Parents of debs crash victim Kiea devastated at DPP appeal decision
Irish Daily Star
|June 19, 2025
THE parents of debs crash victim Kiea McCann are heartbroken after being told the DPP has decided not to appeal the leniency of the sentence of driver Anthony McGinn.
Tragic Kiea, 17, died in a horrific crash along with her best friend Dlava Mohamed, 16, as driver McGinn ignored their pleas to slow down and struck a tree at Legnakelly, Co Monaghan on July 31, 2023.
And this paper can also reveal the face of another driver, Alin Sorin Gatea, 46, who this week was given a suspended sentence for speeding in a car a court heard was driven behind McGinn on that tragic day.
McGinn, 61, of Drumloo, Newbliss, Co Monaghan was jailed for seven years last month after a court heard he drove over 151kph in an 80kph zone.
Speaking exclusively to us, a devastated Frankie McCann said he now feels let down by the justice system, after the Director of Public Prosecutions decided not to hear his calls for McGinn's seven-year sentence to be appealed.
He said: "I believe the justice system is full of c**p. I feel there is no justice for any family now.
