Caoimhe Busher

Caoimhe Busher is a probationer garda in Ireland who has been in the news following a High Court ruling that ordered the cessation of a disciplinary process against her. The court found the investigation into her alleged misconduct, stemming from her handling of information related to a 2019 road traffic incident, to be fundamentally flawed and biased. Busher, who has maintained her innocence throughout the proceedings, alleged that her probation period had been unjustly extended multiple times, infringing on her rights. The judge's decision highlighted the prejudicial nature of a letter from an investigating officer that prematurely suggested her guilt, ultimately deeming the disciplinary process irreparably damaged.
