Jail for chronic addict who stole rental car
Stage: Sentence
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: The court heard that McDonagh requested to serve his sentence at the Midlands Prison in order to be near his family and to be away from certain influences in Mountjoy. She imposed a concurrent sentence for the robbery offence which she said involved a considerable amount of force and was extremely frightening.; Judge Greally had previously adjourned sentencing to allow McDonagh time to come fully off methadone.
