Security Guard who got wholly suspended sentence for unprovoked attack on woman in her own home is jailed for two years after successful DPP appeal
Stage: Appeal
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: He was given a wholly suspended three year prison sentence, suspended for five years on conditions, by Judge Carroll Moran on November 25, 2013. The Director of Public Prosecutions successfully argued in the Court of Appeal last month that Kilmartin's sentence was unduly lenient.; Sentencing was adjourned for five months and expert evidence was given which described the condition he was suffering from, Mr Justice Ryan said.
