A man guilty of harassing a Longford Senator is to be sentenced today.
David Larkin plead guilty to the harassment of Senator Micheál Carrigy over a number of days in December 2021 and January and February 2022.
The contact ranged from Facebook messages, to texts, to a voice mail, all of which included various threats to either the Senator or his children.
A victim impact statement from Senator Carrigy previously described how the messages left him in fear for the security of his family.
Earlier this year, Judge Bernadette Owens pushed back Mr Larkin's sentencing for the production of a probation report.
At Longford District Court in May, Judge Owens stated that David Larkin had been engaging with probation service and ordered a further probation report adjourning sentence for a further 8 weeks.
Mr Larkin will now appear at Longford District Court later today.
