flag A Dublin jury ruled Detective Superintendent Rory Sheriff used reasonable force in 2014 when striking former Garda John Bowe during a high-speed chase.

flag A Dublin jury has ruled that Detective Superintendent Rory Sheriff used reasonable force when striking former Garda John Bowe during a 2014 high-speed chase in Wexford, finding his actions justified after Bowe fled at over 140 kph, ignored police, and turned toward Sheriff with a metallic object. flag The civil trial, lasting eight days, concluded with a majority verdict in Sheriff’s favor, rejecting Bowe’s claim that he was surrendering and suffered a neurological disorder. flag Sheriff testified he feared for his safety, believing Bowe had a knife, and acted in self-defense. flag Judge O'Higgins awarded costs to Sheriff’s legal team, pending any appeal.
