Cases
latest first- Gavin Cooke jailed for eight years for burglary of south Dublin home Burglary · Co. Dublin
Three men wearing balaclavas forced their way into a house in Clondalkin, Dublin 22, on 29 May 2017, where one man grabbed the homeowner and brandished a metal bar while demanding cash, and she handed over her purse containing €50 cash, cards and personal items while her two daughters hid. Gavin Cooke, 48, of Clondalkin, was identified through CCTV footage showing him and a co-accused at the scene, and the Volvo registered to him was found with the co-accused driving it around 3am the following morning. Cooke pleaded guilty to burglary after the charge was amended from aggravated burglary on a trial date. On 20 May 2026, Judge Elma Sheahan sentenced him to eight years' imprisonment to run consecutively to his current sentence, which carries an earliest release date of July 2027.
