In December 2015, a High Court judge ordered the Garda to abandon an investigation into Garda Keith Harrison over an allegation that he intimidated his partner. Harrison denied the allegation.

The proceedings were reported on 6 October 2016.

While serving in Athlone in 2009, Harrison unsuccessfully prosecuted a colleague for alleged drink driving, despite opposition from senior officers. He claimed he was subsequently subjected to bullying, harassment and unprecedented scrutiny. The report said he faced 16 claims of breaches of discipline, four of which were upheld.

This case may have concluded differently. The outcome has not yet been confirmed by a public source we could find.
