A top Garda Representative Association official, Ronan Slevin, faces formal investigation for speaking out on internal issues — a move GRA calls a shocking attempt to silence elected voices advocating for officer safety. This follows RTE’s exposé on whistleblower targeting, and ties to the Garda Code’s media rules. While An Garda Síochána won’t comment on the case, they’ve repeatedly reminded GRA of their communication policies. The GRA insists they’re defending members’ right to speak — especially after a documentary revealed systemic problems — and says management is punishing those who highlight dangerous conditions, despite claiming to uphold constructive industrial relations.

A 70-year-old man from Coalisland, wanted in Galway for sexual assault and false imprisonment dating back to 2022, turned himself in to police in Belfast — only to be slapped with an extradition warrant. In court, he denied all charges and refused to return to Ireland. The judge granted him bail with strict conditions: a £5,000 cash deposit, curfew, electronic tagging, and mandatory weekly check-ins. His next court date is October 9th, as this high-stakes legal battle between jurisdictions unfolds.

Two teens in their late teens pulled off a wild, high-speed chase in a stolen car — including driving the wrong way on the M50 and crashing into a Garda vehicle — before being arrested Thursday night. The car was reported stolen Wednesday morning in Coolock. Officers from Mountjoy and Blanchardstown conducted a “managed containment” operation across Dublin suburbs, ending with both teens taken into custody. One is already charged and due in court; the other is being referred to the Youth Diversion Programme. The investigation remains open.

Bohemian FC is staying at Dalymount Park through May 2027, but game days are changing—floodlights are being removed, Friday night matches are history, and the iconic Tramway End terrace is gone. Their last lit-up home game? October 23rd vs Shelbourne. The club’s back at Dalymount for the 2029 season, but in the meantime, they’ll split games across multiple venues. Upgrades are underway to make their home ground better than ever—just expect some temporary chaos before the lights come back on.

Five teenage boys died in a head-on crash on the M9 after their car went the wrong way – but police acted lawfully during the pursuit, according to the ombudsman. Four others were seriously injured, including a child. This is the sixth similar incident in six years, highlighting a recurring pattern that’s now under independent review. The Police Ombudsman offered condolences and affirmed her role in safeguarding human rights amid these tragedies.

A thirty-six-year-old man, Stephen McCullagh, is set to stand trial in November facing nineteen serious charges—including voyeurism and possession of indecent images—spanning sixteen years from 2007 to 2023. Allegedly recording twelve women during private moments, some for sexual gratification, McCullagh has pleaded not guilty. The case, previously shrouded in a reporting restriction, has now been lifted by Judge Patrick Lynch after both defense and media agreed open justice is appropriate. This high-profile trial marks a pivotal moment in balancing privacy with public transparency—and it’s one the nation will be watching closely.

Step into the heart of Ireland’s countryside with the Stewart family, whose five-hundred-acre farm in County Longford has been passed down since 1938—and now, their story is alive in a new book called “An Irish Family Farm in Twelve Fields.” Think “Clarkson’s Farm,” but with soul: meet Cliff the cleft-lip heifer, Tripod the one-legged bull, and Blind Mary who lost her sight to meningitis—all beloved members of this quirky, resilient family. Don’t miss Friendly, the over-the-top bull calf who’d barrel through life (and people) for scratches, or Bent Neck Lady, named after a Netflix ghost, who became a milking queen despite her crooked neck. And yes, they’re eco-warriors too—installing a reed bed system that turns runoff into near-drinkable water, reclaiming unusable land while keeping things green. This isn’t just farming—it’s living history, one hoofprint at a time.

Military officers leading the EU Presidency security operation are being left unpaid for grueling 24-hour shifts, sparking outrage as their loyalty is exploited and basic allowances ignored — while other units suffer from understaffing. RACO, their union, threatens legal action, echoing concerns from PDFORRA, which has previously sued over unresolved grievances and now demands an adjudicator to prevent costly court battles. Meanwhile, reservist modernization efforts crawl at a “glacial pace,” with projects falsely marked complete — stalling recruitment despite urgent manpower needs. The Defence Forces Press insists the mission is a success and all personnel are compensated, including compensatory time off — but frontline officers say the reality falls far short of that claim.
