About this episode

The episode discusses the ongoing inquest into the death of Noah Donohoe, highlighting expert testimony and public sentiment regarding the investigation.

The jury at the inquest on the death of Noah Donohoe has now heard an 11th week of evidence. Noah had been missing for six days after leaving his home in south Belfast before his body was discovered in a north Belfast culvert. On Monday, an expert witness said it is likely that the 14-year-old died close to midnight on the day he went missing, as the tide rose in the culvert. A post-mortem examination found the cause of death was likely to be drowning. On Thursday, the jury heard members of the public present at the search ‘were angry at police’ as ‘conspiracy theories’ were ‘floating about’.  Liam Tunney is covering the inquest for the Belfast Telegraph.      Hosted on Acast.
