flag Irish man charged with murdering parents and brother; court ordered psychiatric evaluation.

Robert O’Connor, 31, of Drumgowna, County Louth, Ireland, has been charged with the murders of his parents and brother, whose bodies were found at their home on Monday. He appeared via videolink at Drogheda District Court, where he was formally charged with three counts of murder but made no response. O’Connor, described as expressionless and dressed in a grey sweatshirt and black tracksuit pants, has been under mental health care since age 22. His defense solicitor requested a psychiatric evaluation and legal aid, which the judge granted. Judge Stephanie Coggans ordered him remanded into custody. He is scheduled to appear again in court on October 6. The case remains under investigation, with no further details released.
