In a harrowing murder trial at the Central Criminal Court, evidence surfaced that Brandon Gavin, 22, searched for ‘prison sentence for murder in Ireland’ just hours before he allegedly stabbed 19-year-old Marius Mamaliga to death in Swords on February 26, 2023. Testimonies revealed Gavin communicated with a woman on Tinder shortly before the incident and had a tense exchange over drug debts with Mamaliga. While Gavin claims self-defense, the prosecution argues he intended to kill. The jury is set to hear closing arguments soon, as the case has captivated public attention.
