A Dublin Circuit Criminal Court judge has told a woman who made “frightening” and “nasty” threats to her love rival to stay away from the apartment complex where her victim resides.
Audrey McKeever (38) pleaded guilty to charges of making threats to kill or cause serious harm and criminal damage at an apartment complex in Crumlin on December 20, 2022.
Detective Garda Jason Weir told prosecuting counsel todaythat the injured party was in a relationship with the man McKeever has had an on-and-off relationship with for a number of years.
Dublin Circuit Criminal Court heard there was an issue between the women which escalated and McKeever of Emmet Crescent, Inchicore, Dublin 8 went to the apartment complex where the victim lived.
The victim went inside to get away from McKeever. As she closed the outer door of the complex, McKeever kicked it, breaking the magnet on the lower part of the door and causing over €1,000 worth of damage.
McKeever was heard by the victim shouting that she was going to kill her and “dance all over her daughter’s head”. The victim was terrified by the threats and could hear McKeever looking for her in the complex, repeating the threats. While McKeever knew the woman lived in the complex, she was not aware of her exact address.
An independent witness heard McKeever call the victim a “homewrecker” and say she was going to kill her.
At 8.50pm on the same night, McKeever posted material on Facebook including that she “needed to calm down” and was “ready for the charge she’d get for you”. She described the victim as a “waste of space” and said she would be back every night.
Gardai were called and CCTV was obtained, which showed McKeever arriving at the complex.
After her arrest, McKeever was fully co-operative with gardai, made admissions and identified the relevant Facebook posts.
