A red brick wall, sloppily erected under the staircase in a terraced home in Youghal, Co Cork, signalled to a forensic archaeologist that Tina Satchellâs skeletal remains may be concealed there under a concrete floor. Such âhome improvementsâ around the staircase in the sitting room of the missing womanâs home were âred flagsâ and motivated an invasive search at the house on 3 Grattan St in October 2023.

“Shamelessly brazen to the very end,” telling “clever lies” which were ultimately “self-serving,” is how murder-accused Richard Satchwell was described by prosecuting counsel in closing arguments in his trial. Mr Satchwell displayed “conniving actions, full of guile”, and wove “a web of deceit” after burying his wife under a concrete floor in the sitting room of their Youghal home, prosecuting barrister Gerardine Small SC said in the State’s closing speech.

“Controlling and odd,” is how Tina Satchwell’s half-sister described murder-accused Richard Satchwell. Lorraine Howard told the Central Criminal Court that Mr Satchwell referred to Mrs Satchwell as his “trophy wife” and wanted to know where she was “all the time”. Mrs Satchwell’s skeletal remains were found buried beneath the stairs in the sitting room of her Youghal home on October 11, 2023, more than six years after she went missing.
