Drunk driver jailed for car crash which killed his fiancée
Padraig McCarthy from Springmount, Kinsale, Co Cork, was sentenced to three years with the last two years suspended at Cork Circuit Criminal Court yesterday after previously pleading guilty to a charge of dangerous driving causing the death of Valerie O’Donovan, aged 31, on Dec 23, 2012, at Manch, Ballineen, Co Cork.
McCarthy said that no sentence could make his life any worse as a result of what he had done.
