Ian Wright is disappointed and tired after Kerry student was spared a criminal conviction

Former England footballer Ian Wright has said he is "disappointed" and "tired" after an 18-year-old Kerry student was spared a criminal conviction for sending racist messages to him last year. Judge David Waters this afternoon decided to apply the provisions of the Probation Act in the case against Patrick O'Brien, of Sycamore Court, Ashleigh Downs, in Tralee. This news has angered many, who say the crime does not match the punishment. Andrea was joined on the show by many callers.
