A Longford mother of four has said she would rather go to jail than pay any compensation money to a woman she dragged back by the hair along the county town’s Main Street last year.
Claire Hishon (31), 5 O’Connor Park, Longford, delivered the ultimatum at a sitting of Longford District Court last week after she appeared charged with assaulting Gemma Kirwan at Main Street, Longford town on November 18 2020.
“I am not giving any more money to her,” she told Judge Hughes after Ms Hishon’s defence solicitor Frank Gearty said the row revolved around €150 which had been given to Ms Kirwan and not repaid.
