THE dad of one of the teens charged with the Kansas city murder of Irish chef Shaun Brady says the juvenile justice system has “failed” his son. Tragic Shaun , 44, was shot after he intervened to stop a group trying to steal a car last month. The Tipperary native, who co-owned Brady’s Restaurant in Kansas City, was taken to hospital, where he was later pronounced dead. Two juvenile boys were quickly arrested and have been charged with Shaun’s killing.

PRIMARY school vice-principal Alan Hawe apologised for the manner in which he killed his wife and three kids to death — but claimed he had no choice. In a bloodstained note which was found at their home in Cavan, Ireland, he also claimed the family of five were “happy” on the day he took their lives before taking his own, The Sun reports. “I’m sorry for how I murdered them all but I had no other way,” he wrote, according to the Irish Daily Star .
