Father furious over sentences for son’s killers

AFTER losing one son to violence, Thomas Moloney Snr watched in disbelief yesterday as two killers who beat another of his sons to death at a filling station were given short sentences.

Members of the Moloney family and their friends attacked the convicted men as they were led away from Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

William McDonnell, aged 39, of Mary Aikenhead House, Dublin, received five years, while Francis Kenny, aged 43, of Basin Street, was jailed for three years for the manslaughter of 26-year-old Thomas Moloney Jnr.
