Commissioner expected to deliver personal apology to Majella Moynihan
Garda Commissioner Drew Harris is to deliver a personal apology to Majella Moynihan, who was threatened with dismissal from An Garda Síochana for having pre-marital sex with another garda recruit and for giving birth to a baby out of wedlock.
Ms Moynihan had two charges preferred against her in 1984 for conduct “prejudicial to discipline or likely to bring discredit on the Force”, namely that she had sex with a garda recruit out of wedlock and became pregnant and secondly, that she “gave birth to a child out of wedlock”. The father of her child was fined £90.
