    Decision to approve transfer of convicted murderer from Limerick Prison to UK strongly criticised

    Reports that Minister for Justice Simon Harris approved Logan Jackson's application to be transferred from Limerick Prison to a UK prison, after the 2022 transfer decision was set aside by the High Court to allow Kevin Sheehy's mother Tracey Tully to make a submission. Limerick City TD Willie O'Dea criticised the decision as a 'bolt from the blue'.
