A JUDGE HAS noted it is “rather sad” that no one is to speak in court about the impact of the manslaughter of a 52-year-old man who was killed in his own home.
Mr Justice Tony Hunt asked if any member of the deceased’s family wished to make a victim impact statement in the case, to which counsel for the prosecution, Shane Costello SC replied that no members of the deceased’s family were present in court.Mr Justice Hunt said that the opportunity was still there for a victim impact statement to be made and remanded Lennon in custody to 17 April.
Counsel for Lee, Ronan Munro SC said that there was a psychiatric report on his client, but he said that she had missed a call from the probation service so there was no probation report.Mr Justice Hunt said that if someone is sent to the probation service by the court, it is up to them to ensure they attend.
