Accused applying for bail in Cork shoplifting case claims she has her shopping done online

Gardaí were totally opposed to bail being granted to 39-year-old Yvonne Carroll as they believed she would carry out more shoplifting on release

She said: “I don’t need all the things—all ours was bought online. I don’t need the hustle and bustle of shops.” File picture: Larry Cummins

Gardaí objected to bail being granted to a woman accused of shoplifting because they believed she would go straight back into the hustle and bustle of Christmas shopping and steal again if released.

However, the accused denied this, adding that she had all her Christmas shopping done online.
