Woman who was woken by drunken intruder in her bedroom is told 'I don't have the wrong house'

A 63-year-old woman woke to find a drunken intruder in her bedroom and when she told him he might have walked into the wrong house he raised his voice aggressively and said he was not in the wrong house.

Judge Brian O’Callaghan said it must have been frightening for the woman having the sanctity of her bedroom broken by Martin Hurley. He jailed Hurley for four years with the last 14 months suspended at Cork Circuit Criminal Court.
