Mullany Trial Finally Begins

Ben and Catherine Mullany, both 31, married in 2008 and went to Antigua for their honeymoon. Only two weeks later both were shot at their hotel in Antigua. Two men will go on trial for shooting the couple. The couple's families will attend the trial, which is expected to take two months. The two men have multiple charges against them for three other murders. The case of couple Mullany will take place first, together with the case of Mrs. Walker. The other two cases will begin at a later time. A fund was set up for the Mullany's by their families - it is an assistance for those studying medicine as well as physiotherapy.

It is terrible to hear that this couple was shot just after their honeymoon, but I think it would have been more sorrowful if one of them survived, feeling guilty the rest of his/her life. It is also a really good thing that the trial will finally begin, because according to the families it has been delayed for several times and now it is actually going to happen. In remembrance of the couple the families set up a fund to support students studying the same as the Mullany's. I think this is a really good thing, because now their legacy will go on forever.

  1. I think this is crazy. I really get the chills of this story! Really, can't you go on a honeymoon anymore! It's sick! That's what it is! I don't think the murderers should ever come out of jail again. It can always happen a second time. It's almost scary those creeps even walk around!
