'I wonder just what world some people are living in': gunmen in Cartel plot to murder Patsy Hutch withdraw appeals
Stage: Appeal
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: Mr Justice Birmingham noted that Glen Thompson had already received a 25% discount from a headline sentence of 18 years which he remarked was "very much on the generous side". Mr Justice Birmingham said the issue was whether the 12.5-year sentences given to the two Thompson brothers were excessive.
