Sentencing adjourned over victim statement

A JUDGE has adjourned sentencing four men accused of impeding the investigation into a killing due to comments in a highly critical victim impact statement read in court.

Mr Justice Barry White was due to sentence the men in the Central Criminal Court yesterday, having heard the evidence and victim impact statement on Monday.

Two Lithuanian men, a Polish man and an Irish man have pleaded guilty to disposing of and trying to destroy the body of a 30-year-old woman in Wexford last year.
