Byrne then pleaded guilty to possession of a loaded 9mm Luger-caliber Radom 35 firearm at a house in Woodford Grove, Clondalkin, Dublin 22 on November 15th, 2019. “There was no response at all, he [Trevor Byrne] just sat there looking at me,” the Det Gda said.

Mr Justice Hunt backdated the sentence to November 2019, when Byrne was taken into custody.
