The jury will continue to deliberate on Tuesday in a murder trial where the prosecution asked them to reflect on the accused woman’s threat that if she could not have her ex-husband nobody could and on the defence stressing the years of abuse she suffered at his hands.

Timmy Foley, aged 44, died at 12 Dan Corkery Place, Macroom, Co Cork, on October 8, 2018 after sustaining 28 stab wounds.
