‘Appalling’ theft of ex-girlfriend’s wig

At Ennis District Court, Judge Patrick Durcan jailed Paul Carr, aged 41, of Cluain Airne, Shannon, Co Clare, after describing as “appalling” his act of removing the wig from the head of his former girlfriend, 38, and making off with it during a dispute.
Solicitor for Mr Carr, Tara Godfrey, admitted in court “it was a particularly nasty offence in a particular context” but that Mr Carr apologises unreservedly and continues to hold his ex-girlfriend in the highest of regard.
