Cork child-neglect trial given priority as many others delayed due to Covid-19

A child neglect trial where a four-year-old boy and his one-and-a-half-year-old sister were described as being in a "horrific" condition, is to be given priority as very few trials proceed in the present scaled-down court operations.
The part-heard trial was adjourned at Cork District Court just before the severe national restrictions came into effect.
