latest first- Teen sentenced to 18 months for violent disorder in Limerick Violent disorder · Co. Limerick
A 15-year-old boy, now 17 and unnamed due to reporting restrictions, admitted being part of a three-man gang that kicked and punched 39-year-old homeless man Declan Quinlivan 109 times and robbed him of his phone, cigarettes and cash at Wickham Street, Limerick City, around 5am on 8 May 2022. The boy was arrested in October 2022 after attending Roxboro Road Garda Station by appointment, while co-accused Aaron Holland, then 17, was arrested five months after the attack. The boy entered a signed plea to one count of violent disorder at Limerick Circuit Criminal Court on 30 October 2024 and was remanded on bail because no beds were available at Oberstown Children's Detention Campus. On 4 November 2024, Judge Colin Daly sentenced him to 18 months detention, reduced from a headline five years, while Aaron Holland had received a fully suspended two-year sentence in June 2024.
