GAA chiefs to meet over rally for Traveller-killer

Mayo GAA chiefs meet tonight to decide if they will back a national rally for Padraig Nally, who was jailed for six years last week for manslaughter of a Traveller.

The south Mayo bachelor farmer, 61 shot John ’Frog’ Ward twice and beat him 20 times with a stick when he found him trespassing in his farmyard in October 2004.
