Pair convicted of transporting €3.3m heroin have sentences reduced
Two men caught transporting €3.3m worth of heroin have succeeded in having their 10-year sentences reduced by two years on appeal.
The Court of Criminal appeal today determined that Judge Katherine Delahunt had erred in principle by imposing 10-year sentences on John Paul Cawley (aged 31) and his co-accused Greg O’Brien (aged 21) at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court in May 2010.
