Ronan Keating criticises 'broken' justice system as brother's killer ...

Ronan Keating has criticised the "broken justice system" in Ireland on Instagram – after the person responsible for his brother's death walked free.

The Boyzone singer's brother, Ciaran Keating, was in his 50s when he died in a car crash in County Mayo, in the West of Ireland.

He was on his way to his son's football match before the accident in July 2023 - and suffered fatal injuries.

The man involved in the collision, Dean Harte, had pleaded guilty - and was handed a 17-month sentence suspended for two years.

Ronan Keating shared a post on Instagram - highlighting his dismay at the decision.

He said that it was a "devastating example of just how broken our justice system is".

The singer wrote: "You can kill a man... and you can walk free.

"Not even a single night in prison. Just a slap on the wrist and a ticket to carry on your life, like nothing ever happened.

"And then we wonder why we keep seeing this kind of behaviour on our roads, why people keep dying in road accidents across Ireland every week? It's a joke and it's morally corrupt that rather than trying to fix our broken system, they all turn a blind eye."

Criticising the legal system, Keating wrote: "…shame on everyone involved in this process that contributed to the heartbreaking outcome for my family today.

"The Keating family will never find peace. We will continue to fight for Ciaran's justice."
