The mother of a Dublin man, stabbed to death by his friend, has described the legal system as ‘a game where justice never wins’.
There were highly charged scenes at the Central Criminal Court, where Martin Toland was jailed for 6 and a half years for the manslaughter of 28-year-old Alan Nolan at Cedar Brook Walk, Ballyfermot on September 8th, 2007.

Gardaí had to intervene when a disturbance broke out in court following sentencing.
They removed the Nolan family after the defence counsel in the case was verbally abused and members of the killer’s family were given a garda escort from the courts complex.
