Death-threat Limerick man has jail time reduced

The Court of Criminal Appeal has reduced the jail sentence imposed on Limerick man Wayne Dundon for threatening to kill a young barman, who had refused to allow his 14-year-old sister into a pub, from ten to seven years after finding that the original sentence was unduly severe.

Dundon (aged 29), of Lenihan Avenue, Prospect, Limerick, was convicted in May 2005 at Limerick Circuit Court of threatening to kill Ryan Lee at Brannigan's Pub, Mulgrave Street, Limerick, on December 19th, 2004.
