Jury in Mallow murder trial ask judge to explain law in relation to self-defence

The jury will resume their deliberations in the morning

Tyler Jackson (pictured) has denied the charge of murdering 24-year-old Conor Quinn at Bridge Street, Mallow, County Cork, on July 12, 2018.

The jury in the Mallow murder trial deliberated throughout the day on Wednesday — only returning to court to ask the judge to go over again the law in relation to self-defence.

Ms Justice Eileen Creedon addressed the eight men and four women of the jury at the Central Criminal Court sitting in Cork on legal issues related to self-defence. Later in the afternoon, Ms Justice Creedon sent the jurors home and asked them to return to resume their deliberations at 11am on Thursday.
