THESE were the harrowing scenes as the injured wife of Tommy Dooley was brought from her hospital bed to attend a memorial for her husband who died after a stabbing incident at a cemetery in Kerry on Wednesday.

Wrapped in a blanket and sitting in a wheelchair, a traumatised Siobhan Dooley attended the balloon release outside the home she shared with Tommy and their children on Thursday evening.

A video of the heart-breaking tribute to Tommy was posted by his daughter on Facebook.

This morning Tommy’s brother Patrick appeared before Kenmare District Court charged with his murder.
