Veronica Guerin's family say they would find it "extremely difficult", if her killer was released from prison.
Brian Meehan murdered the crime reporter 25 years ago tomorrow - and is now seeking to be transferred from Wheatfield Prison to Shelton Abbey Open Jail here in Wicklow, which will entitle him to day release.
Veronica's brother Jimmy says only the Minister of Justice can grant Mr Meehan's full release from jail, which he hopes will never happen.
