Wykes pleaded guilty to the assault and was sentenced in May 2022 to two years in prison with the final year suspended for three years.

On 26 November 2017, a number of men were fighting on Park Road, Edgeworthstown, Co Longford, and Dylan Stokes (25), Kevin Stokes Senior, and Kevin Stokes Junior pulled up beside the injured parties' vehicle and damaged the car. Dylan Stokes was previously deemed unfit to stand trial, but the case was re-entered at Longford Circuit Court in November 2023, where he pleaded guilty to violent disorder. The judge described the offence as one of considerable violence and said Stokes was probably easily led by his father and brother. All three were given suspended prison sentences: 12 months for Stokes, one year for Kevin Stokes Senior, and five years for Kevin Stokes Junior.

Sentenced, 27 May 2022Victim · 5 reports - Longford siblings sentenced for feud-related knife assault Assault causing harm (Section 3); violent disorder · Co. Longford
Daniel Lawrence, a 31-year-old man, sustained multiple stab wounds to his head, stomach, back and arm in a feud-related attack outside Aldi on Athlone Road, Longford, on 1 April 2019. The incident stemmed from a history of antagonism over Lawrence's relationship with Kate Stokes, a sister of the accused, Kevin Stokes Jnr, 29, and Chantelle Stokes, 20. Chantelle Stokes, aged 17 at the time, made a voluntary statement taking responsibility for the knife attack, while Kevin Stokes Jnr denied involvement, was charged in September 2019, fled to Northern Ireland, and surrendered in August 2021. Both pleaded guilty to Section 3 assault causing harm at Longford Circuit Criminal Court. On 2 February 2022, Kevin Stokes Jnr was sentenced to three years and four months in prison and Chantelle Stokes received a 12-month suspended sentence for the assault and 240 hours of community service for violent disorder.
