Cork man who can't accept break-up shows up to ex's home with groceries and love letters, court hears

Garda Stephen Cleary told the court the man’s wife has had to get a barring order against him because of the persistent and continuing pattern of communications.

A 42-year-old man who cannot accept that his marriage is over - despite the break-up happening four years ago - is turning up twice a week at the family home with groceries and love letters.

Garda Stephen Cleary made that allegation at Cork District Court, saying the man’s wife has had to get a barring order against him because of the persistent and continuing pattern of communications.
