Ex-Convict Slams Ground After Bar Brawl

Gavin Naughton, fresh out of jail after serving 30 months — 4 of which were suspended — claims he was violently tackled by bouncers outside a pub on December 12, 2025, after they denied him entry. He says he was just trying to get in and was slammed to the ground, leaving him with cuts and bruises so bad the Gardaí let him go for medical care. The bouncers say he was aggressive and threatened them and their families. Naughton’s lawyer admits his behavior wasn’t great but argues he was wronged. The judge, citing his 31 prior convictions and the fact he offended while on a suspended sentence, sentenced him to two months in jail — with the suspended 4 months now potentially coming back into play. The final call on whether he serves those extra months rests with the circuit court. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
