Mother and son face jail terms

At Kilrush District Court, Judge Patrick Durcan jailed Susan O’Sullivan, aged 44, of Moore St, Kilrush, Co Clare, for 14 days after he heard that she kicked and scraped at a garda and pulled off his hat outside court.
Judge Patrick Durcan said “complete mayhem” had occurred as a result of the incident involving Mrs O’Sullivan and her son, Patrick Whynne, aged 18, and suspended court business for five minutes as a result.
