The Irish Times says it is understood Judge Seán Gillane will pass the mandatory life sentence later on Tuesday. RTE says he imposed it.

Understood later on Tuesday, on The Irish Times, The Journal, and the Limerick Post, and imposed, on RTE, are not the same status. Forty-four bruises, and more than 40 injuries, are not the same count. Strangulation and smothering, and asphyxia and strangulation, are not the same cause. The 11-1 verdict is what those pages report. The life term RTE says the judge imposed is the mandatory sentence for murder.

The Irish Times, by David Raleigh, Tue Nov 10 2026 at 14:36, with no zone printed on that clock, reported a jury at the Central Criminal Court found Hasan Ali Gori guilty of the murder of his then-girlfriend's 89-year-old mother, Josephine "Josie" Ray. It says he is 52, a native of Chad, central Africa, with an address in Nenagh, Co Tipperary, that he showed no reaction when the verdict was read out shortly after 2pm on Tuesday afternoon, and that the jury returned a majority verdict of 11-1 after a three-week trial in Limerick. The Journal, by the same reporter, at 2.43pm on 10 Nov 2026, with no zone, prints the same ages, the same 11-1, the same three-week trial in Limerick, and the same shortly after 2pm. It says he is a native of Chad, Africa, and does not print central. Central Africa, on The Irish Times, and Africa, on The Journal, are not the same place line. 14:36 and 2.43pm are not the same clock. The Limerick Post, by David Raleigh, November 10, 2026, with no absolute clock, prints Hasan Ali Gori in the body and Hassan Ali Gori in the picture line. Hassan and Hasan are not the same spelling. That body says shortly after 2pm on Tuesday afternoon, an 11-1 verdict, and a three-week trial in Limerick. RTE, by Petula Martyn and Paschal Sheehy, on a courts story updated Tuesday, 10 Nov 2026, at 17:12, with no zone, reported he was convicted by a jury after a three-week trial at the Central Criminal Court in Co Limerick. It says the jury of nine men and three women retired on Wednesday of last week and, after deliberating for eight hours and 52 minutes over four days, returned this afternoon with a guilty verdict by a majority of 11/1, and that he remained impassive as the verdict was delivered and as his sentence was handed down. Nine men and three women, and eight hours and 52 minutes, are also on The Irish Times, The Journal, and the Limerick Post. Over four days, Wednesday of last week, and 11/1 with a slash, are the RTE courts story. They are not the count line on the other three pages. Shortly after 2pm, on those pages, and this afternoon, on RTE, are not the same clock. Showed no reaction when the verdict was read out, on The Irish Times, and remained impassive as the verdict was delivered and as the sentence was handed down, on RTE, are not the same sentence. Co Limerick, on RTE, and Limerick, on the other three, are not the same place line. The Irish Times says it is understood Judge Seán Gillane will pass the mandatory life sentence for murder later on Tuesday afternoon, after the court hears victim-impact statements. The Journal says it is understood Mr Justice Seán Gillane will pass that sentence later this afternoon. The Limerick Post says it is understood Justice Gillane will pass it later this afternoon. RTE says Mr Justice Sean Gillane imposed the mandatory life sentence after a victim impact statement was read, thanked the jury, and excused them from jury service for 10 years. Seán, on The Irish Times and The Journal, and Sean, on RTE, are not the same spelling. Understood he will pass the sentence later, on the pages filed at 14:36, at 2.43pm, and with no clock, and imposed, on the RTE page updated at 17:12, are not the same status. Ten years off jury service is RTE. It is not on the other three pages. A separate RTE story, by Petula Martyn, updated Tuesday, 10 Nov 2026, at 16:35, with no zone, says he was today found guilty and given the mandatory life sentence. That page does not print the judge's name in that sentence, and it does not print the victim-impact lines on the 17:12 courts story. Given, at 16:35, and imposed, with the judge's remarks, at 17:12, are not the same account of the sentence.

The Irish Times says state pathologist Dr Yvonne McCartney gave evidence that Josephine Ray died of strangulation and smothering, that she sustained two broken bones in her neck and 44 bruises to her head, neck, face, shoulders, chest, arms and legs, and that her arms were upright by her face when her body was found in her bed, in a front room at St Joseph's Park, Nenagh, on August 4th, 2024. The Journal prints great-grandmother, 4 August 2024, and the same 44. The Limerick Post prints August 4, 2024, and great grandmother as two words. Great-grandmother, on The Journal, and great grandmother, on The Irish Times and the Limerick Post, are not the same spelling. August 4th, 4 August, and August 4 are not the same date line. RTE's 17:12 story says a post-mortem examination revealed more than 40 injuries, including two broken bones in her neck and extensive bruising to her face, neck, arms and legs, and that she died of asphyxia and strangulation after she was attacked in her bed. It says gardaí and emergency services found her body on the afternoon of 4 August 2024 and that she was pronounced dead there a short time later. Forty-four, on the three Raleigh pages, and more than 40, on RTE, are not the same count. Strangulation and smothering, on those pages, and asphyxia and strangulation, on RTE, are not the same cause line. Shoulders, chest, and arms upright by her face are the Raleigh pages. They are not in that RTE injury list. Pronounced dead a short time later is RTE. It is not on The Irish Times verdict page. The Irish Times says Connolly argued it was significant that Gori's DNA was found on her right hand and underneath her fingernails, and it quotes him: "Unbeknownst to himself, Hasan Ali Gori left his calling card, his DNA under Josie's fingernails." The Journal and the Limerick Post print that quotation. RTE's 17:12 story says DNA samples taken from under her fingernails matched his DNA profile and that the forensic evidence was consistent with a close physical struggle. The right hand is The Irish Times, The Journal, and the Limerick Post. It is not the phrase on the RTE courts story. Close physical struggle is RTE. It is not on The Irish Times verdict page. The Irish Times says she rarely left her daughter Mary out of her sight because Mary has an intellectual disability and was described as a vulnerable adult, that Josephine Ray did not approve of the relationship, and that Gori had been living in a hostel before moving in. It says that on the night before the death neighbours reported seeing him headbutting Mary Ray and telling her he was sick of living with her mother, and that either he or Josephine Ray would have to leave. It says Connolly argued he was at risk of being evicted and of losing social welfare payments attached to a disability allowance being claimed by Mary Ray. The Journal and the Limerick Post print his quotation, "He'd struck lucky, he had a roof over his head, he had an attachment to the house, he was at risk of losing the roof over his head and losing the payment from the Department of Social Welfare." The Limerick Post prints department in lowercase. Department, on The Journal, and department, on the Limerick Post, are not the same capital. That quotation, and a euro amount, are not on The Irish Times verdict page. RTE's 17:12 story says she was indispensable to him because she provided a roof, a bed and €154 a week through her disability allowance, and that Tipperary County Council was closing in because he was not a registered tenant. €154, a bed, and not a registered tenant are that RTE story. They are not on The Irish Times verdict page. The Journal and the Limerick Post say Connolly suggested Gori was upset and annoyed at Josephine Ray using racist slurs, allegedly calling him a "black bastard" and hitting him with a fireside poker. Those lines are not on The Irish Times verdict page fetched here, and they are not on the RTE 17:12 courts story.

The defence case is not one sentence. The Irish Times says senior counsel Aidan Doyle told the jury, "If you think it's even possible that Mary did it, you have to acquit (Gori)." The Journal and the Limerick Post print that line. The Journal also prints his questions, "How do the guards (gardaí) know Mary Ray didn't do this? Why was she dropped from the investigation, you haven't heard from her?" The Limerick Post prints guards and then gardai, without the fada. Gardaí, on The Journal, and gardai, on the Limerick Post, are not the same spelling. RTE's 17:12 story says Doyle questioned how gardaí knew Mary Ray was not responsible and why she had been dropped from the investigation, and that he said the defence did not have to prove she murdered her mother. The "even possible" quotation is the Raleigh pages. It is not the sentence on the RTE courts story. The Journal and the Limerick Post say Doyle told the jury Mary Ray was possessive and jealous, that she had broken a toilet door because she suspected he was looking at other women on his phone, and that on the night before the death she was in a wound-up state of panic because he was leaving. Those lines are not on The Irish Times verdict page fetched here. RTE's 17:12 story says he had denied the charge. The Irish Times verdict page does not print that denial. What the court said after the verdict is on the 17:12 story. It says he left Chad in 2012 due to war, that he is the father of an adult daughter, and that Detective Garda Margaret Slevin of Nenagh Garda Station told the court he had been living illegally in this country since 2024, when his residency lapsed, and that he had 11 previous convictions, including assault, public order breaches and criminal damage. The adult daughter is not named. Those lines are not on The Irish Times, The Journal, or the Limerick Post. RTE says the judge noted that although she was a woman of mature years, a mother and a grandmother, she had remained very active, and it quotes him, "She was very well know and manifestly well loved by family and friends." Know, in that quotation, is the spelling on the page. It says he said that at 89 she was entitled to an age of ease and had been denied that by an act of senseless violence, "in her home, in her carefully made bed, where she was entitled to feel safe." It says a granddaughter, Rosie O'Brien, one of 10 grandchildren, read a victim impact statement that called Josephine Ray the heart of the family, and that the statement said the family home at 91 St Joseph's Park is no longer in existence. The number 91 is that statement, as RTE prints it. It is not the address line on The Irish Times verdict page, which says St Joseph's Park and does not print the number. RTE says he was led away to prison. The Irish Times page, filed at 14:36, does not say he had been sentenced. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
