Passage West, Co Cork had pleaded not guilty to murdering Olivia Dunlea at Pembroke Crescent in Passage West on February 17, 2013, but admitted killing her.
