Cases
latest first- Man sentenced for obstructing a garda on bus in Kildare Obstruction of a garda · Co. Kildare
John McDonagh, a 26-year-old man from Ballymun, Dublin, was sentenced to a 30-day term at Naas District Court in March 2023 for obstructing a garda. He became intoxicated and abusive to passengers on a Dublin-to-Galway bus on 24 September 2021 near Kilcock, Kildare, and refused to provide his personal details. Multiple gardaí were required to remove him from the bus, and pepper spray was used. He was arrested at 3pm that day, entered prison on 15 November 2022, and appeared by videolink for sentencing, where he apologised and attributed his behaviour to an addiction to alcohol and prescription drugs.

In the early hours of 28 January 2020, John McDonagh, a 27-year-old man, and a teenage accomplice broke into a house at Glencarrig, Ballinode, Sligo, and threatened four occupants with a knife before causing extensive criminal damage. Both men pleaded guilty to aggravated burglary and burglary, and Judge Francis Comerford at Sligo Circuit Criminal Court sentenced them in March 2021 to five-and-a-half years with the final two years suspended for three. The Court of Appeal in Dublin quashed that sentence in July 2022 and substituted seven years with the final 18 months suspended for two years, backdated to 1 August 2020. The teenage accomplice has since died.
