Father who ‘blew his top’ and punched daughter (8) avoids jail

The former reserve garda pleaded guilty at Dublin District Court to two counts of assault



In Dublin, a father who punched his eight-year-old daughter in August and September 2021 avoided jail after completing parenting and anger-management courses, and providing €5,000 compensation. Judge John Hughes cited the man's frustration and the good relationship with his daughter as factors. The compensation will be held in trust until the daughter turns 18.
