      This guy threatened to share images if the girl didn’t meet him for sex. She informed the Gardai and one met him, posing as her. He attacked this Gard in an “exceptionally violent” manner, punching and kicking her in the head.

      “In her 20 year career she had never encountered such aggression before”

      And he gets a suspended sentence?

      He should get death the scumbag.

      People will serve prison for much lesser crimes

      Aren’t they literally running an ad campaign at the moment about how threatening to share intimate pictures is a crime?
      They need to update them to reflect that it’s not really that bad, a little bold but you can throw assaulting a garda in on top of it and still walk out of court no problem.

      Attempted sexual extortion and assault of a Garda, fully suspended sentence…

      Make crime illegal

      I’m gonna guess Judge Nolan… then gonna read the article.

      We need to build a prison asap and punish people who break the law. Too many are committing crimes and then continuing on as normal

    7. Smiley_Dub on

      No – a suspended sentence is too lenient here.

      Shame on him

      Well done to the victim on speaking up 👏👏👏

      Good news is we can look forward to a fresh new government with a fresh new energy to tackle serious issues like this…. 🙄

      I’d say 9 out of 10 times that I’ve read about a woman getting beaten/abused by a man in the last few years they have all got a suspended sentence. Does the woman have to die for a conviction these days? Surely, there has to be a better punishment than a suspended sentence and a fine

      News Flash: Real story, there are no prison spaces, therefore he can not be jailed.

    11. Nickthegreek28 on

      Id have no problem if the guards grabbed this guy and gave him the hiding of his life

    12. Limp-Chapter-5288 on

      Genuine question is there going to be more prisons spaces added to the system or can people just do whatever they want for the foreseeable ?

      I’d say the judges are banging their heads against a wall because they are being made look like thicks day in day out.

      The Irish justice system shows their contempt for women at every opportunity.

      This is not good enough

    14. smashNdashed on

      Absolutely insane that this freak will not see a prison cell. Horrific stuff

    15. sthside99 on

      This won’t be the last we hear of this loser, I guarantee it

      > Vilanstown

      The bag guy is from vilanstown?

      > A forensic psychological assessment put Seery’s risk of further sexual offence in the medium range, based on his current status, but found it could increase if he began drinking heavily again.

      So he gets a suspended sentence?

    17. garcia1723 on

      This story just got worse the more I read. What’s the point in the current ads on the radio? Sharing images and saying it’s an offence if you can go three steps further, assault a garda, and still not get jail time. Joke of a legal system.

    18. ResponsibleTrain1059 on

      I wonder how much Dept of Justice spent on that “sharing intimate photos without permission is illegal” ad campaign

    19. hopefulatwhatido on

      A wannabe rapist and murder, an actual flight risk who attacked a guard given suspended sentencing is a joke. Any other western country you’re looking at serious prison time. He shouldn’t be allowed to be free for the safety of others, especially women.

    20. Why the fuck is it any business or factor to a judge about how many cells we have free. Fuck off with this shit.

    21. Attention_WhoreH3 on

      Isn’t there a TV add currently that reminds how this is a serious criminal offence? 

    22. TorpleFunder on

      >Mitigating factors were his young age, remorse, lack of previous convictions, and guilty plea. The judge said it was out of character for the accused and an aberration. Seery was from a good family, and following apprehension, he accepted the offences were malicious, furnished letters of apology to his victim, and expressed shame. The court heard he worked part-time, was on a film production course, and engaging with his doctor and counselling, which needs to continue, and he has quit binge drinking. The court noted he had been recently diagnosed with autism, and that this diagnosis would assist him in getting help to reduce his risk of reoffending. The judge learned from the accused’s father that Seery had issues from childhood, suffered a mental breakdown in his teens, and “was in a dark place for years”. Incarceration would be a setback for his progress, the judge held.

      What a load of shit. His solicitor really knew how to play this softie of a judge. Doesn’t matter what your sob story is, if you commit violent and sexual crimes you should be off the streets. Make him do his counseling in prison where he can’t attack more women.

    23. Informal-Set-3851 on

      Not a very common surname. What do his wider family and their associates think of this?

    24. ItalianRimBreaks on

      I have absolutely no doubt this fella finds himself outside of a prison because of his or his families relationship with the powers that be. The story and the consequences literally stink of this shit

    25. Money_Song467 on

      This is where it gets dodgy if it wasn’t already, I know someone whose ex was constantly threatening to post intimate pictures.

      That’s a seriously dangerous tool to manipulate someone with. It’s incredibly coercive and can make going to the Gardai seem pointless in solving the immediate threat.

      Absolutely disgusting how widespread this has become.

    26. gary_desanto on

      The irony is staggering.

      The fact that there is a huge national ad campaign currently being run SPECIFICALLY about how sharing intimate content without permission is illegal and will be met with consequences, and this guy gets off with a suspended sentence just shows how much of a joke we are as a country.

      Just absolutely shameful stuff.

    27. Justa_Schmuck on

      So much for all the ads about how serious this is meant to be taken. What a farce.

    28. Minions-overlord on

      Typical bullshit. Not only are the courts losing what little faith the public had of them, but the gards are going to rapidly lose faith in them completely, too.

      Custodial sentences for serious offences need to become a regular thing, with more prisons built to house the scum. The fact that there are little to no consequences for being a scumbag means it will just be a continuous circle

    29. Augustus_Chevismo on

      There needs to be mass protests to make crime illegal in Ireland.
