Case of 'false claims' woman adjourned for report

The sentence of a woman described as a "nut and fruit case" after she made a series of false claims to the Gardaí of murder, shooting, stabbing, and house fires and of being with a reported abandoned baby has been adjourned again pending a psychiatric report.

Ann Lynch (aged 37) with a current address at Fortlawn Avenue, Blanchardstown had a history of ringing ‘999’ and made 99 silent calls "with heavy breathing" on one night alone, Sergeant Michael Drew told Dublin Circuit Criminal Court when evidence was heard on March 15.
