latest first- High Court dismisses compensation challenge in unsolved Ballincollig murder Murder (unsolved; fatal shooting) · Co. Cork
Eddie Cummins Snr, a 31-year-old Irish man, was shot four times at close range outside his home in Ballincollig, Co Cork, on August 13, 2005, in an incident believed to have been drug-related. The car used by the shooter to flee was found burnt out some distance away, and nobody has ever been prosecuted or convicted of the murder. The victim's children, Eddie Cunningham Cummins and Erica Cunningham Cummins, applied to the Criminal Injuries Compensation Tribunal for compensation in 2011, but the tribunal rejected the applications in 2021 citing the time limit and the victim's previous convictions. The tribunal dismissed the children's internal appeal in July 2022. In March 2024, the High Court dismissed the children's judicial review challenge to the tribunal's refusal to compensate them.
