Kenneth Donohoe and Darren Murphy have pleaded not guilty to murdering Eamon Kelly at the Special Criminal Court; their trial was reported on 11 June 2021. The prosecution alleges a burning Lexus was connected to the fatal shooting.

A garda sergeant told the court that a black Lexus was burning in Stiles Court, Clontarf, after the shooting. The car was examined at the scene and then towed for further examination.

The prosecution opening said evidence would connect the Lexus more closely to the shooting. A detective said he had seen it in Tallaght two days before the killing; a witness said it had been parked there for two days before disappearing.
