KILDARE COURT: Woman's grave damaged and house windows smashed - claim
A woman claimed at Naas District Court that her mother’s grave had been damaged and the windows in her own home were smashed.
Before the court was Lisa Marie Kiernan, 30, whose address was given as 22 Killane Drive, Edenderry.
She faces an allegation of intimidation at Cloverhill Courthouse on August 9, 2022.
The defendant appeared before the court in Naas following an application by the gardaí to alter her bail conditions.
Det Gda Christine Brady alleged the injured party was challenged to a fight on a social media platform and her mother's grave was damaged - however she was not suggesting the defendant had anything to do with this.
The garda said that previous bail conditions covered signing on conditions and for the defendant to have no contact with the injured party, including on social media.
However a challenge to fight was made in a Facebook post and the DNA of the injured party’s children was questioned.
The garda said that the defendant had not signed on on three occasions at Tullamore garda station.
Linda Connors said that her mother's grave was “broke up”, windows smashed in her house and she got threatening calls. She also said her mother was called very bad names.
She said one of her children had missed 82 school days because of some of the incidents.
Judge Desmond Zaidan said the defendant is to sign on daily, keep her mobile phone charged for the gardaí to make contact and to reside at a named address. He said she is also to have no contact with the injured party.
He adjourned the matter to a later date for the preparation of a book of evidence. He said it is probable that the case will be heard in Dublin because the alleged offence had taken place there.
