    A man in his 20s has been charged with criminal damage by writing the word ‘rat’ under the name of Detective Garda Colm Horkan in a book of condolence that was left at the public counter in Blanchardstown garda station for the public to sign.

    Jason Hennessy (23) from Sheephill Avenue in Blanchardstown was also charged with violent conduct at Blanchardstown garda station while in custody for the criminal damage offence. He appeared before Judge Gerard Jones at Blanchardstown District Court this morning.

    Sergeant Alan Lynch told Judge Jones that on Friday June 19 he had put out a book of condolence to be signed for their garda colleague Det Garda Horkan and at 12.15pm was made aware that two men were at the book and it had been tampered with.

    When the book was examined, it was seen that the word ‘rat’ had been written under Det Garda Horkan’s name and the station stamp had been used to stamp the front of the book.


    I hadn't heard of this particular toerag before, but a quick web search provides quite a lot of evidence to suggest that this world would have been a far better place if his parents had gone to bingo instead of having a quickie on the night that he was conceived.

    Lowlife like him are breaking the laws of nature purely by his existence, if you really have to ask what law he broke (its in the op ffs) then maybe you should consider further education.

    He'll probably argue that he's dyslexic and was trying to write "rip".

    Although I don't get it, I thought scum only call people rats if they talk to the guards... He was a guard?

    A double digit IQ wouldn't exist in that family, and yes I can say this because I know them personally.

    He'll have his pick of men in the Joy in that case.

    His cell mate will have to carry the frying pan to bed.

    He has the kind of head that would look well lumped up with baton marks. Jesus, what would you be thinking doing something like this?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,727 ✭✭✭Nozebleed

    Criminal damage.

    The violent conduct is a subsequent charge.

    I would never, ever, tire of wearing a steel-cored baton off the fat, ginger cunt.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,727 ✭✭✭Nozebleed


    writing Rat on a piece of paper is not criminal damage...you do realise this? as sick as it is...the guards have no right to arrest this guy for writing an insult in a book of condolence.

    Technically it is, defacing property of others.

    I wholeheartedly agree, arresting him is totally inadequate. See my other post.

    Wasn't he the scumbag that taunted the two guards from inside a gate of a house on the Virgin Media show "Inside the K" ?

    Edit: I see comments that he is indeed said scumbag

    im not so sure..its placed there for the public to express their opinion of the deceased..horrible thing to do. think the guards are stretching it a bit here.

    He damaged property that wasn't his, not only was it written on, it was interfered with also.

    fuck him, and fuck you - trying to defend him.

    Schools across the country should have hundreds of euro in damages claims from scribbles on their books following this precedence.
