Teen girl remanded for New Year's Eve assault on 'adopted gran'
A teenager who was one of three people who launched a violent, frenzied assault on her "adopted grandmother", a male guest and a disabled woman as they celebrated New Year’s Eve has been remanded in custody until sentence later this year by Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.
Amanda Cleary (aged 19) and accomplices set the disabled woman’s clothes on fire and doused her with boiling water, as well as using knives, a glass, a shovel and a crutch on the male victim on whom they also poured three saucepans of boiling water.
