Case No. 15137Money laundering · Co. Offaly · 27 Oct 2023

Offaly man given probation for money laundering at Tullamore court

Craig Tyrell (22), of Edenderry, Offaly, was charged with laundering €12,647.89 at an AIB branch in Edenderry on 27 October 2023. The money was said to be the proceeds of criminal conduct, and Tyrell had allowed his account to be used. His solicitor said he admitted the offence at the earliest opportunity, and before the hearing he gave €2,000 to the Acorn Project for a barista training project. At Tullamore District Court the Probation Act was applied, and the latest reported development is that outcome, published on 19 December 2024.
