The foster carer for two children of married man Edmundas Dauksa, who stabbed his former partner 19 times in front of their six-year-old daughter, has said it was unspeakably horrific for the little innocent child to watch her mother being brutally murdered by her father. The scene has left her sad and afraid, sleepless nights, always questioning why daddy did this to her mammy. A child should grow up and have a happy and a loving childhood, surrounded with love and smiles from their parents.

A CENTRAL CRIMINAL Court jury has found a married man guilty of murdering his former partner, whom he stabbed 19 times in front of their six-year-old daughter days after the child was placed in the custody of her mother by a court.
The 12 jurors rejected Edmundas Dauksa’s defence that he had not been “fuelled with murderous intent” when he carried out the attack on the mother-of-two under a darkened archway during the middle of the day.

A Central Criminal Court jury has found a married man guilty of murdering his former partner in Dundalk, whom he stabbed 19 times in front of their six-year-old daughter days after the child was placed in the custody of her mother by a court.
The 12 jurors rejected Edmundas Dauksa s defence that he had not been fuelled with murderous intent when he carried out the attack on the mother-of-two under a darkened archway in Dundalk during the middle of the day.
It was also the defence contention that the accused had felt wronged and wronged again by a system which had failed him appallingly , after the deceased had received custody of the child in an abnormal and accelerated District Court hearing days before the killing.

A witness told the trial this afternoon that she heard a child screaming outside her window on the afternoon of the killing and said: “The second scream sounded like a dog was about to attack the child, it was like a cry for help”.
