Mahon told gardaí he ‘wasn’t built for prison’

Measuring 5’ 6” and walking with a stick, David Mahon had told gardaí he “wasn’t built for prison”.

However, that was where he was taken yesterday after the Dubliner was found guilty of killing his stepson, Dean Fitzpatrick, the older brother of missing teenager Amy Fitzpatrick.

Prison officers led him from court to be remanded in custody for sentencing on May 30.
