Wife killer Joe O’Reilly had to be moved to the Midlands Prison because of his constant “disruptive” behaviour.
O’Reilly, 50, who brutally murdered his wife Rachel at their home in Naul in 2004, was transferred from Dublin’s Wheatfield Prison to the Midlands Prison in Co Laois on Tuesday night. Sources told Dublin Live that his bad behaviour had caused significant problems for other prisoners.
It is understood that following a series of verbal arguments, O’Reilly was identified as being the problem. While he has not been formally punished, sources say the move to the Midlands Prison is a slap on the wrist for O’Reilly - effectively putting him in a “time-out” so that he can maybe learn from his mistakes.
