Action after jailed driver used social media

The Ministry of Justice has said it will take “immediate action” after claims that a jailed hit-and-run driver used social media in prison.

It follows a newspaper report claiming that Aidan Mcateer celebrated his 24th birthday by posting an image of a card on Instagram, which appears to be from fellow inmates.

The Liverpool Echo said the post, which has now been removed, is among several images published by Mcateer since he was jailed in May over the death of four-year-old Violet-grace Youens.
