Lucia O'Farrell calls Dáil apology a 'watershed' moment

The O’Farrell family welcome yesterday’s long-overdue State apology for the catalogue of systemic failures that led to the tragic death of Shane in August 2011.

The mother of Shane O'Farrell says a Dáil apology represents a 'watershed' moment in her fight for justice.

Lucia O'Farrell's son was killed in a hit and run incident in Carrickmacross in August 2011, at 23 years-of-age.

The man who hit Shane - Zigimantas Gridziuska should have been in jail at the time of the collision.
