latest first- Supreme Court upholds 12-year sentence for burglary getaway driver Burglary · Co. Cork
On 19 October 2019 John Faulkner, a 41-year-old man from Cork, acted as getaway driver in a burglary at a house in rural County Cork, where the victims were an elderly couple. When his two companions were arrested at the scene, he drove off at high speed while pursued by gardaí, and the two companions later pleaded guilty and received nine-year sentences in 2020, with two years discounted. Faulkner denied the charges, but a jury found him guilty on 22 April 2021, and he was sentenced to 12 years for burglary with concurrent two-year terms for endangerment and dangerous driving. The Court of Appeal dismissed his severity appeal on 15 December 2022, and on 25 April 2024 the Supreme Court dismissed his appeal against sentence, upholding the 12-year term.
