Dublin’s Central Criminal Court convicts 31-year-old Derek Boyd of the murder of Mark Carroll following a trial over an incident at Carroll’s home on 9 June 2024. Boyd, of Scribblestown Place in Finglas, Dublin 11, had pleaded not guilty to the charge. The court finds that Carroll was killed during an attack that is described as a determined, murderous assault after a dispute at the home. One outlet reports the attack as involving stabbing, while all sources agree on the date of the incident and the identity of the victim and defendant. The conviction follows the jury’s decision, ending Boyd’s trial for the murder. The reports do not include further details on sentencing or additional charges, beyond references in one account to a separate killing in a shooting accident, which is not described in detail in the other coverage.
