A mother who killed her three children in their home has applied for release from the Central Mental Hospital after just three years.
The Irish Mirror has learned that Deirdre Morley, who was found not guilty by reason of insanity of the murders of her children Conor, 9, Darragh, 7, and three-year-old Carla has formally applied to be released under a community release scheme. And in an exclusive interview, the children’s heartbroken father Andrew has said he was “shocked” when he learned the news.
He said: “When I heard about it I was surprised. I would go so far as to say I was shocked.”
