The inquest into the death of Noah Donohoe is adjourned until later in the year after the jury held an extended period of deliberations. Reporting states that jurors began discussions after being sent out on Tuesday to consider their verdict, following directions on what they must address, including “what police knew, when they knew it and what they did in response.” The inquest continued into the early hours, with the jury sitting until around 01:00 on Friday and deliberating for almost 25 hours. Jurors comprised eight men and two women. However, the jury cannot reach a unanimous verdict, leading to an adjournment. The court is scheduled to resume at a later date, with coverage indicating it will reconvene in at least August or September. No final verdict is delivered at this sitting. The inquest remains ongoing, with the next stage of deliberations to take place when the proceedings restart.
