'I can’t...describe the feeling of looking at the lifeless body of my beloved son,' mother tells court

The mother of a Clare man who was stabbed in the back during a row previously lost her daughter in a car crash and finds that life is now “a constant struggle with only memories to sustain” her, the Central Criminal Court has heard.

“I can’t find words to describe the feeling of looking at the lifeless body of my beloved son - my last child - on that trolley. I get up in the morning’s and I see my neighbours’ children going in and out of their houses and realise my own children won’t be coming back,” Bridget Haugh told the court today.
