Man given six-year sentence for stabbing friend
A man who repeatedly stabbed a life-long friend after a drink and drugs binge and called gardaí himself after leaving the man he believed he had killed alone in the flat for an hour has been sentenced to six years in prison.
Bernard Locke (aged 36) rang his mother and various friends to tell them he had killed his friend, Liam Doyle, before contacting gardaí who discovered on their arrival that the man was still alive.
