A Clonmel man has been sentenced to 10 years for a brutal attack
on a female Garda.

24 year old Andrew Freaney from Elm Park in Clonmel, 
was found guilty by a jury on Thursday night of seriously assaulting
Garda Helena Power on October 31st, 2008.

The sentencing hearing heard that Garda Power’s right eye-socket
was fractured in four places as a result of the kick she received
from Freaney at a Halloween bonfire on Bianconi Drive, Clonmel.

Her eyeball needed 14 stitches while two operations were needed to
correct eyesight problems.

Three years of the sentence will be suspended on condition of good
behaviour after his release following seven years in jail.
