Jury finds man guilty of "savage" murder of Dermot Byrne
Stage: Sentence
Finding: Found guilty
Outcome: Found guilty; She added: "Both his life and dignity were taken in an absolutely savage way that is unbearable to think about." Walsh's life sentence is insignificant compared to the "tragedy that arrived on our doorstep that day." Ms Justice Eileen Creedon sympathised with Mr Byrne's family and commended Shawna for making the statement.
