    Devastated to hear that Lynsey Bennett (34) has passed away. She, like so many other brave women, brought the horror of the CervicalCheck scandal home to us all. In the end, all she cared about was securing her daughters’ future. She should have been able to watch them grow 💔

    A judge has refused to accept character references on behalf of a convicted rapist from Sligo unless those who wrote them are willing to come to court and take the stand. This would also open up the possibility of their testimony being cross-examined.

    🎥 Meet Aoife Farrelly… After watching her older brother Cian being jailed today for abusing her as a child, she bravely waived her anonymity in the hope that other survivors of intra-familial abuse would be inspired to come forward. She’s only 21. She is a warrior 💪

    Jozef Puska (31), with an address in Tullamore, Co Offaly, has left court in Garda custody after being charged with Ashling Murphy's murder. ⚠️The criminal proceedings are now live so please think before you tweet. Let's all let Lady Justice take it from here.

    9 years. 9.5 years. 10 years. Those were the jail terms handed down today to three Dublin men, who took turns raping a girl on Dollymount Strand in 2016. INCREDIBLY, their supporters roared “miscarriage of justice” afterwards. Thankfully, they were removed from the courtroom.

    So sad to hear of the death of Ana Kriégel’s loving Dad, Patrick 💔 He seemed like such a dignified, gentle soul with an enormous heart and he deserved to live forever after what he’s been through. Thoughts with Geraldine and his family. He’s with his angel once more…

    Bags packed and I’m homeward bound. Belfast - you have been a great home for the past nine weeks. I’ll be back in better circumstances soon. And to all those who have been so complimentary about our coverage, I have two words: Dead-on ✌️

    Ana Kriègel's mother, Geraldine, was in court today. Her father, Patrick, was a notable and poignant absence. He passed away in June 💔 Hopefully he and Ana can now truly rest in peace and I hope today's outcome brings Geraldine some comfort too. No more traumatic days in court🤞

    The Ana Kriègel murder trial was the most harrowing and challenging case I've ever covered, so to have my coverage of it recognised by @LawSocIreland with a Justice Media Award is a real honour. I am truly humbled. Congratulations to all the other winners at #JMA2020 ⚖️

    Pure and utter pandemonium in the Court of Appeal. Ten guards called to the courtroom after judges forced to leave again. Ammi Burke removed by four officers. Enoch Burke is refusing to leave. He is actually holding onto a bench with a Garda trying to reason with him.
