Brian Rossiter Inquiry Findings to be Released - McDowell

Brian Rossiter (14 at the time) was found unconscious in his cell on the morning of 11th September 2002, while in Garda custody in Clonmel. He was taken to Cork University Hospital and died two days later on 13th September 2002.

Michael McDowell agreed to set up a public sworn inquiry into Brian's death and arrest, following intense pressure from Brian's parents and their solicitor, Cian O'Carroll. The inquiry was conducted by a senior counsel, Hugh Hartnett.

Over 80 witnesses gave evidence to the inquiry which lasted over 80 days. Over 30 of these witnesses were serving or retired Gardai and approximately 15 of them were medical witnesses. The State Pathologist, Dr Marie Cassidy, also gave evidence to the hearing.

It is still unclear when the report will be published. Michael McDowell has said that he will release the report once he receives it, provided that there is no "extraordinary reason" why he shouldn't.
