Victim stabbed in neck on walkway between George’s Dock and Custom House Quay in January 2021

The plea of manslaughter was not accepted by the State and the trial is ongoing at the Central Criminal Court.

Dr Okkers explained that this artery branches into the external and internal carotid arteries, with the external supplying blood to the scalp and face and the internal supplying the right side of the brain. She said that the artery is 1.5cm beneath the surface of the skin. Counsel for the prosecution, Sean Guerin SC, asked her to confirm that the instrument used penetrated to a depth of 1.5cm and up to 6cm, but she could not be certain of the depth of the injury.

“I can’t say how deep the surgical intervention was,” she said. “If the side of the artery was transected, clearly it went in 1.5cm?” asked Mr O’Higgins. “At least,” replied Dr Okkers. “But after that, there are unknown quantities?” asked the defence. Dr Okkers confirmed this was correct. She said the blade “had to go in 1.5cm, perhaps more”.
