In 2023, Martin Lynn was on his way home from town and had just gotten out of a taxi near his home when he was fatally punched in the head by Christopher O’Neill.

O’Neill drove past and stopped his motorbike before approaching Martin. The attack was carried out without warning or provocation and while Mr Lynn had his hands in his pockets.

Last week, criminal Christopher O’Neill of Larkhill Road in Whitehall, Santry, was jailed for six years for the manslaughter of Martin Lynn. In an interview with The Sun, Martin’s sister Sharon is calling for the State to appeal the leniency of the killer’s sentence, and she joined Pat Kenny on the show this morning.
