Man told his wife to order a coffin

A man was ordered to do anger management as he was given a suspended 18-month term yesterday for harassing his wife in 2015.

The accused told his wife at the height of a series of harassing and threatening calls that she should order a coffin for herself.

Patrick Carver, aged 44, of Bettyville, Kanturk, Co Cork, faced sentencing yesterday for harassing his wife, Nora Carver, in November 2015, and related charges when he appeared at Cork Circuit Criminal Court.
