A Dublin man has signed a guilty plea to a charge of killing his sister Sandra Boyd. Ms Boyd, a 36-year-old mother of five, was fatally wounded in a suspected accidental shooting incident at her house in Dublin last March

Ms Boyd, a 36-year-old mother of five, was fatally wounded in a suspected accidental shooting incident at her house in Collins Place, Finglas, Dublin, shortly before 9pm on 19 March.

Her younger brother Derek Boyd, 27, also from Collins Place, was initially charged with unlawful possession or control of five rounds of 9mm Luger calibre ammunition and a Kahr CW9 semi-automatic pistol at his sister's home address. In June, Detective Sergeant Damien Mangan told the court:"It's a complex case, there will be a substantial file submitted to the DPP on this matter, and we are asking for further, more serious charges."Following an adjournment, the case resumed again at Cloverhill District Court, where the accused signed a guilty plea. He was sent forward for sentencing at the Dublin Circuit Criminal Court on 7 October.

South Dublin County Council ordered to reverse ban on developing data centresDecision to make data centres a ‘not permitted’ use in the new county development plan breached national and regional policy, says Minister This is a horrific breach of public trust and a terrible idea. Future Data Centers, if any, at the very least must be required to provide a large percentage of their power via on site or financed/built renewables. And contribute to local biodiversity and transport infrastructure. There should at the very least be huge capital contributions required to enable the development of appropriate infrastructure.
