Jury in trial of driver accused of causing death of broadcaster told to avoid 'amateur detective work'

GAA broadcaster Paudie Palmer died from traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries.

The jury in the trial of a Ukrainian national who denies dangerous driving causing the death of GAA broadcaster Paudie Palmer at Innishannon in 2022 were told by the presiding judge that they should not “engage in amateur detective work” as the case was adjourned for the weekend.

Judge Jonathan Dunphy gave this warning to the jury of seven women and five men at Cork Circuit Criminal Court on Friday as the case was adjourned until April 15.
