Thomas Byrne convicted of stealing €52m
The jury returned guilty verdicts on all 50 charges of theft, forgery and deception yesterday after deliberating for 17 and a half hours over the course of six days.
The trial, which lasted 27 days, is the largest theft case in the history of the State. The jury was unanimous in convicting Byrne on all counts. He stared down and did not react as the verdicts were read out.
