Lauryn McCann was jailed for two and a half years at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court, reported on 4 November 2022, for corruptly agreeing to accept an inducement to access Garda intelligence.

She also pleaded guilty to obtaining and disclosing Garda intelligence files to a third party, with that charge taken into consideration.

McCann sent around 70 photographs of Pulse system information to an individual known to Gardaí over a week in May 2020.

The judge said she had searched for information useful to a third party and described the offence as serious.
