Former Chief Executive of Custom House Capital was jailed for role in €61m fraud
The former Chief Executive of Custom House Capital , jailed for his role in a €61m conspiracy to defraud investors in the firm over a decade ago, has appealed his prison term, arguing it was wrong for a judge to “pluck” a headline sentence of 14 years “out of the air”.
“There is a moral difference,” he said. “The court failed to take that into consideration significantly when passing sentence.” Mr Hartnett told the three-judge appeal panel it was wrong for a court to “merely pluck” a figure of 14 years as a headline sentence “out of the air”. He said the judge couldn’t have placed this case in any category other than the highest end of the ranges available.
