Psychiatric reports to be considered in Deirdre Morley case

 Deirdre Morley has been remanded to the Central Mental Hospital.

 A hearing in the case of Deirdre Morley, who smothered her three young children at their family home and was found not guilty of their murders by reason of insanity, has been adjourned until next week to allow time for lawyers to consider a psychiatric report.

The matter was due back before the court today, where it was expected a consultant forensic psychiatrist from the Central Mental Hospital (CMH) would be called by the State to report on Ms Morley's condition and make recommendations for her ongoing care.
