ChargesMurder of David Byrne at the Regency Hotel, Dublin in 2016
OutcomeAdjourned to next Monday (October 10, 2022) - trial to resume but not expected to begin proper
The trial of Gerry 'The Monk' Hutch for the 2016 murder of David Byrne at the Regency Hotel was adjourned for one week after the defence indicated that 'very significant additional evidence' had resulted in a fundamental reappraisal of defence strategy. Jonathan Dowdall, 44, of Navan Road, Dublin, indicated his willingness to become a state witness. The court heard that additional issues around disclosure, privilege, and witness schedules may require discussion before trial begins.
