A Cork man who was convicted of the manslaughter of a French man in the city had part of his jail term suspended back in 2016 but now he has been sent back to prison for failing to comply with the probation service.

Judge Helen Boyle said Daniel O’Sullivan was fortunate to have such a dedicated probation officer in Sharon Kennedy in Waterford. Ms Kennedy described Daniel O’Sullivan as a young man with great potential who needed to address his heroin addiction and related issues in order to realise that potential.
