Inquest hears husband found Lorna Carty's body on beach

Lorna Carty's husband, Declan Carty, told the inquest into her death that when he found her it looked as if she was lying in the sun.
The jury in the inquest into the deaths of Lorna (54) from Robinstown and Laurence and Martina Hayes from Athlone, recorded verdicts of unlawful killing for all three deaths.
They recommended that a link to a Department of Foreign Affairs smartphone App alerting tourists to risks associated with travel abroad be permanently displayed on all travel websites.
Dublin Coroner's Court heard how the three were shot dead in a terror attack in Tunisia.

Gunman Seifeddine Rezgui walked onto the beach and opened fire with a Kalashnikov rifle, killing 38 people before he was shot dead by authorities.

Declan Carty told how he woke to what he thought at first were fireworks. He said it sounded like a machine gun. His wife had gone to the beach and he tried to ring Lorna but got no answer.
He met a staff member at the lift who pointed to his room key card and he and other guests ran to his room where they stayed until the attack finished.

The inquest hear he then hurried to the beach to look for his wife. 
Before he found her, he lifted a beach towel placed over a body and recognised the face of Martina Hayes.

Then he lifted another towel. “It was Lorna... She was lying with her head to one side as if she was lying in the sun,” he said.
