Arrest warrant issued for Derry man who was due to be sentenced for revenge porn

An arrest warrant has been issued for a man who was due to be sentenced at Derry Magistrate's Court today for a charge of revenge porn.

Brian Thomas Boyle (34) of Carnhill in Derry had been due to be sentenced today after he admitted a charge of threatening to disclose a sexual image of a female on February 6, 2023.

Defence counsel Michael Donaghey said that his client had not appeared to face sentence on this charge as well as a charge of disorderly behaviour and criminal damage.

District Judge Barney McElholm said that Boyle had not co-operated with probation or attended court and so he issued a warrant for his arrest.
