Senior Investigating Officer Phil Reade said: “Our thoughts remain with those who knew and loved Dylan – particularly his dad and brother. We understand the conclusion of criminal proceedings will not heal their broken hearts but we do hope that this brings them a step closer to closure and gives them a sense of relief.”
Dylan’s father – Gary Keenan said: “I would like to thank all my family and friends for the love and support they have offered, during what can only be described as the worst time in our lives. Dylan was cruelly taken away from us on New Years Eve in 2021 by the one person who was supposed to love and protect him. He will be missed every minute of every day, and we cannot put into words how difficult it’s been to endure the trial and to listen to how Dylan came to his death. We would like to thank Greater Manchester Police and the Crown Prosecution Service, who have been so supportive and guided us through the investigation and trial.”
