Cork harassment victim: 'I was wondering how was he following me...I felt like an absolute lunatic'

After the tracker was discovered on her car, a garda told Fagan's ex-partner that 'this has taken a serious turn', writes Ann Murphy

In February, 39-year-old Seán Fagan, of Dunvale Crescent, Frankfield, Douglas, Cork, was sentenced to four years in prison, with the last two years suspended, at Cork Circuit Criminal Court for the harassment of his former partner.

Sitting in a courtroom all day while she sought a safety order was something the former girlfriend of Cork man Seán Fagan never thought she would have to do.

But 14 months after she had ended their two-year relationship, her life was starting a journey of more than four years on a legal route to get to a place where she felt strong enough to do something as simple as going for a walk by herself.
