  1. >Zara McCabe’s victim died by suicide a week later

    She probably came from a good/bad family.

  2. She should go to prison and not do community service what is this?? Guy was homeless so he dont matter?

  3. >She has 21 previous convictions including assault, threats, intoxication in a public place and road traffic offences

    Of course she does…
    Why the fuck wouldn’t she be out in the community getting drunk and beating people up again… Makes perfect sense.

    This bitch needs to go to prison.

  4. Beat him up, went through his pockets, accused him of rape and the judge says “If you do this again, you’ll go to jail”

    A man killed himself because of this.

    I don’t think we’ll see any big public statements about this however. Hope she follows him, scum.

  5. What an absolute scumbag. Went through his pockets to find his phone so she could take a photo to show her sister is about the biggest load of bollocks I’ve heard in a while. Oh, and was it judge Nolan? Yep, judge Nolan.

  6. That judge loves scum. Hopefully he suffers the same as the victims did. We’ll see how keen is is to hand out 84th chances then.

  7. “You are getting a considerable chance,” Judge Nolan told McCabe.

    “She has 21 previous convictions including assault, threats, intoxication in a public place and road traffic offences.”

    Something tells me she might not make the most of that chance.

  8. Are you for real. Swap the genders for a second and play out the sentence. Gender equality works both ways. Fuck that. Assault is assault.

  9. Person gets drunk, accusing a man of rape, then she beats the shit out of thus person then he kills himself

    21 previous convictions

    Community services and she’s “on an upward curve”

    Get fucked. No doubt if the homeless man had done the reverse to her he’d be doing 15 years!

  10. Judge Nolan of course. Does he wake up every morning and think “How can I be a massive cunt today?”

  11. I’m sorry now but wtf . Surely the bubble is ready to burst with all these shitty people being allowed walk out scot free for crimes against others. I feel these judges are completely holding the doors open for a lawless, dangerous, unrestrained and uncontrollable sub-culture in Ireland riddled with anti-social behaviour. This is something people should really get out and protest about. Fuck taking these bullshit sob-stories and making criminals into the victims in court.

  12. From @ courtsnewsIRL on twitter –

    McCabe told gardaí that she hoped she had killed the man during the assault, which had lasted 30 minutes. “I had a blade. I would have killed him. He is a rapist,” she told officers.

    Absolutely brutal.

    There’s been a spate of assaults and attempted assaults recently (not a recent trend, but the attacks themselves seem to be getting more aggravated). Nolan had a chance to send a message to any would be attackers with his sentencing here, and absolutely fucked it up.

    The first 22 charges are just a slap on the wrist it seems, 23 is a step too far

  13. What really boils my piss about this article is that we are not even told his name.

    “A homeless man”, “the victim”.

    I am sure this poor unfortunate cunt had a name, and a life before he was assaulted and killed himself because of the actions of this evil bitch.

    Obligatory, fuck that pedo sympathiser judge Nolan.

  14. Well if they’re not going to use the prison cells, at least rent them out as studio apartments.
