Killer 'at minimal risk of reoffending', court told

The 41-year-old man who killed a teenager in a bar on an island off the Donegal coast is at “minimal risk of reoffending”, his defence counsel told a court today.

Last month, a Central Criminal Court jury found Stephen Boyle not guilty of the murder but guilty of the manslaughter of Paul Boyle (aged 19) at Early’s Bar, Leabgarrow, Arranmore on October 3, 2009.
