Stage: Sentence
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: Judge Nolan said the headline jail term for the robbery should be up to nine years but he imposed a prison sentence of six years after taking O'Neill's guilty plea and genuine remorse into account. The sentence was backdated to December 17 last when O'Neill was first placed in custody.
