Gregan of Main Street, Tullamore, Co Offaly, previously of Grove Park, Rathmines, Dublin pleaded guilty at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court to possession of child pornography at his Dublin home on June 13th, 2017.
She said the steps taken by Gregan to rehabilitate himself, the lack of subsequent negative garda attention and the time lapsed since the offence was detected “swing the balance against the immediate imposition of a custodial sentence”. Ms Small said her client had been attending counselling since the incident and had been placed on the sex offenders register. He continues to attend for treatment and is fully engaged in the therapeutic process.
She asked Judge Greally to accept the evidence that there was “no question of distributing or sharing” the images and that the images had been deleted.Judge Greally noted that the DPP directed a summary indictment for this charge, but the District Court had “quite rightly” refused jurisdiction based on the “severity” of the material.
During the earlier hearing in October 2019 Gda Jennifer Quinn told Philip Rahn BL, prosecuting, that on June 10th, 2017 an 11-year-old girl was in the Penneys shop with her friends when Gregan pushed up against her and squeezed her bum.
Again and again. To become a judge in Ireland, no need to go to expensive universities, you just need to know the right person. It is the same process for the politicians. That is why the country is in total shamble.
Why ?
Sick
Nolan the pedo protector
“I’m a normal, nice guy with a chemical imbalance”… good Jesus!!! What’s wrong with these judges?! Having these images should be treated the same as actually abusing a child because they’re driving demand for this horrific content.
Judge Nolan
Ireland has so much to admire
I despair 😔

Man arrested and Garda injured after demonstration at asylum seeker accommodationAt around 9pm last night, a number of protestors blocked an entrance to Columb Barracks in Mullingar. 'Illegal Economic migrants' not fleeing war or famine. Not one mother and child to be seen. We're being lied to daily. These are not genuine asylum seekers. We owe it to our ancestors and the future generations to fight to stop this plantation! Thousands of single men entering this country will destroy the social cohesion of the country and if they are granted stay they can bring 20 more people over. The government are destroying us! Very few locals, mostly reprobates from across the country. Rosaries and whiskey.
