Human waste ‘new low’ in dispute

20-year feud between Kerry neighbours ‘spiralling’, says judge Circuit Civil Court, Killarney.

In a dispute between neighbour landowners, an 82-year-old woman put a bucket of human excrement onto a neighbour’s land.

The Circuit Civil Court, in Killarney, heard that a stone wrapped in a “manure bag” had been put down a manhole on the woman’s property, blocking the plumbing. Photographs of the blue bucket “and its contents” were handed to court.
