Persistent offender jailed for three months over string of offences
Stage: Sentence
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: Judge Fottrell imposed a three-month custodial sentence, backdated to June 2, saying the offending was serious and persistent. When Ms Crowley asked the court to accept €400 in cash from Greene's family in lieu of an independent surety as part of his recognisance, Judge Fottrell refused, insisting on an independent surety and remarking: "This is a revolving situation here."
