Guilty - Anderson brothers given life sentences for murder of Karol Kelly

Two brothers charged with the murder of Karol Kelly in Derry on March 4, 2018, have been found guilty of murder by the jury and sentenced to life imprisonment. 

Gary Anderson (25) and Sean Anderson (23) both of Grafton Street in Derry had denied the murder of Karol Kelly. 

A third defendant Michael Dunlop (21) of Fern Park in Derry was found not guilty of the murder but guilty of attempting to inflict GBH on Mr Kelly. 

Following the verdict Judge Philip Babington told the Andersons that there was only one sentence he could impose and that was one of life imprisonment. 

He said at a later date he would set a tariff to determine how long they will serve and for that he would seek reports.

Mr Dunlop will be sentenced on September 9.
