The Father Of Fermoy Man Keith Byrne Says He's 'Bitterly Disappointed' With The Irish Government

Keith Byrne signed his deportation order yesterday

The father-of-three has been living in the States since 2007, after overstaying his visa. 

However he was arrested by Immigration officials last week in Pennsylvania on his way to work, where he lived with his wife and children. 

Yesterday he agreed to his deportation order - after being threatened with a 5 year jail sentence in a federal prison. 

Keith's father, Jim, says the Irish government should have intervened.
