Ronan Keating has condemned the “broken” justice system after a man was spared jail over the death of his brother, Ciaran, in a car crash last year.
Pop singer called Dean Harte’s suspended sentence over the fatal car collision last summer a ‘devastating example’ of ‘how broken our justice system is’.
Posting to Instagram the day after the sentencing, Ronan – who helped carry his brother’s coffin during the funeral last year – said that it was a “devastating example” of “how broken our justice system is”.
Ciaran Keating and his wife, Annmarie, were on their way to their son Ruairi’s football match in Mayo, Ireland, in July 2023, when the two-vehicle collision took place.
Harte was given a 17-month suspended sentence at Castlebar Circuit Court in Mayo on Wednesday (19 February) after pleading guilty to careless driving causing death, the Courts Service said.
