“I want a meeting with Minster Harris. I want him to consider reversing the decision he made Thursday. I want to know why, why,” Ms Tully said.
The mother of murdered Irish champion boxer, Kevin Sheehy, said today she will seek a face-to-face meeting with Minster for Justice Simon Harris as soon as possible, to ask him to reconsider his decision granting her son’s killer a transfer to a UK jail.
Jackson, 30s, from Longford Rd, Coventry, repeatedly struck Mr Sheehy, , with a 4x4 vehicle, in an unprovoked attack, on July 1, 2019 and he was sentenced to life at Limerick Prison in December 2021. Ms Tully said Jackson “brutally massacred” her beloved son who she said had lived for sport and his family.
“I know parents that have taken their lives or who have ended up in terrible situations because they didn't know what to do, and thank god Tracey didn't go down that route.”
