A man who caused the death of his girlfriend and baby girl in a car crash has been sentenced to two years in jail substituted by 240 hours of community service

A man who pleaded guilty to dangerous driving causing the deaths of his girlfriend and their baby girl has been sentenced to two years in jail substituted by 240 hours of community service.
Kerry Ann Meehan, 16, and her six-month-old baby girl Niesha died in the crash at Tullygay, about 3km from Letterkenny, on 16 June 2008.
They were travelling in a Toyota Corolla hatchback being driven by Christopher Hanlon, who was 18 at the time.
Letterkenny Circuit Court was told his car spun out of control and hit an Isuzu jeep, which was towing a trailer full of sheep.
Members of the emergency services found the baby under the front passenger seat after the impact. She was taken to hospital where she was pronounced dead.
The teenager was pronounced dead at the scene, while Hanlon was taken to hospital with severe injuries but recovered.
Witnesses described the car travelling at high speed and going out of control and two said they were just narrowly missed by it.
The court was told that the right rear tyre had blown out prior to the impact.
An analysis of the rear tyres showed they were defective and that this was caused by excessive use of the handbrake.
A friend of Hanlon said they had been doing handbrake turns the previous weekend following the Donegal Rally.
In a statement to gardaí, Hanlon said he knew the tyre was not safe, but he took a chance. He had bought the car about a month prior to the crash.
Kerry Ann's mother told the court that the family believed Hanlon should receive a custodial sentence because he had been reckless and irresponsible by driving with a bald tyre.
Hanlon described waking up from a coma and being told what happened and he said it was unbearable. He said he wished he could turn back the clock and it was him instead of them.
Judge John O'Hagan said Hanlon had already served part of his punishment and would be serving it for the rest of his life. He banned Mr Hanlon from driving for eight years
