Robert’s mum asks DPP to appeal killer’s sentence

HEARTBROKEN mum Majella Holohan has requested the Director of Public Prosecutions to consider an appeal against the jail sentence handed down to her son Robert’s killer.

She yesterday emailed the DPP’s office after a traumatic week for the Holohan family in which neighbour Wayne O’Donoghue was sentenced to four years in prison.

The Midleton, Co Cork, mother later spent part of the afternoon at her 11-year-old son’s grave.
