A Shannon native has been found guilty of the murder of a 59-year-old man in Cork, who he had assaulted and thrown into a rubbish chute.

32-year-old David O’Loughlin, who is a native of Clare but with an address at Garden City Apartments, North Main Street, Cork, had denied the murder of Liam Manley at that address in May of 2013.

But following a retrial of the case, a jury found him guilty of murder yesterday and he has been handed the mandatory life sentence.
