Man found guilty of murdering 90-year-old Waterford pensioner

A jury has convicted a man of murdering a 90-year-old retired farmer who was found beaten to death in his own home.

The panel of eight men and four women rejected 28-year-old Ross Outram's claim that he repeatedly struck Paddy Lyons in "self-defence" after the pensioner, who suffered from osteoporosis and only had the use of one arm, attacked him with a stick.
