Judges allow photo as evidence in Regency Hotel murder trial

Judges at the Special Criminal Court trial of Patrick Hutch, who is accused of the murder of David Byrne at the Regency Hotel almost two years ago, have ruled that key prosecution evidence identifying the accused is admissible.
The defence had objected to evidence that two detectives, Fergal O'Flaherty and Jonathan Brady, "immediately recognized" Mr Hutch as a man dressed as a woman and holding a gun in a photo that had been taken outside the hotel on the day of the fatal shooting there.
