A woman accused of murdering Scarlett Faulkner is on trial, with testimony covering her statements about harming others and her actions toward the victim. One part of the evidence involves analysis of mobile phones connected to the investigation into Ms Faulkner’s death.

In court, the accused says she “would kill no woman over a man,” framing her position in relation to relationships. Separately, RTE reports she also tells another woman that she “never put a finger on” Faulkner, directly addressing allegations of direct violence.

The outlets differ mainly in what they lead with: some foreground the accused’s denial and characterisation of motives, while others foreground police or forensic steps such as mobile-phone examination. Across the reports provided, all coverage points to the murder trial and the accused’s claims during testimony, with mobile-device analysis mentioned in one account.
