A husband who hired an "unhinged" man to act as a hitman in a "grotesque plan" to kill a couple who were having an "online affair" with his wife has been jailed for four and a half years.
Bryan Kennedy (35) was today sentenced at the Central Criminal Court by Ms Justice Caroline Biggs to five years' imprisonment with the final six months suspended for six months.
At Kennedy's first sentence hearing in January, Ms Justice Biggs said she wanted to allow time for the child and family agency Tusla to put in place supports for Kennedy's children so they would not suffer prejudice due to his prison sentence.
