A jury has been sworn in to hear the trial of a woman accused of murdering her three children.

Deirdre Morley is accused of killing her two sons - aged nine and seven - and her three-year-old daughter at their home at Parson’s Court, Newcastle, Co Dublin last year.

The 44-year-old pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity when the charges were put to her today.
