JAILED: David Logan killed Joshua, Coby-Jay and Skylar Flynn BARROW’S MP says he is supporting possible changes to the law that could see killer drivers jailed for life after the sentence handed down to Dalton’s David Logan sparked outrage. Simon Fell said he was ‘shocked’ at the 10-year and 10-month jail sentence given to the motorist who killed a dad, two children and the family dog while under the influence. A Bill is passing through Parliament that could see harsher sentences for those convicted of causing death by dangerous driving, like Logan, 48. He was sentenced at Preston Crown Court this week after he previously admitted causing the deaths of dad Joshua James Flynn, his children Skylar Flynn and Coby-Jay Flynn and their pet dog Troy.
A COUNCILLOR has criticised the sentence handed down to a man who killed a father, two children and the family dog through dangerous driving. David Christopher Logan was jailed for ten years and ten months at Preston Crown Court after he admitted three counts of dangerous driving, drink driving and criminal damage. The former soldier killed pedestrians Joshua James Flynn, Skylar Flynn, Coby-Jay Flynn and their pet dog Troy while the family members were out on a Father’s Day walk on Abbey Road near Dalton in June last year. Logan, 48, was also banned from getting behind the wheel for 16 years and five months.
