Jury in Paudie Palmer trial sent home after failing to reach verdict

The judge has told the jury, who will return on Monday, that a majority 10-2 or 11-1 verdict would be acceptable

The late Paudie Palmer died on December 29, 2022.

The jury hearing the week-long trial of a Ukrainian motorist who denies dangerous driving causing the death of GAA broadcaster Paudie Palmer deliberated throughout Friday without reaching a verdict.
