Jennie Poole's brother vows they will 'keep fighting' for delivery of domestic violence register

The heartbroken brother of Jennifer Poole has vowed to "keep fighting" for the introduction of a new domestic violence law in her name.

Jennie, 24, was a care worker and doting mum of two. She was stabbed to death at her apartment in Finglas in Dublin on April 12, 2021. Gavin Murphy, Jennie's ex-boyfriend, was convicted of her killing last year.

Jennie's brother Jason has previously called on the Government to introduce a Domestic Violence Register, or Jennifer's Law, which would make available information about anyone who has a conviction for domestic violence. He told Dublin Live this week that the domestic violence register "continues to face challenges" after concerns were raised over the legislation, and that they have had a meeting with Justice Minister Simon Harris.
