Court reserves judgement on appeal against McCabe sentences
The Court of Criminal Appeal has reserved until autumn its decision on a State appeal to increase the sentences handed to two of the killers of Detective Garda Jerry McCabe.
The State wants the 14-year terms of Pearse McAuley of Strabane, Co Tyrone, and Kevin Walsh of Lisheen Park, Patrickswell, Co Limerick, to be extended to life sentences.
