Woman appears in court charged in connection with murder of Ballymun mum Lisa Thompson

A woman has been charged with impeding the arrest of the alleged “principal offender” in the killing of Lisa Thompson.

The mother-of-two was found dead in her Dublin home in May. A concerned neighbour raised the alarm after discovering the 52-year-old youth worker who had suffered stab injuries at her house in Sandyhill Gardens, Ballymun.

In July, Brian McHugh of Cairn Court, Poppintree, Ballymun, was charged with the murder of Ms Thompson and is awaiting trial. Yesterday morning Deirdre Arnold, 40, was arrested at her home in Briarfield Grove, Kilbarrack, Dublin.
