Man admits sending Alan Shatter anti-Semitic emails

Dublin District Court heard Mr Shatter was left distressed and did not know what would happen next after he got persistent emails calling him a “perfidious Jew” and “Yiddish whore”.
The sender was John Dillon, aged 55, with an address at Whitethorn Gardens, Palmerstown, Dublin, who was suffering from depression, “went over the edge”, and began to act “quite manic” after a long-term relationship ended, Judge Anthony Halpin heard.
