Cases
latest first- Man's manslaughter sentence reduced to eight years in Oughterard Manslaughter · Co. Galway
John Kenny, 56, was killed at his pub in Oughterard, Co Galway on 25 September 2011 after his hands were tied behind his back and a jacket was wound tightly around his face and head, with injuries consistent with blows from a heavy object and kicks and punches. Marian Lingurar Jnr, a Romanian man who was 16 at the time of the offence, had been working as a doorman at the pub for a week and had planned to rob Kenny of his takings. Lingurar broke his bail conditions, fled Ireland and returned under a false name, delaying his trial until January 2019, when a jury at Galway Circuit Criminal Court convicted him of manslaughter. He was sentenced to nine years' imprisonment in May 2019, and the Court of Appeal reduced the sentence to eight years in April 2022.
