Teen Accused in Postman’s Murder | Dublin News

A shocking murder case in north Cork has ended in conviction: a 20-year-old man, Alex Deady, was found guilty of killing postman Barry Daly with golf clubs during local celebrations in October 2025. After nearly 12 hours of deliberation, the jury rejected Deady’s manslaughter plea, which the prosecution refused to accept. Sentencing is postponed until July 20th, coinciding with his 17-year-old co-accused. Evidence included damning CCTV, forensic DNA linking the golf club to both victim and accused, and chilling statements from Deady. Victim impact statements are pending, and the judge praised the jury’s work amid over 30 witness testimonies. The case underscores the devastating cost of violence and the relentless pursuit of justice for grieving families.
