The scale of her thieving from clients made jail inevitable for auctioneer Sinead O’Leary when she appeared in Wexford Circuit Court.

The 45-year-old from Cornwall, Killurin, stood in the dock while charge after charge was put to her – 52 counts of theft in all. In each instance her response to the court registrar was ‘guilty’.
