Jail for criminal with 190 priors who callously stole from wheelchair user
Stage: Sentence
Outcome: The defendant was today sentenced to four and a half years in prison after he admitted stealing €200 from a 69-year-old wheelchair user at sheltered accommodation in Robinson's Court, Cork Street on September 24, 2021. Judge Crowe set a headline sentence of six years but reduced this to a four-and-a-half-year sentence in light of McNamee's personal and mitigating circumstances.
