A County Wicklow man found guilty of killing his ex-fiancé's baby has been sentenced to eleven years in prison.

Philip Doyle was convicted of the manslaughter of three month old Ross Murphy in 2005.

Mr Doyle had pleaded not guilty at the Central Criminal Court to killing three and half month old baby Ross Murphy in 2005.

In a victim impact statement delivered by the family last week, they said that their lives would never be the same.

A jury returned a unanimous verdict of guilty of manslaughter.
