Appeal by Gemma O'Doherty against conviction for public order offences postponed

Last September, the former journalist was convicted of threatening and abusive behaviour, refusing to give her name and address to a garda, and resisting arrest, all on a footbridge at the N11 in Wicklow

Garda Andrew Sullivan told the court that, during the incident, he and colleagues were told they were 'traitors to the Irish public', 'complicit with cover-up of paedophilia' and 'complicit in the cover-up of murder'. File Picture: Julien Behal/PA Wire

The appeal by former journalist Gemma O’Doherty against a conviction for public order offences has been adjourned until October.

At a brief court hearing at Bray Circuit Court on Monday, Mr Justice Patrick Quinn said he would keep the whole day free on Monday October 17 to hear Ms O’Doherty’s appeal.
