Yes but its not that easy to get into a skull. Might have to bring her down to the Mater for that.

Any hand that goes into that abyss will pop out of Simon Harris mouth with a speech about how lovely Leo was and we are now within a chance of fixing the country.

I just want to point out to all the "There's no free speech in Ireland!" types before they get in here claiming she's being silenced or some crap.

Read the article for why she's up in court.

Gemma has consistently been promoting Neo-Nazi ideas, Holocaust denial and other extreme views on any platform that would have it and not once was she lifted for any of this.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/122001695#Comment_122001695

but are any of those ideas of hers illegal?

i don't support her or her views, just interested to understand what laws shes alleged to have broken. And no, haven't read the article as its behind a paywall.

She's failed to appear in court repeatedly, a bench warrant was issued a few weeks back,

O’Doherty is alleged to have used the image and details of a young man called Diego Gilsenan, who died by suicide, in articles in her publications that incorrectly linked his death to Covid 19 vaccination.

Gilsenan's mother, Edel Campbell, secured a High Court order compelling O’Doherty to cease to use his image, along with orders not to harass or intimidate her, or disclose any confidential information about Ms Campbell and her family.

It is alleged that O’Doherty has not complied with that order, and has refused to come before the Hight Court to face charges of being in contempt of court.

Her arrest today was the latest (and only successful) attempt to bring her before the High Court - the Gardaí claiming that numerous previous attempts were not successful.

Any idea what she was being called to court for? Not a fan of hers, just trying to get a wider picture

RTE:

"Ms O'Doherty asked if she was to be released from custody to which the judge replied yes, but said she must give an undertaking to attend court on Friday.

Ms O'Doherty asked if she should bring a suitcase on Friday to which the judge replied: "Yes, in the event that I decide the case against you."

He adjourned the case until Friday."

Arrested because she didn't show up to court. Judge now releases her and trusts that she will show up to court on Friday… Something inside the system is broken

The absolute misery and pain that appalling husk of a human has inflicted on that family over the past few years is appalling. A dreadful and deranged woman.
