A second man has been found not guilty of murder but guilty of manslaughter of a 29-year-old man during a row at an estate in Carrigaline, Co Cork, just after Christmas in 2022.

Ricardo Hoey (21) of Ardcarraig, Carrigaline, went on trial at a Central Criminal Court sitting in Cork earlier this month charged with the murder of Matt O’Neill (29) on December 28, 2022.
