McDowell pours cold water on tougher sentencing call
Justice Minister Michael McDowell has poured cold water on the Taoiseach’s call for tougher sentencing in the wake of the murder of Donna Carey in Dublin at the weekend.
Yesterday, Bertie Ahern told the Dáil that he would like to see tougher sentencing to ensure a person sent to prison for life is never released back into society.
