Amy McAuley’s three concurrent two-year sentences for theft, suspended for 10 years, were upheld by the Court of Appeal on 9 June 2016.

The thefts occurred at Nordzucker Ireland Ltd in Sandyford Industrial Estate, Dublin, between July 2013 and February 2014.

The court dismissed the DPP’s application to review the sentences as unduly lenient.
