Man who downloaded child abuse videos avoids jail
Stage: Sentence
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: Passing sentence today, Judge Martin Nolan said what O'Keeffe had done was reprehensible, noting that he has "rightly" suffered public shame. "Downloading child pornography is not a victimless crime – I hope he [O'Keeffe] understands that," said the judge, handing down a fully-suspended sentence of two years.
