'Give up yer aul sins': woman who tasered official repossessing her home taken into custody
Stage: Sentence
Finding: Convicted
Outcome: Convicted; Lisa Temple (56) was today given a one-year suspended sentence in Dublin Circuit Criminal Court, but she refused to enter into a bond to be of good behaviour. As a result, Judge Martin Nolan said she should be taken into custody, telling her: "No-one is above the law, including you, Ms Temple." He said he didn't want to send Temple to prison and told her he was trying to impose a non-custodial sentence. "And I'm trying to tell you to give up yer aul sins," Temple replied.
