Man ran ‘Europe's cheapest car park' in scam on school grounds
Jason Walsh (36) was caught several times charging up to 150 vehicles to park in the school after breaking the locks and getting in An intruder broke into a Dublin secondary school and turned the grounds into an unauthorised paid car park in a money-making scam. Jason Walsh (36) was caught several times charging up to 150 vehicles to park in the school after breaking the locks and getting in. Judge John Hughes said it must have been the 'cheapest car park in Europe' when Walsh maintained he only made €200 himself after donating half the proceeds to charity. Dublin District Court heard students' events had to be scaled back or cancelled to pay for the €1,000 of damage Walsh caused, and the judge told him to repay this or face jail. Walsh, of The Willows, Finglas Road, Glasnevin, pleaded guilty to trespassing, criminal damage and deception by inducing the public to pay for car parking on private property without permission. The court heard the caretaker at St Vincent's Secondary School, Finglas Road, Glasnevin, called gardaí after the locks on the front gates were broken and two men were parking cars on the grounds in exchange for unknown sums of money. The same thing happened again on two other days. Walsh had 181 previous convictions for offences including burglary. The accused apologised and indicated he was going to pay for the damage, his solicitor said. Walsh was trying to 'make a few extra quid' when he got involved in the offence with two other people. Judge Hughes told Walsh he had a 'good oul run of it' and when asked how much he had got from it, Walsh replied €200. The judge said with 150 cars, it was 'the cheapest car park in Europe, I'd say'. The court heard to pay for the damage, the school had to redirect funds from student events. Walsh said he was a recovering drug addict, rebuilding his life. The court heard he had suffered a lot of personal trauma, including the loss of a partner who was murdered. 'There's kids who didn't get to go on school tours because yourself and your buddies were running a scam,' the judge said. 'You are going to have to pony up the cash or you're going to jail.' Jason Walsh said he made €200. Photo: Collins Courts News in 90 Seconds - 3rd June 2025

House Republicans Vote to Kill Job-Creating Clean Energy and Manufacturing Investments and Tax Credits
WASHINGTON, D.C., May 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a nearly party-line vote, House Republicans passed a budget reconciliation bill that would effectively kill clean energy and manufacturing tax credits. Every single Democratic member of the House voted against the bill. This legislation introduces provisions that would effectively kill the job-creating investments in the Inflation Reduction Act by rendering the law's tax credits for clean energy and advanced manufacturing unusable and sunsetting them early. Recently released modeling from Energy Innovation found that the Republican bill would cost Americans more than 830,000 jobs for just the year of 2030, and 720,000 jobs for just the year 2035. These numbers do not account for the likely cancellations of planned clean energy manufacturing facilities. 'These clean energy tax credits have been a game changer for communities across the nation, including in the districts of the Republican representatives,' said BlueGreen Alliance Executive Director Jason Walsh. 'The GOP caved to the MAGA extremists in their party so they could screw over America's workers to stuff the pockets of billionaires.' Additional research suggests killing the credits will increase costs for American families. Other harmful provisions include: Repealing the Clean Vehicle Tax Credits; Repealing the Clean Hydrogen Tax Credit; Clawing back unspent funds for air quality monitoring in schools, clean manufacturing, state and community energy programs, and electric grid upgrades; Defunding and delaying the Methane Emissions Reduction Program (MERP), which reduces pollution and protects the health of workers and communities; Clawing back all unspent Inflation Reduction Act funds, including many provisions that would have lowered energy bills, created jobs, and reduced pollution; and Attacks on additional Inflation Reduction Act programs and initiatives. 'Every single Republican that said they were going to stand up for jobs in their districts either voted for this atrocity or didn't vote,' said Walsh. 'These folks just voted to kill good-paying jobs and huge private investment in their hometowns.' In March, a group of Republican Representatives, led by Rep. Andrew Garbarino (NY-2), penned a letter calling for the protection of the tax credits. Those Representatives are: Reps. Juan Ciscomani (AZ-6), David Valadao (CA-22), Young Kim (CA-40), Earl 'Buddy' Carter (GA-1), Mariannette Miller-Meeks (IA-1), Erin Houchin (IN-9), Don Bacon (NE-2), Thomas Kean, Jr. (NJ-7), Mark Amodei (NV-2), Nick LaLota (NY-1), Michael Lawler (NY-17), David Joyce (OH-14), Jennifer Kiggans (VA-2), Vince Fong (CA-20), Jeff Hurd (CO-3), Gabe Evans (CO-8), John James (MI-10), Ryan Mackenzie (PA-7), Rob Bresnahan (PA-8), Dan Newhouse (WA-4). While Garbarino himself did not show up for last night's vote, all the other signers voted for the bill. 'Now the fight moves to the Senate. We urge all Americans to call their Senators and remind them who they work for. We will not stand by as they kill family-sustaining, union jobs, increase energy prices, and surrender our manufacturing future to China while trashing our clean air and water,' Walsh said.

Washington County district attorney comments on child predator hunter group sting in Peters Township
Peters Township Police arrested a man on multiple child pornography charges after an online child predator hunter group tracked him down. William Jones was arrested this week, two months after the group's sting was broadcast live on Facebook. The group, known as Niky Sal, goes across the country and meets up with suspected predators after chatting with them online. They confronted the suspect behind Grande Restaurant where he worked. 'They are difficult to prosecute because the law in Pennsylvania doesn't allow a civilian to act in that manner,' said Washington County District Attorney Jason Walsh. In this case, you can watch the civilian explain to Peters Township police what is happening. He says in the video, 'he was telling me that he had some child porn in his phone that he needed to get rid of...' Police did a full investigation and retrieved child pornography. Walsh said in similar cases he has not been able to prosecute because they cannot take the sting operation to court. 'I understand they have their hearts in the right places, and no one wants child predators out there, we can all agree with that. But the best circumstance would be to alert law enforcement and not take things into your own hands.' Download the FREE WPXI News app for breaking news alerts.
