Satchwell murder trial hears evidence of HSE medical cards for Tina and husband Richard
Briefly

Richard Satchwell is on trial for the alleged murder of his wife, Tina Satchwell, whose partially skeletonized body was found after a Garda search. Satchwell claims he acted in self-defense during an attack with a wood chisel. His defense raises concerns over the medical records of both individuals, arguing discrepancies exist due to potential issues with the records not being fully transferred to the National Scheme Viewer system. The trial's proceedings, overseen by Mr. Justice Paul McDermott, are anticipated to conclude by early June 2023.
"The court was told that Richard Satchwell claims he acted in self-defense when his wife attacked him with a wood chisel on March 20, 2017."
"Mr Satchwell's defense raises questions about medical records, suggesting that they attended GPs under medical cards that may not be fully represented in the NSV system."
