Summary

Glenn Jordan, a 42‑year‑old sales executive, stole more than €33,000 worth of iPads from MJ Flood, claiming they were ordered by the IT department at Beaumont Hospital. He created two fake orders, intercepted the delivery, took the devices and sold them. Jordan later admitted a gambling addiction and that he was out of his depth. He has since repaid the company. In Dublin Circuit Criminal Court, he pleaded guilty to three counts of theft between March and May 2017. Judge Martin Nolan adjourned the case to February next year, ordering a probation report to assess Jordan's suitability for community service rather than an immediate custodial sentence. The court noted Jordan had no prior convictions and had been employed by MJ Flood since November 2016, with his employment terminated in May 2017 due to performance issues. The prosecution highlighted that Jordan had admitted his wrongdoing and reimbursed the company.
