Gregory McAuley had his community-service sentence replaced with a custodial sentence by the Court of Appeal on 12 December 2017 for assaulting a Garda.

The sentence followed an attack on a Garda attending an address in Kilbarrack, Dublin, to assist McAuley’s daughter.

The court allowed the Director of Public Prosecutions’ application after finding the original sentence unduly lenient.
