Notorious Dublin Killer Michael Kinsella Released Early After Brutal Murder

URGENT UPDATE: Michael Kinsella, a notorious killer from Dublin, has been freed from prison after serving just ten years of a 15-year sentence for the brutal murder of innocent man Adil Essalhi. Kinsella, 34, was released last week, raising immediate concerns over public safety due to his violent history.
Kinsella, known by the nickname ‘Farmer’, was originally sentenced in May 2016 after pleading guilty to manslaughter. He was charged with the shocking murder of Adil Essalhi, whom he stabbed 58 times in a horrific attack in fields behind the Plaza at Tyrellstown, Co Dublin. The crime was particularly heinous, as Kinsella and his uncle, Wayne Kinsella, lured Essalhi under false pretenses before brutally killing him, attempting to destroy evidence by burning his body.
Reports confirm that Kinsella had been in protective custody during his time at Mountjoy Prison due to conflicts with gang members and violent incidents with other inmates. A source from Mountjoy expressed relief at his release, stating, “This fella has a long history of violence; we are glad to see the back of him. He got off lightly for what he did.”
Essalhi, a father of five, was innocent of the accusations tied to Kinsella’s brother, Lee Kinsella, who had been murdered in 2006. The investigation revealed that Essalhi had no involvement in Lee’s death, a fact acknowledged during Kinsella’s trial. Essalhi’s mother, Geraldine, delivered a heart-wrenching victim impact statement, detailing how her son’s death had devastated their family. “He had a heart of gold and a bright future,” she said, emphasizing the emotional toll of the loss.
Kinsella, who has a lengthy criminal record with over 30 prior convictions, has been in and out of detention since he was just 14 years old. His uncle, Wayne Kinsella, was sentenced to life in prison for his role in the murder and is considered an “extremely dangerous man.” During the trial, it was revealed that Michael feared retaliation from his uncle if he did not participate in the murder.
With Kinsella now back in society, authorities are on high alert. The implications of his release raise serious concerns for community safety, with many wondering how soon he may reoffend.
As this situation develops, the public is urged to stay vigilant. The shocking details of Kinsella’s release and the brutal nature of his crime continue to reverberate through the community.
