💨 Abstract

Former Irish hurling star DJ Carey was sentenced to five-and-a-half years in prison for defrauding nearly £350,000 from 22 people by falsely claiming he had cancer. Carey, 54, sent a manipulated image to victims, pretending to be receiving oxygen. Judge Martin Nolan noted that Carey exploited the good nature of his victims, who wanted to help someone in need.
