A member of the Hutch family who suffers from PTSD after witnessing his cousin being shot has been jailed for a robbery.
Sammy Hutch, 50, was today jailed for six and a half years after the robbery in which he was armed with a hammer at a Dublin Dealz store.
He was convicted of the robbery following a Dublin Circuit Criminal Court trial last October, in which he maintained he was not the person on the CCTV.
He was apprehended after DNA matches to a balaclava and gloves, which were found by gardai.
The court heard that the “elephant in the room” might be Hutch’s surname, but that he was not involved in gangland feuds or organised crime.
Hutch, of Cardiffsbridge Avenue, Finglas, was convicted by a jury last year of the robbery at Dealz, Rathfarnham Shopping Centre, on October 1, 2023.
