The Court of Criminal Appeal today freed Mr Kevin Meehan, whose son Brian was jailed for life for the Veronica Guerin murder, after his five year sentence for laundering his son’s money was quashed.
The conviction was quashed on the grounds that the charges Mr Kevin Meehan faced were unsafe.
Mr Meehan had served two years of the sentence. As he left the court he said: "Brian is next."
