    She was arrested along with someone else, and been held in Sligo Barracks. That's pretty much what all the articles are saying.

    got word from a local garda who she is but can't put it up here for obvious reasons. think it's common enough knowledge in town at this stage. she's been released without charge while a file against her is prepared. i'd guess it's really a case of if found guilty whether she gets a custodial sentence, her time in the force would be over of course either way if found guilty.

    Fair play to the garda for catching one of their own if shes guilty.
    Bad apples being weeded out is good to see.

    From Sligo, based in dublin, questioned in Ballymote.

    If released without charge though, why is a file still sent to the DPP?

    So that the Director of Public Prosecutions can direct what charges to make, if any at all.

    So she, or anyone else who is released without charge, can still be charged, even though they have been released. Not just talking about this case, but in general.

    I'm pretty sure of the gang involved. Dont think I know her though. Good to see cops clearing up the mess. And that she has plenty of time to contemplate what she has done.

    I believe so, depending on her level of involvement or any persons level of involvement in a crime. I would check online sources for more credibility and with the lads in the legal discussion forum for more clarity and not just taking my word for it.

    Yes.
    The DPP reads the evidence supplied by the garda and then decides what charges, if any, should be brought against her. She can the be re-arrested for the purpose of charging.
    That's the way i believe it happens.
