Conman’s suspended jail time reactivated
At Ennis Circuit Court, Judge Donagh McDonagh activated a 21-month suspended sentence of a two-year jail term he imposed on Frankie Shanley, aged 35, with addresses at Carrick on Shannon, Co Leitrim and Boyle, Co Roscommon in November 2008 over Shanley stealing a €22,000 sports car he took for a test drive from a garage.
Judge McDonagh jailed Shanley yesterday after his failure to engage with the Probation Service after his release from prison in 2009.
