Dublin gangland: Two men caged for their part in brutal murder of Vincent Ryan, brother of IRA chief Alan

Two Dublin men have been caged for their part in the murder of Vincent Ryan who was blasted to death outside his girlfriend’s north Dublin home in 2016.

Jeffrey Morrow from Burnell Court in Coolock has been sentenced to 11 years in prison, while Paul O’Beirne, a 36-year-old from Colepark Drive in Ballyfermot, received a nine-year jail sentence.

Tragic 25-year-old Vinnie, the brother of murdered Real IRA chief Alan Ryan, had just dropped his girlfriend and their newborn child off when he was blasted to death.

The dad of one was riddled with bullets and was hit twice in the head, once in the throat and a number of times in the body.

RTE reports that Mr Justice Michael White said the pair were both very close to the killing and had got involved with a crime gang which had no respect for life.
