Woman stole cans of Red Bull from Louth shop while under a good behaviour bond
Woman (38) stole three cans of Red Bull from Mace, Castletown Road in Dundalk six days after she had been placed under a Probation bond to be of good behaviour
A 38-year-old woman who stole three cans of Red Bull from a local shop, six days after she had been placed under a Probation bond to be of good behaviour, was given a three month suspended sentence at Dundalk district court.
Nicola Kavanagh of Barton Park, Dundalk was prosecuted for theft arising out of the incident at Mace, Castletown Road, on May 27th last year.
The court heard she was one of two females who had entered the premises around 11.52am and left without paying for the items she had taken.
The defendant had 50 previous convictions including 26 for theft.

The Defence solicitor explained that there was a lot going on in a domestic setting and the relationship had now ceased and his client is effectively trying to built her life back up.
He added she was pleaded guilty as she doesn't want to waste the court's time.
Judge Nicola Andrews imposed a three month sentence, which was suspended for 12 months on her own bond of €100 to be of good behaviour during that period.
The judged added if Ms Kavanagh wanders back in over the next 12 months "I will send you down to Mountjoy - that's it - the end of the road".
