Áras bomb threat woman pleads guilty to harassing priest
Anne Fennell, aged 57, of Monastery Gate Green, Clondalkin, yesterday pleaded guilty at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court to two counts of harassing Fr Desmond Byrne by any means including telephone at Woodford Drive, Clondalkin on October 8, 2006 and between October 5, 2005 and January 10, 2006.
Last week, Fennell had her sentence for sending obscene phone messages adjourned so she could continue with psychological therapy. The court heard on one occasion Anne Fennell had referred to President Higgins as a “ladyboy” and on another told the receptionist “the President and Sabrina Higgins would go home in plastic bags if they set foot on English soil”.
