The partner of a 73-year-old man whose head was stomped on four times during a sickening and unprovoked 14-minute beating, has told the Sunday World: No sentence could ever be long enough for what was done to him.
In an exclusive interview, given after Jonathan O Driscoll from Macroom, Co Cork was jailed for 13 years for the horror attack on Christy O Callaghan, the pensioner s partner Ann Holland told us: People who d do that, I d line them up and shoot them. There is no excuse for what he did to him.
A heartbroken Ann also told how champion greyhound trainer Christy spent a year in hospital before being moved to a nursing home, where he is now confined to a wheelchair as a direct result of the horrific and unprovoked beating dished out to him by O Driscoll (31).
