3 Months for Dancing on top of the Fountain in Cark

Hazys

3 months seems a bit harsh considering the length of other sentences for other very serious crimes, but he did resist arrest and the had to bring down and pay for a fire truck to get him down. But sure he's only having a bit of dance, like...

So legend or Idiot?

Dont really give a god damn about that gobs&^te on top of the fountain, the first vid though was fairly well made though!

My opinion.....idiot.

That's a great fuckin Song

VERY harsh sentence in fairness, I know a girl who got 4 month for assaulting 2 guards, resisting arrest and a few other charges.

admiralofthefleet

he gets 3 months for having a laugh and child abusing catholic scum get off scot free
makes sense:rolleyes:

TanG411

Yes, Cork is awesome

jaffa20

Harsh sentence but yet he is an idiot so hard to feel sorry for.

Lizzzard

Complete gobsihte, deserves what he got. With the amount of drunk idiots on the streets its about time someone got locked up for carrying on like this. Hope he's having the worst time of his life inside haha.

My name is URL

haha beat that Bollocko!

Lia_lia

You serious?

People are always in that stupid fountain.

I think its the appropriate sentence that that carry on should receive but I also think its well harsh in comparison with the lenient sentences handed down to those convicted of more serious crimes.

I love the second video though, it is quality.

Hope they're not that strict right here in Galway or dr.bollocko's fucked.

Think a fine would have been more appropriate. He didn't hurt anyone, just cost the state a few shillings. Now, by locking him up, he's going to cost the state a few more!

OP, is there a link to this story? Is there a background we're not aware of?

Thrill

He repeatedly exposed himself as well, pulling down the front of his underwear to show off his junk.

I hate drunk* people.

* stupid idiots who drunk too much drink drunk.

No link i can find as of yet but apparently TodayFM are reporting he got 3 months.

Happened last Saturday night as far as i know.

I have a scar on my hand from being pushed into the fountain on Grand parade - I put my hand down to stop getting wet and it was cut by broken glass..... the guy is an idiot - and a drunken one at that.

Everyone loves having a laugh - but making an a$$ of yourself is the second lowest way of getting a laugh (the lowest being sarcasm).

if he wants to behave like that then its his perrogative - but he doesnt have to annoy/show off in front of others....would he do the same if there was no-one around (assuming he was still drunk).

Actually now that you say it, its very convient that their are very well placed high quality cameras placed up on buildings and in the crowd...me thinks this was pre-planned.

Nice song tho which they have to be given credit for.

pwd

source?

He didn't get three months for dancing on the fountain.

He was sentenced for exposing himself in public and engaging in conduct likely to lead to a breach of the peace.

abouttobebanned

My guess is he has a less than clean history.

jonsnow

he is an idiot.the guy who made the first youtube video is a legend however.Three months is too harsh but the judge is probably making an example of the guy.

He didn't hurt anyone but I can understand why he was given a harsh sentence. There are far too many drunk idiots about the place who have little or no respect for the law. You can't do whatever you want when you want. He made a nusiance of himself and now he's paying the price. Yes it may cost the state more money but it's making a statement. Hopefully it'll deter other people from acting like prats.

Is there any source for this story OP?
I wouldn't give him 3 months for that. Maybe an infraction or something.

Only heard it through word of mouth at the moment that it was reported on TodayFM...nothing on the Evening Echo or Irish Examiner websites as of yet.

Getting a little nervous are we?


EDIT: The story is supposedly on page 3 of today's examiner.

It's in the paper version of the evening echo. It says...

"Cooke was bare chested and he dropped his trousers. He was wearing red underpants. He pulled down the front of this several times, exposing his penis to the crowd of 300 to 400 people.

He also bent over and exposed his buttocks to the crowd. He washed the centre part of his buttocks." Garda sargent Aidan O' Connell told the court.

lostexpectation

some lad through a egg from a car blinded a women in one eye and got a fine...,the women refused to accept any apology or compo from the guy, so the judge just made him pay it to charity. the sentence for the above malarky was so harsh because he disobeyed a police order, judge always put the police above people's wellfare

Yep...

He jailed Cooke for three months for exposing himself in public and engaging in conduct likely to lead to a breach of the peace.

Was that last Saturday night? I saw a guy do the same but I saw no Santa hat, scarf, umbrella or indecent exposure, someone definitely did it though! He was up there ages.

typo on the poll leg end or idiot. i'd vote him a leg end.

Don't be worrying ,Doc.
The judges in Galway are much more lenient.

marxcoo

people are always on top of the fountain, I just assumed that's what it was there for. To be fair, it's only asking for trouble where it is, it should move down the road a bit.
3 months, ridiculous.
Cork IS awesome.

SeaFields

My buddy saw this last weekend and emailed me the link to the youtube vid.

Three months is FCUKING crazy. Absolutely ridiculous.

People with child porn on their pc's, people being convicted of rape and people in possession of large quantities of drugs are getting suspended sentences FFS.

Judge must have been on his period or something.

A fine would have been more than enough.

I think Dr.Bollocko is paying people on boards to post about people getting done in galway so he can get out of it:D

**MODS- feel free to put this in the conspiracy forum?**

wilson10

Two things came to mind when I watched the video, first I assumed this was in the summer and can't believe it was last week, he must have been frozen to the bone.

Secondly, he can't have been all that drunk to maintain his balance as well as he did, especially when he dropped his trousers round his ankles.

Gob****e, but the sentance was harsh when you see the bastards that walk free.
