Mother of Man Charged With Murder of Limerick Woman Carrie Mullane Appears in Court

Carrie Mullane arrived in Enniskillen from Limerick on October 10 before disappearing, leading police to recover a body from Lough Erne on Monday, RTÉ reported.

The 39-year-old mother-of-four from Moyross had not been in contact with family or friends, prompting her family to report her missing to An Garda Síochána on October 25, according to the Limerick Leader.

Michael Lynch, 35, of Trasna Park in Enniskillen, appeared in court charged with murder and preventing the lawful burial of a corpse, the Irish Examiner reported.

Mother Appears in Court

Mary Lynch, of Windmill Heights in Enniskillen, appeared in Dungannon Magistrates Court charged with withholding information between October 10 and November 8, RTÉ reported.

She used a walking stick in the dock, confirmed her identity, and nodded when asked if she understood the charge.

A Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) detective sergeant told the court that police objected to bail because her supplied address was in the Republic of Ireland.

District Judge Francis Rafferty said that he was minded to grant bail but required an address in Northern Ireland, remanding her in custody until November 18, according to RTÉ, with subsequent reports noting a video-link appearance set for November 25, Limerick Leader noted.

Police Arrest Second Man in Murder Investigation

Police arrested a second man in connection with the investigation, who is scheduled to appear in Strabane Magistrates Court, RTÉ reported.

“charged with withholding information concerning an arrestable offence and encouraging or assisting in the commission of an offence, namely murder” a PSNI statement cited by RTÉ said of the 31-year-old man.

Meanwhile, officials are still working to formally identify the body recovered from Lough Erne, the Irish Examiner reported.

The family of Carrie Mullane-Noonan expressed their gratitude to the PSNI, Mayorstone Garda Station, and the Moyross community for their support, RIP.ie reported.

The accused woman is remanded in custody to appear again by video-link on November 25, Limerick Leader stated.
