Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan said at a news conference Monday that Bady had been a boyfriend of Dickey’s “for some period of time."
Police said they received a call earlier June 14, shortly after midnight, saying a male and a female were fighting outside. The caller reported a female screaming, “Get off me, get away from me, I don’t want to be with you anymore.” The caller also reported hearing gunshots, police said.

She’s 15 and in 8th grade. He’s 21. In no way is this OK.

Yeah, it is. I found this in a very trans online space, so the gender swap thing is of course something a lot of transfem folks are drawn to, but the commentary in the quoting skeet rang very true and I felt it was worth sharing.

Crotty was handed a three year suspended sentence at Limerick Circuit Court after he pleaded guilty to the attack.

THAT’S FUCKING ALL?

Oh, and he might be dismissed from the defense forces. After he beat a woman unconscious and bragged about it on social media.

Yeah. I hope the sentence will be appealed. I don’t know how likely this is.

The judge claimed that a custodial sentence would end his army career. The equivalent of being a middling athlete I guess.
