CCTV captures violent assault after stabbing

CCTV fixed to two private houses in Limerick, one occupied by a couple previously targeted by the Criminal Assets Bureau, captured a series of violent incidents in which a gun was fired and a golf club, a crutch, and a curtain pole were used as weapons.

Judge Tom O’Donnell said it was very unusual to have a case in which he was told CCTV had backed up statements 100% regarding what had occurred.

Brendan Wallace, aged 55, and Patricia Wallace, aged 44, of Fernleigh, Westbury, Corbally, Limerick, pleaded guilty at Limerick Circuit Court to 10 charges arising from the incident.
