The incident happened in 2024. Convicted in 2025, even if he loses his appeal, he won't start serving his sentence until the Summer of 2026.

DJ Carey, a legendary Kilkenny hurler, he pretended to have cancer to defraud money from friends and supporters. At one point he posted a photo of "his hospital treatment" which was very clearly him lying in a normal bed with a phone charger up his nose.
