latest first- Protester spared conviction for intimidating TD at Leinster House Intimidation · Co. Dublin
Dean Hickson, a 22-year-old man, was alleged to have thrown a plastic bottle at and blocked TD Michael Healy-Rae, 57, during an anti-government and anti-immigration protest outside Leinster House on 20 September 2023. Gardaí identified Hickson from CCTV footage and charged him in February 2024 under the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act. He pleaded guilty at Dublin District Court in April 2024 and was ordered to complete a restorative justice programme. In February 2025, the court applied the Probation of Offenders Act, sparing him a criminal conviction after he completed the programme.
