Anne-Marie Lawlor SC, defending Gallagher, said her client has a very limited intellectual capacity and was “intoxicated to an extraordinary extent” that morning. She said he is “desperately sad for what he has done” and he knows he “has to take the medicine” from the court. She said that God was on her side that day and he knew that she had to get out of the car boot. She said she can still to this day feel the pain from being thrown to the ground by Gallagher before he sped off in the car.

The woman said that “everyday life is only a vision of what I was” and added that she suffers flashbacks many times a day. “He took me from behind. I looked into his face as I lay in that boot. I was afraid for my life,” she concluded her statement.Detective Garda Paul Kirwan told Antonia Boyle BL, prosecuting, that he got a call to attend at the woman’s home and arrived that at 7.45am on the morning of the attack. The motorist who had stopped his vehicle, Eric Doran, had taken the woman home.

Gallagher’s DNA was later found in those scrapings. Cotton fibres matching the clothes Gallagher had been wearing were found on her clothing, allowing forensic scientists to conclude there was “moderate support” to the fact that Gallagher and the victim had been in a struggle. He denied the allegations and claimed he had gone to bed the previous night at 8pm and had not got up until 4.30pm that day. He said that injuries that the gardaí noticed on his arm were due to “a domestic” with his girlfriend.

Man, woman and baby injured in Mullingar road incidentA man and woman in their 30s, as well as a baby girl, have been injured after a car mounted a footpath in Mullingar earlier this evening. If the driving community would just stop normalising driving on footpaths, then this family would be fine. I assume someone was behind the wheel of this car, or did it just mount the footpath of its own accord? Oh no :( I've almost been run over a few times by cars driving on footpaths or mounting them because they took a corner too fast..
