The Special Criminal Court has jailed a Drogheda criminal for 10 years for assisting in the "disgraceful and inhuman" murder of teenager Keane Mulready-Woods, whose body was chopped up and discarded at various locations in Louth and north Dublin.

Mr Justice Tony Hunt on Friday suspended part of Paul Crosby's sentence on condition that he be of good behaviour for two years following his release. The 27-year-old, who has more than 40 previous convictions, smiled as he agreed to enter the bond.
