Nine-year jail term imposed for machete manslaughter
A 23-year-old man who killed another man in an unprovoked attack during which he was dragged under a car after being attacked with a machete, has been jailed for nine years at the Central Criminal Court.
In sentencing Angelo O'Riordan to 10 years with the final year suspended for the manslaughter of Aidan Myers, Mr Justice Patrick McCarthy described the December 2006 killing in Co Louth as āquite shockingā.
