Bail for man, 74, charged over threat to kill wife
Garda Marie Hennessy, who investigated the case, said gardaí were opposed to bail being granted to Tom O’Connor of 19 Millbrook Close, Sallybrook, Glanmire, who was arrested and brought before Cork District Court on a charge of breaching a safety order by putting his wife in fear by allegedly assaulting her.
Defence solicitor, Pat Horan, stressed that Mr O’Connor was 74 and had never been in trouble in his life and that if granted bail he would move out of the family home and stay with a relative at St Lappan’s Place, Little Island, Co Cork.
