Jozef Puska found guilty of the murder of Ashling Murphy | Newstalk

Jozef Puska has been found guilty of the murder of Ashling Murphy. The 33-year-old of Lynally Grove, Mucklagh, Co Offaly was mostly unmoved in the dock and had his head down as the verdict was delivered this afternoon. Friends and family of Ashling Murphy applauded as the Jury was dismissed by Mr Justice Tony Hunt. The jury of nine men and three women was sent out for deliberations yesterday afternoon; however, the jurors were sent home for the evening a short while later. They resumed deliberation this morning and reached their verdict shortly after lunchtime. Ashling’s Amy and boyfriend Ryan were in court alongside her parents Ray and Kathleen as the jury returned. Amy could be seen looking to the sky as the unanimous verdict was called out, while Kathleen held a framed photo of her daughter in her arms. Puska will now be handed the mandatory life sentence for murder. His sentence hearing is due to take place next week. #trial #ireland #ireland ________________________________________________________________________ 📱 Have you downloaded the Newstalk app? - Find the app in the Google Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thisisaim.newstalk&hl=en_IE&gl=US - Find the app via Apple: https://apps.apple.com/ie/app/newstalk-106-108-fm/id372643826 #️⃣ SUBSCRIBE to the Newstalk social channels: - YOUTUBE | youtube.com/@Newstalkfm - TWITTER | twitter.com/newstalkfm - INSTAGRAM | instagram.com/newstalkfm/ - FACEBOOK | facebook.com/newstalkfm - WEBSITE | https://www.newstalk.com/ 🎧 PODCAST - listen at your leisure: newstalk.com/podcasts - iTunes: search for Newstalk in your app! - Spotify: search for Newstalk for our latest pods and news - Or wherever you get your podcasts! 📱GET IN TOUCH WITH NEWSTALK - WhatsApp: get in touch on 0871400106
