Man killed in case of mistaken identity 'had heart of gold and a bright future', says mother
A young man who was mistaken for a gang member and stabbed to death in a field had a "heart of gold and a bright future", his mother told a sentencing hearing for his killer at the Central Criminal Court today.
Michael Kinsella (aged 24), of Swiftbrook Close in Tallaght, pleaded guilty last December to the manslaughter of 29-year-old Adil Essalhi, who was killed on January 6, 2011.
