Douglas Glynn was sentenced to seven years and six months, with the final year suspended, at the Special Criminal Court on 14 February 2022 for participating in a criminal organisation’s murder plot.

The court heard that Glynn pleaded guilty to placing a tracking device on James Gately’s car during the planned attack. The sentence was backdated to 31 December 2021, when he entered custody.

The court said Glynn’s role in managing and planting the tracker placed him higher in the organisation than co-accused David Duffy and Stephen Fowler.
