He later threatened to send intimate images to her parents and made threats to send the photos and other items, including a sex toy, to the woman’s younger brother. The man persistently asked her to meet and became angry that she was not willing to. He had made multiple threats to distribute intimate images of her by this point. Around this time the man started to persistently email the woman, with some emails having intimate images of her attached. The garda witness agreed with defence counsel Dean Kelly that while the man threatened to share the intimate images, he did not actually do so.
