Judge Dermot Sheehan imposes suspended sentence of two years
Limerick hurler Kyle Hayes ordered to pay €10,000 compensation for violent disorderThe judge also imposed a two-year term that he suspended in full for two years, stating society would not benefit if he were to impose a “immediate custodial sentence”.
Under cross-examination, prosecution barrister John O’Sullivan asked why, if that were the case, did he plead not guilty, prompting a two-week trial. When Mr McCarthy began chatting to one of the women, Hayes became aggressive, asking him: “Do you know who I am?” Mr McCarthy was punched and kicked while lying on the ground. The attack ended when gardaí arrived and Hayes fled.
