Cork Prison inmate seeks early release due to incurable brain cancer
Jonathan Heaphy, who has 144 convictions for crimes including drugs offences, threatening behaviour, and theft, has written a letter from Cork Prison. He was sent there in May 2016 after receiving a seven-year sentence, with three suspended, for money-laundering offences.
In the letter, seen by the Irish Examiner, Heaphy said he has had four operations in the last eight years to remove brain tumours.
