Outcome: Photo: Collins) A teenager who took part in a "savage attack" by a gang of youths that left then 17-year-old Alanna Quinn Idris blind in one eye has been sentenced to four and a half years in prison. Speaking outside Dublin Circuit Criminal Court this afternoon, Ms Quinn Idris told reporters she felt her victim impact statement had been "pointless" and that she did not feel very good about the sentence imposed. "I've to be like this now for the rest of my life and in four-and-a-half-years' time, he [Lyons] will be out and about," Ms Quinn Idris said.
