Keane murder scene cleaner in jail terror

A MAN who cleaned up the house where teenager Keane MulreadyWoods was butchered is under protection in jail after threats on his life.

Gerard “Ged” McKenna, 52, is beginning a four-year jail term at Mountjoy Prison for mopping up the bloodied scene and removing evidence.

The dad-of-eight, from Rathmullen Park in Drogheda, was convicted on Tuesday after pleading guilty to the clean-up, and to impeding the prosecution of others for the murder.

His jail term was backdated to when he went into custody 22 months ago – and he is now segregated from other prisoners following his conviction.
