Cork District Court heard the 54 year old, rang Gardaí on the 5th of April 2008 and threatened that Judge Joseph Mangan along with a local Garda in Cork were to be shot by unnamed people from Limerick.
Judge Con O Leary initially sentenced Mr O Brien to one month behind bars but then adjourned the case until the end of January following a submission from the defendant’s solicitor.
