i agree with Garron. but this has absolutley nothing to do with it. PEOPLE that don't have a TV license are judged based on that issue. What has that to do with attacking someone and how that is punished?
It's disgraceful what is happening in this country. The law depends on whom are the protected class, if you're not part of that class, they throw the book at you.
So a fella who beats the shit out of a woman gets a 3 Yr suspended sentence and a person who refuses to pay a tv licence is sent to prison who incidentally harmed no one. One time in Ireland if a guy done that to a woman there would be no hesitation in sending him to prison.

The same judge Tom O’Donnell, jailed a woman yesterday for kicking a pensioner, the judge said the victim might have had a heart attack….he also gave a suspended sentence to a man who carried out another DV attack, the judge is biased against women, I’m sure if we looked into his career, it would be very interesting. Also the DPP have a duty to victims here, the army should turf Crotty out with no pension, McEntee should do her fucking job also.
McEntee is the fucking problem she is more interested in these bs hatespeech law to frighten the Irish people into silence, we are damned if she gets that through.
These so called judges man. Why aren't they held to a higher standard? Are they even monitored or 'policed'? Remember a huge spate of sex offenders/ rapists getting piss poor so called sentences from the same judge for years? Strange eh. My point: If a judge constantly is proven to biased against certain persons are acts- shouldn't this be investigated as to why? Are we under the impression that judges are impartial. I think not. Some of these bitter angry ex-cunt cops are given these positions and we are led to believe that we will get justice. Heart goes out to that poor woman. Whats worse is that at the time of me writing this the DPP is 'investigating' this. They will investigate the crime not the judge.
Disgusting ruling from the judge. Women should be allowed carry mace in Ireland non lethal and gives them a chance to run. It should be made legal because our legal system doesnt protect women. Sentencing is a joke.
100% agree - I'm not a gun rights nut, but this is right to defend oneself will be increasingly more relevant. The number of scrotes running around now with the lack of policing. There was a guy who was asked to withdraw his statement for his own assault in Dublin because the Guards are too busy and it would "just paint a target on his back". If she had maced him and he was injured, she could go to jail for hurting him in this country. I hate this attitude we have on this.
The judges name is Tom O’Donnell. He is retiring in the coming days, according to today’s Irish Independent. It’s not clear if he retiring due to the protests or if he was going to retire anyway. All of his sentencing should be reviewed. Almost definite that this isn’t the first time that he was not on the side of the victim.
There's already another sentence by the same judge being questioned. Another military man who beat his former girlfriend up and got a fully suspended sentence
He is retiring in the next couple of weeks so he doesn't care. Shame on him for all the criminals he let go over the years , my thoughts are with their victims .
There's also another issue with the leniency here. She was standing up for others that were being targeted. This sentence (or lack of) makes people be bystander instead of speaking up.
No, it's alawys been the same. Ireland has always had the most lenient laws in the world for aggravated assault. Ireland recognizes the right of a person being spoken to poorly to give the person a punch and not get punished. If you ha é a pregnant wife and someone makes a lewd comment about her, in Ireland you have a god given right to snap a shovel over their back. You won't get punished. The problem for a bystander is of they enter the argument and go over and tell someone being abusive to others to shut up, they are now aggravating the original person. The person he was shouting abuse at had a right to knock him out or leave. A bystander has the right to either get ready to fight or stay out of it.. you should have learned as a kid how to stay on the right side of the law. If your friend is getting abusive shouts, you push them behind you and wait until you get shouted at too. Now you have been aggravated. You're only allowed be aggravated on behalf of family members getting abused. It's really really easy to navigate. I don't know where Irish people got the belief they can just interject in an argument and be aggravating to the side they don't like and have the cops chuck the person in jail. In this case you agree with her stance, but let's reverse it. A gay guy has been called a name, he's aggravated, he's shouting at a girl all sorts. I join in on the girls side, tell him to shut up. You saying he should have to do what I say? He shouldn't be allowed to stand his ground? Me as a bystander I can just join in and aggravate him more and it's fine? Do you see how this will end? He will go to jail if I get deeper and deeper involved in the argument?
reminds me of the Zero Tolerance bullying policy in the USA, suspending the victim as well as the bully. can't stand up for yourself at schools with that policy.
Shout out for the victim. 1st for standing against the homophobic slurs and then standing against the injustice of the sentencing. These Judges live in ivory towers so I hope this sends a strong signal to them. Im expecting an appeal from the DPP on the sentence and that he will get kicked out of the army.
Exactly. The government hear are all talk about justice and protection and shite but as soon as something happens then perpetrator gets a slap on the wrist
Misogyny within the judicial service. Women routinely treated as if they are being hysterical or exaggerating. The fact that the perp is a soldier makes it all the more frightening- as if that made the court more lenient, not less as should be.
Agree Garron. Aisling Murphy also comes to mind. She was murdered by a man who had a criminal record from another country of sexual assault but was let in and allowed to falsely claim disability allowance and murder her. It is not an eye for an eye. No justice
@@geordiewishart1683 Bro, work on your reading comprehension skills. She literally never said that. You're strawmanning and making up arguments in your head 😂 Besides, no-one cares what you have to say about this. The majority of violent criminals are men, and the majority of victims are women. So yes, this topic is especially upsetting for women. Go be a baby somewhere else.
Bravely said, and a lot of important things stated and explained, it's just intolerable and shocking, no, i'm glad you brought this to light, here here! Terri Leckner, Montreal
I completely agree 💯 "a sentence could ruin his career"?!? As if we should be aiding a violent man to continue as a soldier to "protect" people. He should be booted out. He's quite clearly shown his intentions of joining the defence force, and it's not for means of peacekeeping.
Disgraceful. We have had these sort of miscarriages of justice in the US too. Look up Brock Turner. He was a collegiate swimmer at a prestigious university who sexually assaulted an unconscious woman at a party. I believe he got a 3-month sentence as the judge felt that he had been through enough and didn’t want his life further impacted. Voters successfully repealed the judge and the woman he assaulted bravely spoke out about her ordeal. Thank you for using your platform to bring light to this case.
Thank you for highlighting this. It’s an absolute travesty of a situation that’s a sad indictment of the institutional misogyny that still pervades the “justice” system.
How can this case go back to court? I don’t know Irish law. In the US, you can’t be tried twice for the same charge. Perhaps there’s another act associated with the same incident that wasn’t addressed?
Very well said and classy not to name him. Thank you for speaking sense and reminding people that these 'Slaps on the wrist' are ridiculous, demeaning and dangerous.
Women know the truth: the world is far more concerned about a man's wasted potential, their career and reputation than it's concerned for a woman's *actual life*! Thank you for making an exception to your non-serious content to bring attention to something so important!
nah its not though. i can think of one case from a few years ago where a girl raped some guy while holding a machete to his neck but the judge left her off because she was studying to be a lawyer and she had a promising career. im sure if you spent any time looking you would find plenty of cases where its not just the world always taking sides with the man
Well put. I've noticed this kind of appalling behaviour here in Sweden, too. My mum was assaulted on her way to her doctor by a group of teenagers. One of them tried to get her to fall off her bike. In broad daylight. I've witnessed disgraceful and threatening behaviour from and confronted little shites like these (they're always so tough when they're in a group) more than once. I'm sick of it.
When an issue is this serious and even has Garron feeling compelled to make a serious video you know the people are not going to stand for it. Fair play to you Garron, to all the public kicking up a stink about this daft ruling and of course to Natasha O'Brien who is an absolute legend of a woman.
This judge also let free 3 teens who beat a homeless man on cctv and then robbed him of the little he had. Same judge gave a man who had raped a baby and filmed it 4 years in prison (with 133 previous convictions)
Well done, Delighted to see you talk about this. Your 100% right. Its a complete disgrace and joke that that scumbag was not jailed and the judge needs his head examined! This decision has to be appealed and overturned!
Garron, while your humor is always lovely and lightens our day…using your platform for no hole’s barred advocacy, is noble and so very much appreciated. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
It's all a psyop to bring in more laws. Why is this only coming out now...why is there no camera footage of the incident as everyone has camera phones. The next this she will probably get running for presidency.
It's know for years what caliber of so called men are in the army,a large percentage of them have a horrible reputation, alot of them treat women like dirt in one way or another
This is the exact kind of person who has a high risk for war crimes. Imagine if he was in a foreign country with a rifle and the power to potentially kill civilians.
Well said Garron, it has shocked the nation and am glad to see men, proper men, calling this out. Father to daughters myself, DPP has to appeal the sentence, in the nations interest.
It shouldn't have shocked us, this normal. Tourists get beaten up. Young women get maimed. LGBT people get chased by knife wielding teens... Irish judges are incredibly soft on violent criminals.
The leniency comes from the government trying to protect the foreign people who are the ones who are committing the most violent crimes… same in England and of course the rest of Europe. The prisons are now bursting with people who were not born in Europe or have parents that were not born here. This may have been committed by a white person and Irish native but the leniency is mainly to protect the newcomers as they are becoming an embarrassment to the Lefties. Rather than admit the problem they are pretending it isn’t happening…. Of course this means we all suffer a lawless society.
One has to wonder why this judge let him off? This has to be sorted. Why why why was he not imprisoned???? Fuck his job. He is guilty. Go to prison. What is happening to our country? Thanks Garron. You are right...
The judge should share the cell with him. Why did nt the lads that he was in company with try and stop him? They are just as guilty. Thank you Garron, if only the rest was as gentleman as you we could all walk the streetd in peace.
This judge is as vile as the person who carried out this attack, he should be sacked from his role as its clear he is incompetent and devoid of empathy. Everyone deserves to be safe from these disgusting and inhuman people. Thinking of Natasha, her bravery and of all innocent victims of violence.
Good man Garron. Well said and what an amazing young woman Natasha is. She makes me proud to be Irish. I hope the country really gets behind her and sends a strong signal to those who think violence and intimidation are in any way acceptable forms of behaviour. The whole sentencing thing reminded me of the Michael Flynn murder case back in the early 80s when a group of young men homophonically attacked and killed a 31 year old gay man. They were all given suspended sentences. Two of those guys were in the defence forces as well, but the Air Corp had the good sense to chuck them out. One of them later went on to rape a pregnant woman, breaking into her home when her husband was at work and giving her the option of being raped or being kicked in the stomach. That was a shameful moment from our past. This simply has to be a watershed moment where we draw a line and say no more. No one should have to live in fear in modern Ireland. Women are well able to speak for themselves, but maybe as men, more of us need to step up and tell other men that violence and disrespect for others is beneath contempt and we're not having it. If any movement gets going behind Natasha, I'm definitely willing to chuck a few quid in, march, hold a banner, whatever it takes.
I'm not Irish*, but good on you for recognizing that it's men who need to work with other men to change the culture of misogyny where violence against women is seen as an option. This video introduced me to the case, and yes, Natasha is an absolute credit to you.
I'm not Irish, but good on you for recognizing that it's men who need to work with other men to change the culture of misogyny where violence against women is seen as an option. You and Garron exemplify what it is to be an ally to women: not patronizing us with the idea we need to be protected, but addressing the fact that women shouldn't walk in fear and why we are forced to be vigilant. This video introduced me to the case, and yes, Natasha is an absolute credit to you.
It’s not the new .. it’s the ‘same old, same old’ we’ve been fighting. It’s just that strong empathetic men like Garron have a forum to call it out now. He’s brilliant 🎉
This sentence needs to be put up for review for undue leniency, within 28 days of the ruling to the Court of Appeals. Agreed! This sentence is horribly disrespectful to Natasha O’Brien and puts the public at risk.
Thanks Garron, and very well said. Unfortunately our courts in Canada seem equally lop sided as well. Its great to hear such a logical and unbiased breakdown of the situation as you put it. As the old saying goes "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing" Thanks again. Ps. Love the humour!!
Didn’t knew about it and, as a woman, sadly not surprised. Yea we don’t want that kind of upstanding citizen to loose a job where he *check notes* has to carry a gun.
It happens here in Australia too, a lot! The amount of domestic violence here by repeat offenders is ridiculous. Thank you for standing up & saying that these people should be accountable for their bad behaviour.🙏
@@karenmcc2197 Don't be ashamed of being Irish. I don't believe every Irish person is like those who cause problems. I don't even know that much about Ireland except that it's culture and music are something I have been interested in, especially since I have Irish blood in me. I love to visit Ireland and get to know people there and more of the Irish culture. I have been interested in also writing stories based on the culture of the Emerald Coast, so I'm not gonna start any accusations. Be proud of being Irish. I doubt all of Ireland are the same and I'd rather not judge everyone just because someone there did something most of us all over the world wouldn't be proud of in the first place. I'm sending you universal blessings and a hug. Don't worry about me, because I believe most of us are sane people no matter how chaotic the world may seem.
Thank you for speaking out about what happened to Natasha. What happened to her is a travesty. Fair play to you for talking about the violent, predatory behaviour that seems to get nothing more than a finger wag from the Irish justice system while victims are left paying the price. Well done.
It’s unbelievable how crimes like this go unpunished, but it’s probably down to them wanting to clear backlogs of cases by trying to close them without going to trial. Bloody disgraceful, I hope Natasha gets the justice she deserves
I don't think you understand. The offender pled guilty. There was no trial. The only court time taken up was in passing sentence. It would have been the same time used if the judge had imprisoned the assailant. Maybe you should take time to think before you just criticise?
@@geordiewishart1683 I think you must know the offender, or even are him! You have written a fair few comments arguing with what people are commenting. It's a pity you'll never feel the threat women feel!!! Cop on.

Garron, while your humor is always lovely and lightens our day…using your platform for no hole’s barred advocacy, is noble and so very much appreciated. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
He needs to be in prison! He's not fit for duty his honor doesn't exist 😢
Well done, G. Use your voice to speak out. Ireland is being destroyed before my very eyes. I'm heartsick.
Thank you for saying what needs to be said, Garron
It’s a fuckin disgrace. And the fact that he’s allowed to wear the uniform is shocking.
It's all a psyop to bring in more laws. Why is this only coming out now...why is there no camera footage of the incident as everyone has camera phones. The next this she will probably get running for presidency.
It's know for years what caliber of so called men are in the army,a large percentage of them have a horrible reputation, alot of them treat women like dirt in one way or another
This is the exact kind of person who has a high risk for war crimes. Imagine if he was in a foreign country with a rifle and the power to potentially kill civilians.
Well said Garron, it has shocked the nation and am glad to see men, proper men, calling this out. Father to daughters myself, DPP has to appeal the sentence, in the nations interest.
It shouldn't have shocked us, this normal. Tourists get beaten up. Young women get maimed. LGBT people get chased by knife wielding teens... Irish judges are incredibly soft on violent criminals.
The judge should be brought up on charges…. And relived of his position as a judge!
Good man,thanks for saying this,love you ❤
Thank you Garron for speaking up to your country for justice. Love ya! CR
Unacceptable is an understatement. Sadly, this is everyday here in America. 💔 Prayers to Natasha🙏🏻 Well stated Garron.
Well said Garron. The suspended sentence was/is completely unacceptable.
This guy will do this again, such a shameful non sentence..
Unfortunately 😢
Well said Garron Justice for the victims!!
Garron thanks..thank you because to hear a male voice supporting the women of Ireland it really deos mean alot xx
So I take it you couldn't have cared less if the victim were a man?
@@geordiewishart1683 what are you a dose. How on earth did you come up with that Jesus Christ reading comprehension is a must
The leniency comes from the government trying to protect the foreign people who are the ones who are committing the most violent crimes… same in England and of course the rest of Europe. The prisons are now bursting with people who were not born in Europe or have parents that were not born here. This may have been committed by a white person and Irish native but the leniency is mainly to protect the newcomers as they are becoming an embarrassment to the Lefties. Rather than admit the problem they are pretending it isn’t happening…. Of course this means we all suffer a lawless society.
@@geordiewishart1683 There you are again. Go home will ya.
I00 % agreed in what you said , well done 👏
BRAVO! Awesome, Garron. TCB. 🌈🍀😎🏳⚧🏳🌈
Well done Garron, he should get prison ...
One has to wonder why this judge let him off? This has to be sorted. Why why why was he not imprisoned???? Fuck his job. He is guilty. Go to prison. What is happening to our country? Thanks Garron. You are right...
The judge is up for retirement soon
@@DavidKenny-nm1qySo fuckin what? Give me his name and I’ll sort this out
@philipmckeon8944 it's in the news paper lol
I wonder how the judge woul feel if it was his daughter.@DavidKenny-nm1qy
It’s very strange how the judge has let him go.
So is there more to this story.
I can’t believe no sentence
As a female ,I thank you ❤
You're 💯 correct. The judge and the scumbag should be in jail together!
I truly adore you, Garron. You're the best of us and I love that you say it like it is and stand up for what's right.
The judge should share the cell with him.
Why did nt the lads that he was in company with try and stop him? They are just as guilty.
Thank you Garron, if only the rest was as gentleman as you we could all walk the streetd in peace.
Exactly Garron. There needs to be an audit on criminals loose on our streets. The law is a complete, indisputable, whopping ass.
Thank you, Garron. 🙌🙌🙌
Thank you for speaking out, Garron.
So important that you speak out! I am shocked about how Ireland have handled this. This needs to be known world over!
No, sorry now this isn't Ireland, this is an out of touch judge, don't pull the country into it
This judge is as vile as the person who carried out this attack, he should be sacked from his role as its clear he is incompetent and devoid of empathy. Everyone deserves to be safe from these disgusting and inhuman people.
Thinking of Natasha, her bravery and of all innocent victims of violence.
100% agree. My heart breaks for this girl.
Good man Garron. Well said and what an amazing young woman Natasha is. She makes me proud to be Irish. I hope the country really gets behind her and sends a strong signal to those who think violence and intimidation are in any way acceptable forms of behaviour. The whole sentencing thing reminded me of the Michael Flynn murder case back in the early 80s when a group of young men homophonically attacked and killed a 31 year old gay man. They were all given suspended sentences. Two of those guys were in the defence forces as well, but the Air Corp had the good sense to chuck them out. One of them later went on to rape a pregnant woman, breaking into her home when her husband was at work and giving her the option of being raped or being kicked in the stomach. That was a shameful moment from our past. This simply has to be a watershed moment where we draw a line and say no more. No one should have to live in fear in modern Ireland. Women are well able to speak for themselves, but maybe as men, more of us need to step up and tell other men that violence and disrespect for others is beneath contempt and we're not having it. If any movement gets going behind Natasha, I'm definitely willing to chuck a few quid in, march, hold a banner, whatever it takes.
🥰 me, too. Thank you.
I'm not Irish*, but good on you for recognizing that it's men who need to work with other men to change the culture of misogyny where violence against women is seen as an option. This video introduced me to the case, and yes, Natasha is an absolute credit to you.
I'm not Irish, but good on you for recognizing that it's men who need to work with other men to change the culture of misogyny where violence against women is seen as an option. You and Garron exemplify what it is to be an ally to women: not patronizing us with the idea we need to be protected, but addressing the fact that women shouldn't walk in fear and why we are forced to be vigilant. This video introduced me to the case, and yes, Natasha is an absolute credit to you.
You are the bee's knees, Garron. Thank you for always using your platform for good proving that you are, in fact, delicious! ❤
Thank you Garron, nothing will change unless men call out their own for this type of thing. Well done, your delicious 😃
You forgot that he bragged about it! He should not be allowed to continue in the army, and he should go to jail, charged with assault. What shite.
Nah, he mentioned that but too: the bit about Snapchat.
The new country we live in. Good for you garron for bringing this to our attention. We love you.
It’s not the new .. it’s the ‘same old, same old’ we’ve been fighting. It’s just that strong empathetic men like Garron have a forum to call it out now. He’s brilliant 🎉
Enjoy all your funny work. This is so important, thank you for speaking out about this. He’s a total evil scumbag. Sack him and imprison him ASAP
Well said Garron, impressed with you for speaking out so powerfully !
This sentence needs to be put up for review for undue leniency, within 28 days of the ruling to the Court of Appeals. Agreed! This sentence is horribly disrespectful to Natasha O’Brien and puts the public at risk.
Thanks Garron, and very well said. Unfortunately our courts in Canada seem equally lop sided as well. Its great to hear such a logical and unbiased breakdown of the situation as you put it. As the old saying goes "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing" Thanks again. Ps. Love the humour!!
Thanks Garron. This means alot. Sometimes we have to be serious about justice and truth .
Didn’t knew about it and, as a woman, sadly not surprised. Yea we don’t want that kind of upstanding citizen to loose a job where he *check notes* has to carry a gun.
It happens here in Australia too, a lot! The amount of domestic violence here by repeat offenders is ridiculous. Thank you for standing up & saying that these people should be accountable for their bad behaviour.🙏
My heart goes out to Ireland.
Thank you. We need it. 💚
Ashamed to be Irish 😢
@@karenmcc2197 Don't be ashamed of being Irish. I don't believe every Irish person is like those who cause problems. I don't even know that much about Ireland except that it's culture and music are something I have been interested in, especially since I have Irish blood in me. I love to visit Ireland and get to know people there and more of the Irish culture. I have been interested in also writing stories based on the culture of the Emerald Coast, so I'm not gonna start any accusations. Be proud of being Irish. I doubt all of Ireland are the same and I'd rather not judge everyone just because someone there did something most of us all over the world wouldn't be proud of in the first place. I'm sending you universal blessings and a hug. Don't worry about me, because I believe most of us are sane people no matter how chaotic the world may seem.
@@karenmcc2197. Eeeh,,? Why??
@@karenmcc2197. I'm very very proud to be Irish...☘️
Thank you for speaking out about what happened to Natasha. What happened to her is a travesty. Fair play to you for talking about the violent, predatory behaviour that seems to get nothing more than a finger wag from the Irish justice system while victims are left paying the price. Well done.
Well said darling, well said. ❤
Thanks!
Thank you!!
US here: Totally agree with you; what a total pos who should have been sentenced to jail. This guy is going to continue with this violent behavior.
It’s unbelievable how crimes like this go unpunished, but it’s probably down to them wanting to clear backlogs of cases by trying to close them without going to trial. Bloody disgraceful, I hope Natasha gets the justice she deserves
I don't think you understand.
The offender pled guilty.
There was no trial.
The only court time taken up was in passing sentence.
It would have been the same time used if the judge had imprisoned the assailant.
Maybe you should take time to think before you just criticise?
@@geordiewishart1683 I think you must know the offender, or even are him! You have written a fair few comments arguing with what people are commenting. It's a pity you'll never feel the threat women feel!!! Cop on.
@@geordiewishart1683there was a trial smart man,crotty testified,so did the victim,so did a commandant from the army plus other character witnesses,or maybe you don't know what a trial is.
@@geordiewishart1683I hope everything is OK
Absolutely he should be in prison, but the thing that really shocked me is that he didn't even lose his job. Why on earth should he be able to continue to be in the army after this? He clearly can't be trusted to wield any amount of power or authority. Thanks for the video!
So he can violate human rights wherever he is stationed.
