Woman on boyfriend murder charge | |
(about 1 hour later) | |
A 25-year-old woman has appeared in a County Fermanagh court charged with murdering her boyfriend. | |
The body of Garry Elliott, 19, was found in a house in Townhill Park, Irvinestown on Sunday night. He had been stabbed. | |
Kerri Cassidy from the same address appeared at Enniskillen Magistrates Court on Wednesday. | |
She spoke only to confirm her identity and that she understood the charges. Ms Cassidy was remanded in custody. | |
Security was tight outside the court as the accused arrived in the back of a police car. | |
As the charge was read out in court, relatives of both the victim and the accused broke down in tears. | |
They included the accused's mother, Geraldine Cassidy, a former Sinn Fein councillor and chair of Fermanagh District Council. | |
A bail application on behalf of the accused will be heard on Monday. |
