Sunset House murder: Kinahan cartel 'don't understand importance of a loving family'

Christopher Slator on Friday became the third man convicted of Michael Barr's murder at the Sunset House pub in 2016

Noeleen Barr described her brother Michael Barr (pictured) as a devoted family man who was "decent, loving, charismatic and extremely witty".

The Kinahan cartel took Michael Barr's life when they shot him dead at the Sunset House pub in 2016, but they didn't take his "lasting love and legacy", Mr Barr's sister has told the Special Criminal Court.

In a statement read out at a sentence hearing for the third man convicted of Mr Barr's murder, Noeleen Barr said that the drugs cartel that murdered her brother "do not understand the importance of a loving family. All that matters to them is drugs and wealth." She said a family's love is more valuable than anything and she said she is proud to call the "loveable rogue" Michael Barr her brother.
