Wednesday's papers focus on the fallout of the Regency Hotel murder trial where Gerry Hutch was found not guilty of the murder of David Byrne. An explosion at a Cork factory which left two people with burns also makes the front pages.
The Irish Times reports Jonathan Dowdall, the State’s key witness during the trial of Gerard Hutch has been accepted into witness protection, a decision which will be unaffected by Mr Hutch’s acquittal this week.
The Irish Examiner and The Echo both lead on an explosion at a Cork at plant where two men suffered titanium burns.
