Declan Brady, formerly of Wolstan Abbey in Celbridge, is already serving sentences for firearms and money laundering offences.
A senior member of the Kinahan Organised Crime Group has been handed a nine-year prison sentence for his role in the murder of a man in Dublin in 2016.
Declan Brady, formerly of Wolstan Abbey in Celbridge, is already serving sentences for firearms and money laundering offences.
Noel Kirwan was shot dead outside his home three days before Christmas 2016.
The 62 year old, who had no links to criminality, was photographed next to Gerry ‘The Monk’ Hutch at Eddie Hutch’s funeral, and it’s believed that’s why he was targeted.
A tracker was placed on his car so his movements could be monitored remotely from an apartment at the Beacon South Quarter in Dublin.
Declan Brady’s DNA was found in that apartment and the gardai also linked him to the murder through an extensive surveillance operation.
Mr Kirwan’s daughter, Donna, accepted that he hadn’t pulled the trigger but told him through her victim impact statement that her father’s murder wouldn’t have happened without him and asked how it felt to know he’d killed an innocent man.
Mr Justice Tony Hunt handed him a ten year sentence today with the final year suspended on condition he continues his disassociation with the Kinahan gang.
