Cases
latest first- Three-month suspended sentence for giving false name to Gardaí in Leitrim court Obstruction of a peace officer (giving false name to Gardaí) · Co. Leitrim
Sean O'Reilly, a 32-year-old man from Dublin, gave Gardaí the false name Craig Bennett during a traffic stop on the N4 on 16 June 2024 at around 11.20pm. Garda Michelle Burk stopped the grey Toyota Corolla in which he was the front passenger because its tax had expired. At Carrick-on-Shannon District Court on 29 June 2025, he pleaded guilty to obstruction, and Judge Michael Connellan imposed a three-month prison sentence suspended for 12 months, conditional on keeping the peace and being of good behaviour. The sentence was reported on 2 July 2025, and it was his second conviction for the same offence.
