The accused has pleaded not guilty to the murder of Cameron Reilly in 2018.

Image: Alamy Stock Photo A WITNESS HAS described to the Central Criminal Court the moment he found the dead body of a teenager while taking his dogs for a morning walk.

Shiels said the deceased was lying on his back and there was “discolouring and bruising” on the right-hand side of the face, neck and throat. In response to cross examination from defence counsel, Michael Bowman SC, Lynch confirmed that the “scuffs or scrape marks” on the deceased’s chin suggested there had been contact with a hard surface, and the marks were not something that would have been caused by clothing.

McGuinness gave evidence that several people were drinking. She said she left around 12.10, and Mr Reilly gave her a hug and a kiss. She said she did not see Mr Reilly again after that. He said everyone left the field at the same time, with some of them then going to a local takeaway, including Mr Reilly.
