Scots murderer who knifed man to death slammed by victim’s family after launching justice campaign
A convicted murderer who stabbed an innocent man to death has been slammed by his victim’s family after launching a justice campaign.
Now, less than three years after his release, brazen Toal has completed a law degree and is preparing to launch his own crime podcast. A family spokesman told the Record: “As far as we’re concerned Sean Toal is the convicted murderer of Paul Gerard. He can kid himself on and everyone else with what he’s doing but at the end of the day he’s nothing but a cold-blooded convicted killer who has shown not an ounce of remorse for his victim’s family.Apprentice panel beater Paul Gerard, known as PG, was knifed repeatedly in the head and chest by Toal in an unprovoked attack after arriving at a party to collect his girlfriend.
Toal’s legal team argued the conviction was unsafe on a string of grounds, but their bid to overturn his guilty verdict was rejected in 2012 – after six years of court hearings. His legal aid bill at that point was understood to be about £100,000.
