Michael Ferris should have been required to explain his actions in court says victim's niece
The niece of a farmer who died after his car was rammed with the prongs of a teleporter has told of the family’s dismay at the brevity of the sentence handed down in the Central Criminal Court yesterday to the neighbour who pleaded guilty to manslaughter.
Michael Ferris of Rattoo, Ballyduff was found guilty in October of the manslaughter of Anthony O’Mahony at Rattoo on April 4th last year. He was jailed for six years, with the final 12 months of his prison term suspended.
