Cases
latest first- McElhatton sentenced for assault causing harm in Dublin Assault causing harm · Co. Dublin
Jackie McElhatton, a 51-year-old woman, was sentenced at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court on 21 October 2026 for assault causing harm after punching a woman in her 20s on the forehead at Marlborough Street, Dublin 1, on the afternoon of 28 January 2025. McElhatton approached the victim, a student doctor attending exams, shouting at her and asking where she was from before punching her while wearing a ring. Gardaí identified McElhatton from a video recorded by the victim's friend, and she entered a very early guilty plea. The judge imposed a two-year sentence suspended in full with two years' probation supervision, to run from the expiry of a one-year consecutive sentence, noting the attack had troubling racial aspects.
