Cases
latest first- Longford man escapes conviction over public order and name charges Public order; failing to give name to a Garda · Co. Longford
Jonahan Wykes, 43, of Lisnanagh, Edgeworthstown, Longford, was with another man at a ghost estate at Lisavaddy, near Carriglass, at 2am on 22 April 2022 when Garda Foley asked them for their names and addresses. Wykes refused three times, became verbally abusive, and put his head into the Garda's face. He pleaded guilty to a breach of public order and failing to give his name to a Garda at Longford District Court. Judge Owens dealt with the failing to give information charge under Section 1.2 of the Probation Act and took the public order charge into consideration, so no conviction was recorded. As part of conditions attached to his suspended Circuit Court sentence, Wykes must engage with probation services for 18 months after his release.
