The mother of a bride-to-be who was run over just hours after she had been shopping for her dream wedding dress says her family have not got justice for their daughter.
Rosemary Connolly spoke out after Sean Connaughton, 54, a disqualified driver, was jailed for five years for running over Laura Connolly, 35, in her hometown of Lifford in Co Donegal in 2021.
Judge John Aylmer said there were a number of aggravating factors and placed the charges at the upper end of the scale.
But speaking outside court, Rosemary Connolly said: “We didn’t get any justice for our daughter’s death. The runaround that he gave us, right up to today. Postpone, postpone, postpone. The family is destroyed and wrecked. The five years will never bring my daughter back.
“We’ll never be able to get over that. We can hardly get through every day as it comes. We can’t celebrate birthdays, weddings. I don’t do any celebrations anymore. I don’t receive family gifts, birthday cards, Christmas cards or Mother’s Day cards.
“My Laura was the love of my life from the day she was born. She was a good mother and a good person. She loved life and she lived life to the full."
Rosemary added: “I’ll never be able to move on. I have a broken heart every day that I get up. Laura is in my head 24-7, she never leaves it. I never leave the graveyard, to try and get some kind of peace. Where is the justice for families who are left like me? There is none."

Major Kerry injury concerns ahead of Donegal clash...
Jack O’Connor is sweating on the fitness of Paudie Clifford and Paul Geaney for Kerry’s All-Ireland SFC Round 1 showdown with Donegal on the weekend after next.
Playmaker Clifford retired with a hamstring problem at half-time in last Sunday’s Munster SFC final win over Cork, while a similar injury sidelined captain Geaney who did, however, lift the Corn Pháidí Uí Shé afterwards, which is named after his famous father-in-law.
Dingle defender Tom O’Sullivan also missed out with a calf strain, joining the likes of Sean O’Shea, Joe O’Connor, Brian Ó Beaglaioch, Paul Murphy, Graham O’Sullivan and goalkeeper Shane Ryan on an already lengthy injury list.
“I don’t think he has done major damage, he is not quite able to open up,” the Kerry manager said of Clifford’s injury.
“For safety, we took him off at half-time. He hadn’t done any more damage (before we replaced him).
“Paul Geaney just tweaked a hammer here last Saturday during some internal football. Pity for Paul because he was making a massive effort. Tom (O’Sullivan) has a bit of an issue from the Clare game, so it is a long casualty list, but we’ll soldier on. It is rough enough going at the moment.
“It is hard to pinpoint the cause of it, only just the intensity of the inter-county season, on top of a very intense club season. That has to be the reason. It is not like we are dogging the players or training too hard. It is tough going, but we’ll be getting a few fellas back.”

Malin GAA: Our club grounds are always filled with joy, noise, and laughter, but yesterday was one of the toughest days our club has ever faced.
Yesterday, we took Lewis on his final journey to Connolly Park - Around the pitch he did many a lap on, his teammates took him around one final time.
Lewis, though your time with us was far too short, you left a mark on every heart around this club. Your passion for the Black & Amber, your infectious smile, charm, and incredible attitude brought happiness to so many people every single day.
The memories and moments shared with you will stay with us forever, and life around the club simply won’t be the same without you.
Rest easy Lewis, you’ll always be remembered and forever missed.
LK3 🖤💛
