• Appeal dismissed in Cork post office robbery case Robbery · Co. Cork

  Fintan Tindley, a 49-year-old man from Mahon, Cork, pleaded guilty to robbing two post offices and attempting a third in Cork City in November 2022, putting a knife to the necks of customers to demand money, leaving five people shaken but uninjured. He was arrested on 18 November 2022 and charged with two robberies, one attempted robbery, three death threats, and three counts of producing a knife. He was sentenced at Cork Circuit Criminal Court in June 2023 to four years in prison after the trial judge reduced a headline sentence of nine years, and the Court of Appeal dismissed the DPP's bid to increase the term in March 2024.
