Cases
latest first- Man sentenced to life for murder in Finglas Murder · Co. Dublin
Michael Ryan, 51, was fatally stabbed in the neck in a carpark at the back of Joseph Lawlor's home in Finglas, Dublin, in the early hours of 20 June 2024. The two men had been drinking together and had three physical altercations that evening; Lawlor stabbed Ryan once with a bread knife, severing a branch of the carotid artery. Lawlor, 39, was arrested the same night, charged with murder on 21 June 2024, and pleaded not guilty. A Central Criminal Court jury found him guilty on 20 February 2026, rejecting his self-defence claim. Judge Patrick McGrath sentenced Lawlor to life imprisonment on 27 February 2026.
