Truck driver Richard Satchwell jailed for murdering wife Tina after her remains were found under stairs

  • Richard Satchwell was convicted of murdering his wife, Tina Satchwell, in March 2017 at their home in Youghal, County Cork.
  • Tina was reported missing shortly after the murder, but her remains were only discovered more than six years later hidden in a concealed area beneath the staircase at their residence following a police search.
  • During the nearly five-week trial at the Central Criminal Court, Satchwell changed his story multiple times and claimed Tina was violent, though no evidence supported this.
  • The jury of twelve deliberated just under ten hours before delivering a unanimous guilty verdict, after which the judge imposed a mandatory life sentence backdated to October 12, 2023.
  • Tina's family described the emotional toll and disrespect in how her body was buried in plastic beneath soil and concrete, while Satchwell intends to appeal the conviction.
