Doyle of Ronan’s Way, Clondalkin pleaded guilty at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court to two charges of defilement of a child at his home on April 29th, 2011.
The case had previously been adjourned on two occasions. Judge Mary Ellen Ring had adjourned sentencing in October last year to determine what kind of treatment would be available for Doyle on his release from prison.

Judge Ring sentenced Doyle to three and a half years, backdated the sentence to the date of his plea in July 2012 and suspended the final 18 months of the term.
