    Claudia Boyle, a 27-year-old woman from Longford, was charged with assaulting Mary Kelly and engaging in threatening and abusive behaviour on Dublin Road, Longford, on 18 January 2022. At Longford District Court in March 2023, the court heard that Boyle used foul language before pulling on Kelly's ponytail during an exchange of words.

The matter was adjourned to 9 May 2023 to allow Boyle time to arrange the donation.

  • 84-year-old woman sentenced to 10 months for animal cruelty in Laois Animal cruelty · Co. Laois

    On 5 May 2022, ISPCA inspectors found seven dogs in poor conditions at a rural home in Ballylinan, Co Laois, including one tied to a chair and another in a cat carrier with no food or water. Mary Kelly, an 84-year-old woman, was convicted on two counts of animal cruelty at Athy District Court. She had previously faced similar charges on two occasions and was under a court order prohibiting her from owning any animal. The judge imposed five-month sentences on each count to run consecutively, totalling 10 months, and Kelly lodged an appeal against the sentence, being released on a bond of €500. All animals were taken and have since been rehoused.
