Patrick Murphy told to leave gathering at Joseph Brosnan’s home but then returned with a knife and stabbed him
Sentencing Murphy to the mandatory term of life imprisonment, Mr Justice Paul Burns said the deceased was a “decent man” who had been “viciously” attacked. Shaun Brosnan described his son’s killer as a “coward” and said he hoped Murphy would spend “every second” of the rest of his life in jail. Mr Lisowski finished work at around 7.45am on May 22nd, 2022 and called to Mr Brosnan’s home at Abbey Court. The pair shared a few drinks and watched TV before Murphy, who had been visiting his daughter’s apartment across from Mr Brosnan’s, joined them at around 3pm.
Ambulance and gardaí attended the scene but Mr Brosnan died in his apartment lying on his sofa. The second stab wound penetrated the pericardial sac around his heart, which caused massive bleeding and resulted in him dying “fairly rapidly”, the court heard.
