A 40-year-old Dublin woman has pleaded guilty to sending threatening online messages to the Tanaiste.

The messages to Simon Harris were read out in the Dublin District Court this morning.

A Detective Garda told the court around six online messages were sent to the Tanaiste at the end of August.

One said ‘blood on your hands you murderer’, another said ‘f you.’

Another read - 'I hope someone does something to your family' and questioned if a member of his family was sexually assaulted, would he sort the country out.

Another said ‘butlet in the head you need’ which gardai believe meant bullet and was mispelled to circumvent online safety protocols.
