• Man sentenced for threatening to kill garda in Dublin Threat to kill a garda; production of a knife · Co. Dublin

  Liam Byrne, a 41-year-old man from North Wall, Dublin, pleaded guilty to making a threat to kill a woman garda and production of a knife after confronting officers at his mother's home in Mariners Court, North Wall, on 22 June 2022. Armed with a wooden pole and a large knife, Byrne threatened to stab the gardaí and threw furniture down the stairs before the armed support unit was called and he was arrested. Judge Nolan accepted that Byrne had threatened violence but had not used actual violence on the officers, and noted his history of drug addiction following the discovery of his murdered father in 2000. On 31 January 2023, Byrne was sentenced to 20 months' custody.
