Photograph: Matt KavanaghA 24-year-old who was part of a group that inflicted life-threatening injuries on a man during an assault along a laneway near Temple Bar in Dublin has been jailed for three years and nine months.
Carol Doherty, prosecuting, told the court it was accepted that while Maguire could be seen striking at the victim with an implement, he was not responsible for the more serious head and facial injuries inflicted. She said the victim suffered slash wounds to his face, puncture wounds to his back, neck and arms and needed life-saving surgery.
Maguire pleaded guilty at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court to assault causing harm to the man. He has 51 previous convictions including for assaults. “It has shattered my life and I am living in a constant state of worry and sadness,” he said, adding that he now suffers from anxiety and avoids large social gatherings as he “constantly faces intrusive questions about his scars”. The man referred to the fact that most of the perpetrators “are still roaming free” which has left him with “a deep-seated frustration”.
