It was ironic how Hutch's arrival, presence and departure at the Criminal Courts every day of his trial required heavily armed gardai. Yet, here he was walking on the streets.

Surrounded by around 40 reporters and photographers, Gerry Hutch strolled out the front doors of the Criminal Courts of Justice, a free man.

He strolled around to the left of the building and journalists shouted questions as a member of his legal team attempted to flag down a taxi. A random man had also taken it upon himself to put his arm around Hutch and tell the media to "leave him alone" and to "let him grieve in peace."When asked about his legal team, Hutch didn't respond but he did break out in a wry smile for a moment, the only reaction seen from him all day.It was ironic how Hutch's arrival, presence and departure at the Criminal Courts every day of his trial required heavily armed gardai.

Throughout his trial, Hutch had been clean shaven but he had grown a big bushy grey beard while his hair was also noticeably longer.Hutch took his place nearest to the front of the court, with Murphy in the middle and Bonney next to him - the same way all three have been placed throughout the trial. Hutch adjusted his position throughout the day, not having a cushion on the solid wood benches like he previously had.
