A jury in Dublin's Central Criminal Court failed to reach a verdict in the attempted murder trial of Philip Cox, who stabbed his ex-partner, Cristal O'Brien, twice during an attack at her home. Cox pleaded not guilty to the attempted murder but admitted to assault causing harm, aggravated burglary, and producing a knife during the dispute. The jury deliberated for seven hours and 33 minutes over three days but could not reach a verdict and was dismissed by the judge without a majority decision. The judge listed the matter for mention on March 22nd.
