Judge: Adults who broke lockdown at late night kid's birthday party 'don't care about Covid'

Gardaí who arrived at the party decided not to break it up as they were 'greatly outnumbered' by 20 to 30 partygoers

At Ennis District Court, Judge Mary Larkin said it was up to those people who attended the marquee event outside Ennis last February 'to wonder if they gave Covid to any relation'.

A judge said on Wednesday that adult party goers who completely flouted Covid-19 lockdown restrictions when attending a child’s birthday party until 1.45am “don’t care about Covid”.

At Ennis District Court, Judge Mary Larkin said it was up to those people who attended the marquee event outside Ennis last February “to wonder if they gave Covid to any relation and did anyone end up in hospital on a life-support machine as a result”.
