Son of Kinahan Crime Boss Freed After Arms Cache Plot Conviction

Jack Kavanagh, who conspired to reduce his father's drug smuggling sentence by hiding weapons, is released after serving time on remand.

Jack Kavanagh, 21 at the time of the plot, admitted to conspiring to possess firearms and ammunition to aid his father's legal case.
The scheme involved acquiring and hiding a stash of weapons and tipping off authorities to reduce Thomas Kavanagh's 21-year drug smuggling sentence.
Encrypted EncroChat messages, cracked by French authorities, revealed Jack's role as a messenger in the conspiracy.
Judge Philip Katz sentenced Jack to three years and one month, but his time on remand led to immediate release from Belmarsh prison.
Other conspirators, including Thomas Kavanagh and associates, received additional prison sentences for their roles in the arms plot.
