Court hears disposed chainsaw was stained and had meat on it which looked like dog meat

A man accused of impeding the investigation into the murder of Kenneth O'Brien told gardaí that the chainsaw he disposed of was stained and had a piece of brown meat on it, which he said looked like dog meat.

The murderer's son said he was giving a voluntary statement to gardaí because he wanted the O'Brien family to get justice and it was "barbaric" they would have to bury him in pieces.
