Convicted wife killer Eamonn Lillis has walked free from prison.
Yesterday, Lillis refused to sign the papers that would have allowed him to leave Wheatfield jail in West Dublin, because of the large media presence waiting for him outside.
However the 57-year-old, who was jailed in February 2010 for the manslaughter of his wife Celine Cawley, had until 10am this morning to be released.
He was collected from outside the prison in the last few minutes and is expected to head straight to Dublin Airport, as he has contacts in both the UK and France.
